BIOSSANCE: Skincare Review

BIOSSANCE: Skincare Review

I discovered Biossance last September when searching for mineral sunblocks that appeared sheer on dark skin. After visiting the company website, I quickly learned that their products were EWG Verified, categorized as Clean at Sephora, and highly praised by users. Since I also happened to be in need of a new face wash, toner, and night cream at the time, I quickly fell down a rabbit hole of customer reviews. After a few days of heavy research and a Labor Day sale that couldn’t be beat, I pulled the trigger and ordered more than a few skincare products from Biossance’s award-winning line. Keep reading for my honest review.

SHEA MOISTURE CANNABIS SATIVA: Skincare Review

SHEA MOISTURE CANNABIS SATIVA: Skincare Review

When my Ursa Major products were in their final stretch last summer, I was in a bind to quickly secure a new face wash, toner, and moisturizer before heading on the road to hunker down in Montana for a bit. As I’m sure you know, online orders were taking weeks to arrive so I needed to find a clean skincare option that was available via Target Pickup (my go to quarantine solution for all things non-grocery). After researching the available inventory of my local Targets, I settled on three items from Shea Moisture. I had purchased Shea Moisture’s Coconut Oil Body Lotion a year prior and liked it, so I figured their newer line of Cannabis Sativa products featuring hemp seed oil, witch hazel, and Vitamin E would work just fine.

Ever since I was a young girl, my mother always promoted the use of natural products whenever possible. She wasn’t a fan of dyes or artificial ingredients and always reminded us to try and be mindful of what we ate and what we put on our skin. And since I was an asthmatic who also suffered from allergies and eczema, my mom was extra cautious about the bath soaps and lotions she purchased for our family. Mostly everything was unscented and limited in its ingredients…for the times.
