Botox® is one of the most commonly performed non-surgical anti-aging cosmetic procedures in Canada. The age range varies from people in their 20s to those in their 60s and 70s. Although women were the first to adopt Botox, more and more men are now gladly lining up in front of their cosmetic doctor’s office to freeze away frown lines.
That said, I thought it would be interesting to see how readers would react when I feature a new product that is dubbed “the natural Botox”.
I recently attended the launch for Kosmea, a “clean” skincare line from Australia that was launched more than a decade ago by Marie Jenkins, an unemployed-stay-at-home-mom, who discovered the anti-aging virtues of rosehip oil.
During the presentation, Marie featured her “Eight Natural Wonder” Revitalising Facial Serum, which contains organic rose hip oil and hibiscus extract as the “natural Botox”.
Now to be fair, there is nothing on the market that resembles Botox. Botox is Botox and most of the other products on the market that claim to be “better than Botox” are really playing off of the success of the brand.
That said, if you don’t want to use Botox but you are looking for a way to rejuvenate your skin naturally, “Eight Natural Wonder” might be the solution you’ve been looking for.

Juice Beauty Green Apple Peel is perfect for sensitive skin
If you have sensitive skin, you might want to consider the Juice Beauty Green Apple Peel. Since this is a peel, if you do have particularly sensitive skin, you might want to do a patch test before applying it all over your face. Sephora is really good at giving out samples for people to try before buying the product and you’ll definitely want to do that if your skin is extra-sensitive.
Juice Beauty Green Apple Peel is milder alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) treatment formula that can be used every day.

Juice Beauty: Affordable anti-aging organic skincare products
There are quite of number of skincare and anti-aging products on the market that are sold at natural health foods, Whole Foods Market and now many traditional departments stores … so, finding organic skincare products is no longer a mystery or a complicated task.

Jurlique launched a new eye cream
Jurlique is the first line of organic skincare line that I tried and I still use it today (eight years later).
Jurlique has recently undergone a complete facelift of their packaging and they’ve also introduced a few new products to the line. Don’t worry, the quality has not changed, the entire line is still paraben-free, organic and biodynamic. A little packaging-rejuvenation has done nothing to alter the company’s commitment to consciously-chosen ingredients and resources.

Industry certification for organic skincare and makeup products in North America
Did you know that organic products are not regulated?
Yup, that means that sometimes it says organic…but it’s not quite that organic. Sometimes it’s just one product that’s organic, but some manufacturers have a nice sleek way of presenting that lonely ingredient in a way that might make you think that ALL the ingredients are organic.
Cosmetic giants by L’Oreal Paris, Estee Lauder, and Aveda are among the companies who have created a new regulatory body called OASIS. OASIS is the first U.S. industry standard that will have the task of certifying organic beauty products.

Uvalla is a French organic skincare line that is now available to North Americans
I still remember when I first started using organic skincare, there were very few lines and most of them didn’t even bother including a range of anti-aging skincare products. Things have come a long way in the world of organic skincare and it’s partially thanks to pioneer companies such as Dr. Hauschka Skin Care and Jurlique Skin Care.
Today, we can thank the Brits for producing more organic skincare than any other country. If you’ve been reading my posts lately you’ll notice that August is looking like “organic” and “clean” skincare month.
I’m about to add to the already long list of organic skincare products I’ve reviewed from England!
Nude Skincare: organic and very eco-friendly!
I must have been influenced by the debut of the Planet Green on Discovery Channel, because I seem to be on a green, organic and eco-friendly product tangent.
Nude is another line that I’ve been trying lately and I quite like it because it’s ideal for my sensitive skin.
Nude is part of the strong new trend we see coming from the U.K. If you’ve noticed lately, I’ve been featuring a lot of brands from the U.K. The Brits are taking up organic skincare with a vengeance and Nude Skincare is testament of the strength of this movement.
Nude Skincare is organic and very eco-conscious.
