Made From Earth Olive Night Creme - Confessions of a Psychotic ...

I want my skin to look good, but I also don't want to be slathering chemicals all over my face. I've become a label reader, and there are certain ingredients I try my best to avoid, such as propylene glycol - and boy is that one hard. It seems to be in so many things!

Made From Earth is fast becoming one of my new favorite skincare companies. They make USDA Organic skincare products. Everything is free of harmful chemicals like petrochemicals and phthalates, parabens (Methyl, Propyl, Butyl), Sodium Lauryl/Laureth Sulfate, Diazolidinyl Urea, Mineral Oil, and Cosmetic Fragrance. Instead they use natural and organic ingredients to create a healthier for you - and the planet - product.

I was lucky enough to get to try the Made From Earth Olive Night Creme. This moisturizing night cream is made with organic olives and olive butter for mature and dry skin. My face is still incredibly dry, especially on my forehead. If I don't use moisturizes several times daily, the skin starts to flake off and I look horrid. It's not that I am overly vain, but I don't want to look awful, especially for my husband. Olive oil is a rich source of antioxidants, so when it's applied to the skin it has been scientifically proven to that protect skin against aging. If you're in your early 20's, you don't worry so much about those wrinkles - but trust me, once you crack the 30's, you start paying a lot more attention!

To use the night cream, you simply apply a small amount on your finger from the jar and gently smooth onto your face and neck using upward motions after cleansing your face before bed. I was a little afraid I might smell like I poured olive oil onto my face, but when I opened the jar I was happy that the scent didn't smell like that. It was a pleasant, soothing scent, a little strong if you prefer unscented, but nice to apply. It also absorbed easily into my skin, and didn't feel overly greasy like some night creams do. It didn't upset my sensitive skin, and I never felt itchy using it. It did help moisturize my facial skin so it wasn't quite as flaky. All in all, I was pretty pleased with it.

A two ounce jar of Made From Earth Olive Night Creme retails for $39.99. It's currently on sale for 15% off at $34.00, and there is free US shipping right now on all orders over $75!
