Cruelty Free: Body & Bath

When it comes to bath and body products, I’m a real adventurer; I’m always trying something new, though I’m loyal to some of my favorite finds. In addition to choosing animal-friendly products, I’ve tried to eliminate products with parabens and sodium lauryl or laureth sulfate. In my bath area, there’s always a good mix of “luxury items” (translation: costly but worth it) and items that are easier on the wallet.  I’ll leave the topic of “saving face” (cleansers, scrubs, masks, and facial moisturizers) until tomorrow…

Here’s what you’ll find in my bathroom:

at the sink –

EO Essentials Hand Soap (Orange Spice)
Nature’s Gate Organics Hand Soap (Lemongrass and Clary Sage)
Nature’s Gate Fragrance-Free Moisturizing Lotion for sensitive skin
Sparitual “Instinctual” Organic Moisturizing Lotion

Trader Joe’s Toothpaste with Fennel, Propolis, & Myrrh
Desert Essence Dental Floss with Tea Tree Oil
Dr. Tung’s Smart Floss
