Adovia Cleopatra's Choice 100% Natural Shea Butter #Review


Adovia is in my opinion an up and coming leader in skin care & beauty. I was recently able to try their 100% pure Shea butter and absolutely love it! I received a 1 lb. tub and will have plenty for a while because it lasts a long time. I was able to experiment some and made some incredible homemade soap and shave lotion. I can easily say it was the best homemade shave lotion ever and also the first time I was able to use real Shea butter!
 
The Shea was easy to use and so much fun to experiment with. This product is also a Fair Trade product that is produced by the women of Ghana sustainable living group. I love being able to help in some way to make someone's life better and I feel this is a good use of my money in that sense. I have definitely found my # 1 Shea butter and will absolutely be purchasing this in the future. This incredible product is offered at a great price as well, so it's a win-win all the way around! If you love natural beauty products as much as I do, then this is a must have for your home too! Check them out on Amazon at the link below:




I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Dr. Bronner's Magic Soaps #Review




*I received products from Dr. Bronner's Magic soaps, but all thoughts and feelings on the product, are 100% mine. I received no compensation, other than the fantastic products for review.*


Recently, I was graciously given a chance to review Dr. Bronner's Magic soaps. This is the company that I hold dear to my heart. They have done amazing things for society in general and care compassionately for their consumers. Dr. Bronner's Magic soaps are not only organic, they can be produced sustainably under Fair Trade and Organic Certification. Dr. Bronner's soapmaking dates all the way back to 1858, when Emmanuel Heilbronner started to manufacture soap out of  the basement of his home. The family also manufactured candles for the Jewish Sabbath. In the 1880s to 1890s, the Heilbronner's, were the first to innovate liquid Castile soap and supply all of Germany's public washrooms.


                                      (The Heilbronner Home where all of the magic started)


Fast-forward to 1920, Dr. Bronner, is apprenticed in another Jewish soapmaking company. He attends the trade school, receiving a Soapmaking Master certificate, but doesn't stop there, he also receives a degree in chemistry.

Dr. Emanuel Bronner, has such an amazing story and I am so glad to share with all of you. Besides his soaps being so amazing, the morals, ethics, and just pure love behind their products, make them one of my favorite companies ever. They also hold the same values as I do as a person. If any company or corporation should be considered a person, it should be Dr. Bronner's Magic soaps. Dr. Bronner's has fought for GMO labeling on all products, they are Fair Trade and Organic Certified, and they proudly believe in this mission.



Dr. Bronner was a good man who believed in unity and togetherness for all mankind. He also wrote a book called the Moral ABCs and also had wonderful philosophies. After Dr. Emmanuel Bronner's death in 1997, his family kept the business going. There are too many good things to say about this company and not enough time. Their products are excellent organic nature, with wonderful scents and quality you can trust. They are Coconut Oil based products, leaving your skin feeling soft and refreshed. I love going back to nature with these products, I am a huge believer in staying as natural as possible and seeking those products out. The Bronner family and their products, I hold dear to my heart, and I will continue to express that with my patronage to their company and their products. I hope you will learn more about this wonderful company and their products. There is also a wonderful documentary about Dr. Bronner, called "Dr. Bronner's Magic Soapbox." It is a must-see and I hope you'll watch and learn more about The Bronner family and their fascinating, yet bittersweet journey. Thank you for caring, Dr. Bronner's!
