Lavender Love, Hugo Naturals Hand Sanitizer!

November 6, 2011

Hugo Naturals hand sanitizer french lavender

If you’ve ever taken a New York City subway then you’ll certainly understand the urgent need to want to wash your hands. As much as I love New York, I’ll be the first to admit that our subways can be dirty, smelly and downright gross. I remember a time or two when I touched something on the pole that I didn’t even want to know what it was! So what’s a germaphobe to do? Well if you’re like me, you’ll want to carry some hand sanitizer in your purse so that your delicate digits remain germ free.

Well in my quest to find more organic and cruelty-free beauty products I came across Hugo Natural Hand Sanitizer. Hugo Naturals uses the best natural ingredients, natural colors, essential oils and botanical extracts to create luxurious all-natural personal care products. Their hand sanitizer is 95% organic, gluten-free and vegan. It’s made from certified organic lavender essential oil, organic alcohol and aloe vera.

I do have to say that washing your hands is the BEST way to keep your hands germ free, however if you cannot get to a washroom, hand sanitizer is a great alternative; this product has been shown to kill 99.9% of harmful bacteria. This hand sanitizer doesn’t dry out your hands the way conventional sanitizers do, in fact it’s pretty moisturizing. After a few sprays my hands smelled of aromatic lavender which lightly fades away after a few minutes. The hand sanitizer doesn’t leave sticky residue and leave hands satiny soft.

Do you use hand sanitizer or do you wait until you can reach a washroom?

Pacific Shaving Company All Natural Shaving Cream

All Natural Shaving Cream - Pacific Shaving Company

The Pacific Shaving Company created a small line of natural and eco-friendly infused with essential oils and certified organic ingredients. Their All Natural Shaving Cream is fast becoming one of my favorite products mainly for it’s ingredients. This all natural formula contains aloe, shea butter, and sweet almond oil to keep you skin hydrated and smooth. White and Green Tea extracts were added for their anti-oxidant properties to protect against free-radical damage. The company even added Lavender which helps to calm skin.

Pacific Shaving Company describes the formula as low-lather but I found that the formula was thick and lathered well. This shaving cream is a bit more dense than other brands so a little will go a long way.

The 3-oz. jar may seem quite small at first but you will get 40 shaves (or more) out of it, it’s nice and compact. The scent is extremely light and very “clean” smelling, you won’t notice it after application.

Overall the I would say that I loved the shaving cream. The texture, the scent and the all natural ingredients work harmoniously  together. Shaving was smooth and nick free and most importantly my skin didn’t feel dry afterwards. This is my first experience with the Pacific Shaving Company and it was great, I can’t wait to try the rest of their line!
