Brand:Pangea Organics
Product:various skin care

 Pangea Organics was founded with the idea that ingredients supplied by Mother Nature (versus synthetic, sulfate or detergent materials used by other brands) are the way to better, healthier skin. By using all-natural, organic bases, oils, scents, and other ingredients, daily use of the Pangea Organics skin care line can improve your skin's texture and appearance, as well as your mood. They use only the finest essential oils to calm, awaken, and enhance your mood and senses. Here are some products I have tried & tested that should be a part of your daily eco-friendly, zen-inducing beauty routine:

 

In the shower: Pangea Organics Shower Gel, $13.99

The shower gel provides the “cleanest clean possible.” There are no sulfates, detergents or preservatives which means that your skin and the environment will be in good health. There are several scents to choose from, each having their own unique effect on the senses.

Each formula is designed specifically for particular skin types, such as Indian Lemongrass with Rosemary, for normal to oily skin. I used the Canadian Pine with White Sage which provides balance for the body and uplifts the mind. It is formulated for demanding skin, and within a few days, I noticed my skin was brighter; the tone and texture had improved dramatically. 

Scents:

*Indian Lemongrass with Rosemary

*Italian White Sage with Geranium & Yarrow

*Canadian Pine with White Sage

*Malagasy Ylang Ylang & Linden Flower

*Egyptian Basil and Mint

*Pyrenees Lavender with Cardamom 

 

Post-shower: Hand & Body Lotion, $15.99 

Each all-natural, hydrating lotion is made with a blend of carefully selected organic ingredients, to give a full-sensory experience. As with the shower gel, each lotion has its own unique effect and compliments the shower gels. The great thing about the two is that you can mix and match them to create your own, one-of-a-kind experience. 

Scents:

*Chilean Red Clover with Geranium & Grapefruit

*French Chamomile with Sweet Orange & Lavender

*Indian Lemongrass with Rosemary

*Pyrenees Lavender with Cardamom. 

*Egyptian Basil & Mint

 

Soaps: Bar Soap, $6.99

I used the Pyrenees Lavender with Cardamom throughout the day, and noticed that my hands were not as dry as they were when I used other soaps. My hands were also more conditioned and felt smoother. Pangea Organics makes sure that every bar in filled with the best ingredients nature has to offer, and their unique cold-processing method maintains the natural healing components in each unique blend of ingredients. This allows the benefits of each ingredient to do its job, instead of being boiled off during the usual heating method of processing soap.
