Alba Botanica Blaze Terratints Mineral Tinted Lip Balm, .15-Ounce Tube (Pack of 3) Review

I love this lip tint and I love this color (Blaze). It is my new favorite. I was really addicted to Burts Bees (it must be the peppermint in both of these products that I like so much). The one thing I don't like about the Burts Bees is the tube is so small, I always lose it, this Alba tube is the perfect size, like Chap Stick. Yes, this color is noticeable (which I like), but I still wear it at work, it does not seem harsh with my coloring. I am fair skinned with red hair and green eyes. It is a pretty earth toned reddish color. Bloom, is a great one with less color if that is what you are looking for. I have read some negative reviews about people buying this lip balm in the Sienna color online. I bought the Sienna at my health food store and it is kind of strange. Not the color, but the consistancy of the lip balm, where all the other colors are creamy and smooth, the Sienna feels like your rubbing a Crayola Crayon on your lips. Obviously, there must be something different in the ingredients in Sienna that doesn't do well if left too long on the shelfs. It is not just online purchases with this issue, as, I said before, I bought mine in a store. Don't judge this lip balm on that one color, because the rest of the colors are beautiful and SO wonderful for your lips! I no longer have dry cracked lips... I am glad I found this lip balm.

Alba Botanica Mineral Sunscreen, Fragrance Free SPF 30, 4-Ounce Bottle (Pack of 2) Review

Many of the "natural" sunscreens still have the chemical sunscreens in them that are carcinogenic. This one does not and is rated quite well at the environmental working group website for safety. I've tried 4 or 5 truly natural sunscreens that use titanium or zinc oxide. Some were horrific, this is one of my favorites. Just a warning the Burt's Bees Sunscreen was the worse if you're looking around at options, it went on so dry you couldn't spread it, it clumped, sweated off almost immediately, and it didn't work, I burned terribly. So, finding one that works for you is important.
But, I regress.... Any natural sunscreen with zinc oxide or titanium oxide will go on white. But, this one rubs on nicely and eventually as the sunscreen heats up it will become less white and eventually barely noticeable. The price and quality is very reasonable on this product.
The truly natural sunscreens like this are not overly water proof but once again this one was much better than most of the other's I tried. It at least could handle some sweat and wadding around in the water. If you were full on swimming I'd recommend reapplying often.
Over all, it worked well... I did not burn, it goes on reasonably well for a truly natural sunscreen, it's mildly water resistant unlike some that can't even handle sweat, and I did not burn while using it. I will buy this again when I run out.

I would buy this again. It has nice scrubbing granules, not too big like St. Ives, and not so small that you can hardly feel them...but just right. It has a fresh natural smell, which makes you feel good about putting it on your face. Good consistency to the cleanser, washes off easily. Overall, a fine product.

My family and I recently used this sunscreen during 10 days in Hawaii and it worked well. It protects even when you swim, though I do recommend reapplying after prolonged swimming just to be on the safe side. It has a mild, pleasant scent and is not greasy. This is a good daily sunscreen.

Alba Botanica Sea Plus Renewal Cream Review

I LOVE this cream! It's a $15 version of La Mer, only even better since they added DMAE, Alpha Lipoic Acid and Vitamin C (the Dr. Perricone "trilogy" of anti-aging must-haves) as well as hyaluronic acid (a great humectant that keeps moisture in). When I first started using it, I had red, flaky, extremely dry skin following a bad reaction to something (still am not sure what sensitized me so much). I tried everything to keep the skin from flaking and peeling (olive oil, baby oil, every moisturizer, etc). After one night of having this cream on my face, I was almost 100% healed of my dry skin. After 2 nights of using the cream, I was 100% healed.
Now that I have been using this seaweed miracle cream for about 2 weeks and my skin is happily hydrated, it can feel a bit greasy if you use it both in the morning and at night (especially since I only use a cleanser at night). Therefore, I went out to buy the seaweed-based daily moisturizer with spf to use for the mornings so that I don't start to get a build-up of blackheads from such a heavy cream.
I was SO impressed that this little $15 cream that I picked up at Whole Foods did what much more expensive creams couldn't do. Needless to say, I'm sold on the Alba Organics line now. I have also now tried their Pineapple Enzyme Mask to exfoliate (1x per week). It's great too as I have skin that can't handle regular mechanical exfoliation (I get red very easily).
Again, I love this product. If you have dry, couperose (prone to redness) skin...this is the cream for you! Just do some research on seaweed and you'll realize that this ingredient is THE BEST. Any other new cream or miracle potion out there likely has an ingredient in it that seaweed already has. And for $15, it's such a bargain!

Alba Sea Algae Enzyme Facial Scrub is terrific. Even with careful cleaning your complexion can get dull from layers of dead skin build up at any age. This scrub is mild and not too abrasive (of course you have to be thoughtful about how hard you press), leaving your skin with a vibrant glow. I've used this product for three years and find it to be valuable addition to my skin care regime.
