Natural Skincare with Revolution Organics, Take 2

My first foray into the world of Revolution Organics Cosmetics had me embracing my natural side. With genuinely good for you ingredients, Revolution has taken the world of organic beauty by storm with their exceptional line of products designed to make you look and feel beautiful, naturally.

Free of dyes, fillers, and other harmful ingredients, the Revolution skincare line is a small collection of items that are multitasking, multipurpose, and altogether something special.

Revolution Organics All Over Skin Creme is a thick, super rich body creme designed to quench dry skin with an infusion of moisture. With over 15 organic ingredients which include aloe vera, shea butter, olive oil, and organic green tea, the all over creme instantly smooths and repairs dry damaged skin with all natural ingredients. The creme is relatively thick, and extremely hydrating without being greasy. If I had to be picky, I did not like the earthy scent to the creme. I prefer for my creams to smell like baked goods, but thats just me.

Revolution Organics Lip Balm is a vitamin packed, all natural, super hydrating lip balm. It is the truly the cure for dry, battered lips.

Revolution Organics Body Balm is a multipurpose, moisturizing stick. It smells of lemony goodness, and holds the cure to most of your skincare woes.

Here are some great uses for the handy dandy little miracle worker:

1. Soothe the cuts I get while pushing paper at my oh so (not) glam job in finance.
2. Smooth out my cuticles between manicures, because gnarly isn't pretty.
3. Tame hair flyaways, on those days it looks like I stuck my finger in a socket.
4. Soften rough elbows and knees, because dry skin isn't pretty.
5. Moisturize my flapping lips, because I talk A LOT.
6. An aromatherapy tool, to sniff when my cubicle becomes unbearably oppressive.
7. Condition an itchy scalp, because constantly scratching your head isn't cute.
8. Moisturize and prime face for makeup.
9. Soothe chafed skin.
10. Soothe the cuts I create when I rip my cuticle off with my teeth (yeah, you know you do it too).
11. Tame my unruly caterpillar brows.
12. Soothe the sting of a no-good mosquito bite.
13. Fix makeup mishaps (like smudged undereye liner).
14. Calm sunburned skin.
15. Moisturize and help heal chapped skin
16. Prevent cracks and cuts caused by dry skin


Revolution Organics has captured my heart, and I think that you will love it too. The full line is available on the Bigelow Chemist's website, as well as the brand's own website. Whether you are looking to go the organic route, or just looking to experience purer beauty, Revolution Organics is an excellent way to go.

Revolution Organics Makes Me Feel Beautiful, Naturally

If your body is a temple, then your face is a beautiful stained glass window. It luminates the temple, keeps unsavories out, and is just generally pretty to look at. You wouldn't take any old paint to touch up a stain glassed window, as you shouldn't just take any old makeup to your face. What I am trying to say is this: as a temple houses everything the windows let in, so do our bodies absorb the ingredients we employ to make ourselves gorgeous. Clearly, it is important to pay attention to what we use in our daily beauty routines.

Just in case I have completely confused you with my analogy, I will get right to the nitty gritty. I have touched upon the idea of using makeup that has good for you ingredients before, now allow me to continue on that note. With beauty consumers as a whole becoming more concerned with the ingredients in the products that they use daily, an overall move to all-natural, organic ingredients is being made by some manufacturers. Revolution Organics is a line that goes the organic route, utilizing ingredients in their products that are 100% natural, containing 85% certified organic ingredients. Unlike some fakers in the biz, Revolution is the organic real deal.

The Revolution line mostly houses organic skincare items ranging from body cream to lipbalms. Thankfully; they have just broken into the world of color cosmetics with their first color collection: Freedom. A relatively small collection, Freedom consists of 2 products that are designed to go the distance. The Freedom collection as a whole represents a fusion of simplicity, quality, ease of application, versatility, and appeal.

Freedom Glow Beauty Balm is a cream color stick designed to streamline your routine by offering up skincare and color in one neat twisty-tube. Containing moisturizing organic olive and coconut oils, this beauty superstar adds a natural, dewy hint of color wherever it is applied It is an amazing beauty multi-tasker, with the ability to flush (or warm) your complexion, adorn your eyes, or paint your pucker within seconds. As one who leaves myself less than ten minutes to get pretty on weekdays, I really appreciate the streamlining in my routine. The balm applies much like a cream blush would, sans icky stickyness. Blending is a snap, and the only tool you need to apply is your fingers.

Here are the three color choices: Blushed (rosy pink), Sunkissed (warm peachy bronze), and Bronzed (warm golden bronze). I am currently loving Blushed for a soft rosy glow on the apples of my cheeks.

Freedom Lipgloss is your typical beautiful lipgloss, with not as typical healthy ingredients. Containing all of the good stuff (like plant proteins and organic jojoba oil), and none of the bad stuff (like parabens, chemicals and artificial ingredients), freedom lipgloss is as beautiful as it is natural. It isn't sticky or tacky, packs a pigmented punch, has great staying power, and offers up high shine and sparkle. This gloss is unscented and tasteless, so those sensitive to smells and tastes will be happy to find this product lacks both.

The five color choices are: Freedom (true strawberry red), Truth (midtoned true pink), Integrity (shimmering mauve), Innocent (soft baby pink with sparkles), and Vibe (shimmering, golden peach)

Here is a close-up on Freedom on the lips. Isn't it yummy?

Revolution Organics is available at Bigelow Chemists, QVC, and other select retailers.
