This works for lighting dark spots. I have an old nose piercing that I don’t use anymore. This lightens and smooths the area. It also lightens black heads and dark spots on the skin.

This is a good all over body lotion with retinol. The retinol takes a few weeks to become noticeable. But it smooths out neck wrinkles well if you use it daily.

This is a nice natural lotion. I use it on my hands. I haven’t tried it on my face. But it is very light and not greasy.

Dr. Entre's Premium Foot Pads for Sleep

I am very glad I found this natural toothpaste at my local Indian Bazaar market. It works similarly to Ayurveda medicine. The herbs inside taste great and they are natural astringent so my mouth feels clean and there is no fluorite.
I was looking f...

I really love bamboo toothbrushes because they are biodegradable. Since it’s essential to change out toothbrushes regularly, it’s easy and convenient to have one that I can feel comfortable using. It is plastic-free and so I am not scrubbing with mic...

This is a great leave-in conditioner for after showers to use for protection from heat styling. The keratin makes the hair strong and shiny. It’s a very high quality product in my experience.
Keratin Leave-In Conditioner - 6 Ounces
Beautiful eyes
This isn’t considered a beauty product but clear white eyes are beautiful. Redness in the eyes is not only uncomfortable, it gives a tired vibe. So I like to use this daily to brighten my look overall. No stinging or burning like other eye drops.
