Earth Wise Beauty Spotlight #6 ft. Chamomile & Lavender Hydrating Face Gel

It's been a while since one of my last spotlight posts. Welcome back!
We are talking about the *Chamomile and Lavender Face Gel today! This is one of the first products developed by Ava, that she has been selling for ten years.

This face gel is an organic, oil free moisturizer with an aloe base. As always, Ava's products are cold-pressed, organic, using unrefined oils, and hand crafted in small batches. Chamomile & Lavender is similar in its texture to Carrot-a-Day. This face gel can be used as moisturizer on its own, or underneath a heavier moisturizer if you feel the need. As of right now, in the summer, I can use this on its own without my face feeling dried out. Chamomile and Lavender face gel works for all skin types; normal, oily, combo, sensitive, acne prone, and dry.

Now that it is hot out, I find that I am needing more of a light moisturizer. Since this is aloe based, it is extremely soothing on the face. Before trying Earth Wise Beauty, I had never used an aloe based skincare product. Quite frankly, I find myself more drawn to aloe based products now and it's hard to turn away from them. That being said, this is perfect in the hot summer months especially if you keep it in the refrigerator. Just imagine coming home from being in the sun all day and then slathering this cool gel on your face! Now, how magical does that sound? I used this when I came back from the desert recently, and it helped sooth the irritation from my sunburn. Voila, just like that! If you're going on vacation, I highly recommend picking up a sample of this.

Ingredients:
Aloe vera barbadensis leaf fillet*, non-GMO tocopherol (vit. E), polysorbate 20 (naturally derived), Lavandula angustifolia (French high-altitude lavender) oil*, natural ECOCERT approved (for use in certified organic cosmetics) preservative {glycerin, Leuconostoc (radish root) ferment filtrate, Lonicera japonica (honeysuckle) flower extract, Lonicera caprifolium (honeysuckle) extract, Populus tremuloides bark extract, glucono-lactone}, carbomer, ascorbic acid (vit. C), Matricaria recutita (German blue chamomile) oil*, Rosmarinus officinalis (rosemary) leaf extract.*Certified organic. Aloe vera certified by the International Aloe Science Council (IASC) for purity and content.

Not only does this face gel soothe the skin, but it also helps reduce redness. The German Blue Chamomile also aids in this, plus adds anti-inflammatory benefits. The lavender and rosemary oils also help to reduce and heal acne. I would say this is the cousin to Carrot-a-Day in other ways than just the texture. Both Carrot-a-Day and Chamomile and lavender share some of the same ingredients, yet function in different ways. Lavender and Chamomile is a more gentle face gel which is especially great for sensitive skin. It is more moisturizing then C-a-D as well, and leaves your face feeling rejuvenated and calm. C-a-D is definitely more of a powerhouse, anti-spot reducing and tightening face gel. Both extremely effective, but in different ways. I wanted to bring this point up for those who may want a more gentle skin treatment for sensitive skin.

As always, thank you for reading! If you have any questions, feel free to ask!
