The Obsession

Can you spend an hour or more in beauty supply stores?  Do you have multiple subscriptions to or can't help but pick up the latest hair magazine?  Is your 'under the sink' storage area so full that you have a special product area for your impulse purchases?  It's offiicial - you're obsessed.

The Attitude

All Tressed Up is more than the name of a website, it's an attitude.  Ask anyone - when you look good you do for the most part, feel good.  This website gives the everyday woman and/or man the opportunity to share just how wonderful you are!  Are you All Tressed Up today?

The Green Beauty Guide: Your Essential Resource to Organic and Natural Skin Care, Hair Care, Makeup, and Fragrances

E-mail Print PDF

Oh. My. Goodness!  It took me awhile to get through this book, but I am certainly glad that I did.  This book is full of information that you may not necessarily want to know, but you definitely should.  They say the truth hurts, however it also sets you free.

I know my family and friends get tired of me talking about natural this and organic that.  By way of this post, I am letting each of you know that thanks to this book my natural and organic chatter will definitely increase!  Yes, I love you too.

Moving right along...the book.  The Green Beauty Guide: Your Essential Resource to Organic and Natural Skin Care, Hair Care, Makeup, and Fragrances is filled with information as well as facts from research reports and case studies.  Julie Gabriel does an excellent job of communicating the facts without going into too much detail.  The reason why it took me so long to read this book was because of all of the information it holds.  There is section in the book that focuses on baby care products that blew my mind!  She references the ingredients in all of our products!  I'm talking sunscreen, makeup, lotions, scrubs and more!

She also provides a wide variety of natural recipes that you can try at home.  Don't worry, we will definitely be trying a few of them out!  At the very end of the book, she includes instructions to undergo a three-day beauty detox program.  Maybe I can get a few All Tressed Up family members to join in and undergo the beauty detox with me!

Featured Product

Sampling Poetisa's Palette

I must tell you that it always excites me to find goodies in my mailbox.  This product line is called Poetisa's Palette and prides itself on natural products for the hair and skin.

Before we go into the actual products, I would like to share my impression of the product delivery and more:

Packaging

I really like the small jars.  When it comes to natural products, it is a must that I be able to get every last drop out of the package.  Jars are good.  Natural products are usually not cheap!  Nothing should go to waste.  Great choice!

There was also a personal touch that I really enjoyed.  There was a post-card with instructions on how to use each product as well as warnings.  For example, you are advised not to use a specific product on the face.  I really enjoyed this personal touch.

The Kitchen

Calendula

I was first introduced to this herb through the best darn fashion manicurist in the world - Ms. Angel Williams!  I inquired about natural remedies for my skin because I deal with this annoying breakout each and every summer. Ugh!  It is totally a killer for sandal season!

She told me about calendula and shared that it was in fact a healing herb.  Calendula is also great for wound healing and yields a soothing feeling for irritated skin.  The tea of calendula can be drank and is rumored to aid with bladder infections, menstrual cramps and even pink eye!
