Hi Everyone!! I was so excited to start blogging but when I found out that Hugo Naturals chose me to review 3 of their products I thought this would be the perfect first blog!!
The first product is their Kumquat Brown Sugar Body Polish.
Let me just say: YUM!!! It smells so good, you'll want to eat it!! Which leads me to the next point I wanted to make!! That is... it smells so good you'll want to eat it, maybe not rub it all over your body so you smell like a yummy piece of candy! However, it was SO worth it b/c the little tiny scrubbers in the polish gently exfoliated my poor dry skin!! My feet, which have been callused for as long as I can remember, actually started to feel a little bit softer after just a few scrubs!! Yay!!
I would say by day 3 I noticed a difference in my skin, especially my feet. After 2 weeks of use my skin was almost moist to the touch instead of dry and scratchy feeling. It didn't last the full 30 days (probably because I loved it so much I over used it... that is until the end of the jar when I started being very careful to not use too much so it would last me as long as possible!)
The bottom line is, if you want your skin and feet looking and feeling younger you can't go wrong with this scrub!!! The other upside is even though it has an amazingly yummy smell, once you rinse it off and wash your body you don't get out of the shower feeling like you'll attract all types of bees and bugs!!
Next up is the Handcrafted Grapefruit Bar Soap.
This soap is so much better than your ordinary soap!! It actually has a scent that you'll love. It's refreshing and seriously like the package says, energizing! It's not that 'clean' smell that you're used to with regular bar soap! I think that's what I loved most! It isn't overly moisturizing in my opinion, but you feel clean after using it!! You will not regret giving this soap a try, especially on those mornings where coffee just isn't enough!!! (A quick side-note: My husband loves their Handcrafted Spearmint Bar Soap!!)
Last and certainly not least comes the Vanilla & Sweet Orange All Over Lotion
This right here was my absolute favorite!! Just like their other lotions (especially the Oh-So-Soft Chamomile & Vanilla Baby Lotion) this one is amazing!! My only honest downfall to report would be the size of the container!! We seriously need a jumbo sized, bulk container of this!! My children (all 4) come running when they know I'm ready to use this stuff!!! I was again a little hesitant before using it because I didn't want to smell like those frozen push up pops we all used to have as a kid!!! That's exactly what it smells like too!! Haha!! I am so glad I got over that because the lotion is so moisturizing. It melts right into your skin!! You don't feel all pasty and sticky after putting it on, which was a huge plus in my opinion. I don't have the time to sit around and wait to put my clothes on waiting for my lotion to soak in!! That just isn't an option in my life! I put it on as soon as my skin is dry and with in I'd say about 5-7 minutes which works perfect for me. It gives me the time to do my other daily routines like brushing my teeth, etc. I would constantly go back for more lotion on my hands through out the day! This was the first period of time in the winter that I can remember not having dried, cracked, bleeding hands!! My skin is prone to being dry and scaly looking. I was pleasantly surprised to find my hands so much softer... and in the middle of winter at that!!
Many of you who know me, also know that I love natural, organic, good for you ingredients... not only in the foods we eat, but also in the products we put on our bodies!! Our skin is our largest organ and it absorbs anything we put on it. Would you consider taking a bath in a bunch of chemicals that can cause all sorts of diseases and health problems? Then why risk putting those same chemicals on your skin by using those conventional skin care products? Many of them contain those harmful chemicals.
The plus side about Hugo Naturals is all of their products contain all natural, food grade ingredients. They are free of petrochemicals, animal fats, paragons, silicone's, formaldehyde, hydroquinone, phthalates, propylene glycol, and synthetic surfactants! Their products are never tested on animals, are gluten free too! In addition to all of that (as if that wasn't enough already) all of their products carry the following two seals:
and
The first logo is the leaping bunny. Basically they are nice to animals! The second logo is the Celiac Sprue Association. In short, it means they are committed to providing you with gluten free products!
Hopefully you'll give one of these amazing products a try, or any of their other all natural products, you won't be disappointed!!
*Hugo Naturals provided me with all three full sized products listed above. I was in no way paid for my honest opinions.
