In the Sunday Style section of The New York Times there was a round-up article on nine multi-tasking beauty products and one of them was Revolution Organics All-Over Body Balm, ($28) which I’ve been meaning to write about! I’ve been using it on and off for the last few months and it’s wonderful for on-the-go moisture. The balm looks like an over-sized chapstick, but the cool thing about it is that it has over 22 different uses (from relieving chapped lips, to soothing dry spots, to nourishing dry cuticles)! Such a useful space-saver in both my bathroom and my handbag. More recently though I tried out the Revolution Organics All-Over Skin Creme
, ($33)
which I’ve been using when I’m on the move as well (it’s a travel-friendly size), on my hands (though you can use it anywhere, I don’t find it greasy enough to use on my body). It has a lemon meringue pie sort of smell which I surprisingly like (the products are scented only with USDA-certified perfume blends). Plus like all of Revolution Organics products it has a certified organic USDA seal (meaning its held to the same standards as the food we eat), it’s free of chemicals, parabens, synthetics, artificial ingredients, and fillers (including water!). All the products in this line come in small packages, but don’t be alarmed by the seemingly high prices given their sizes (especially the Skin Creme) — the products are potent enough that you’ll only need a little (remember they don’t use fillers!).
