Over the past few years, I've made the shift towards making skincare purchases that have as many natural ingredients as possible. There's just something about putting chemicals with names I can't pronounce that creeps me out. Who knows what they're actually doing, let alone the effect they'll have on me long after the tube runs out.
Here are some skincare products we've come to love after much trial and error in the beauty aisle. The naturally-derived ingredients have made a noticeable difference to my skin and, without chemical fillers, my skin looks clearer and my hair feels healthier.
