SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT!
For those of you who are regulars here at TBB, you know how much I love Real Purity!
I have partnered with Real Purity for an exclusive discount just for you, my lovely readers!
We all know going organic and natural with our cosmetics can be difficult, since you’re paying more for quality products and ingredients.
To make this easier for you, Real Purity has provided me with a special discount code so you can save 10% off selected products! I know that might not seem like a lot, but when you add it up, every penny saved counts, right?
For a limited time only....
Real Purity has been creating quality cosmetics for 25 years and in celebration, you get to save 10% on the following products:
- Anti-Aging Creme
- Deodorant
- Eye Shadows
- Lipsticks
- Blushes
- Herbal Insect Repellant
Simply enter code: “Robin” at checkout and your discount will automatically be applied!
What’s also really cool about Real Purity (besides the fact that their products are formulated by a naturopath to be safe and holistic) is that they send you tons of freebies with every order. They could be lipstick, eyeshadow, or skin care samples…which is great so you can try them before you buy them!
But this special discount code won’t last…it’s only good through May 15, so start shopping now!

Posted by: | CommentsHello Toxic Beauty readers! I hope you enjoy this video on why and how to choose organic beauty products. It makes some great points about why it is important to delete synthetic products from your routine. The video mentions purchasing organic beauty products from the health food store but I want to remind you the Internet offers more affordable source for many beauty products, such as luckyvitamin.com. Enjoy and don’t forget to share your thoughts.
Stay natural…stay beautiful…go green!

Go Greeeeeen Tea!

Green tea is not only great for your heart, but for your skin and hair too.
Did the title catch your attention? I hope so…The benefits of drinking green tea are many: weight loss, increased metabolism, inhibiting the growth of cancer cells, and improving the immune system to name a few. Green tea contains EGCG, a powerful antioxidant which kills cancer cells while leaving healthy cells alone. If green tea is not part of your daily diet, it should be.
Green tea is so healthy in our diet but what can it do in our beauty products? There are times when your hair needs a break from regular shampoo and needs a clarifying shampoo to remove buildup of styling products. Enter Aubrey Organics Green Tea Clarifying Shampoo.
It deep cleans and rinses well leaving the hair healthy and manageable. It contains herbal extracts and nutrients which make the hair easy to style and cuts down on dry time (who doesn’t need more time in their beauty routine??) Green tea and nettle extract protect hair and tone the scalp. Aloe replenishes moisture while almond protein strengthens hair fiber, fullness, and manageability. You will be so pleased when you use this shampoo as it contains so sulfates, parabens, or chemicals. It’s also vegan and is not tested on animals. Here are the complete ingredients:
INGREDIENTS: Deionized Water, Coconut Oil-Corn Oil Soap, Organic Green Tea Extract (Organic Green Tea, Organic Nettle, Natural Grain Alcohol), Organic Aloe Vera, Carrageenan, Organic Lemon Peel Oil, Almond Protein, Organic Blue Camomile Oil, Aubrey’s Preservative (Citrus Seed Extract, Vitamins A, C and E).
You can explore the entire line of green tea products at Aubrey Organics.
Another company who have tapped into the power of green tea is Burt’s Bees. They make a collection of products utilizing this wonder ingredient. I was able to find a Green Tea set at Marshall’s (I am always looking for deals!) It contained a 12 oz. shampoo, 12 oz. conditioner, 8 oz. hand soap, and a soap bar. Burt’s Bees Color Keeper Shampoo and Conditioner uses green tea and fennel seed to help preserve color. This is a good shampoo, but when compared with Aubrey, I definitely like the results from the Aubrey collection better. My hair seems to stay cleaner longer than when I use the Burt’s Bees. If you decide to try both lines, it is up to you to decide which you like better. I’d love to hear your thoughts on the benefits of green tea or what is has done for you. Please leave me a comment.
Until next time, stay natural… stay beautiful… go green(tea!) -Robin
