3 Ways to Be Green: Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
Mar 17, 2008 Author: Jen Hill | Filed under: Acne, Cosmetics, Handmade Soaps, Primers
1. Like Mo, you can express yourself in St. Patty’s Day fashion with some bold green color on your eyelids!
2. You can go green by buying organic skincare.
You can try one of Herbaria’s newest soaps: Triple Mint Oatmeal
“Just in time for refreshment in warmer weather, we invite you to enjoy the natural menthol tingle and scent packed into this new bar.”
3. Go green by buying organic cosmetics.
Alison Raffaele has redesigned her cosmetic line for 2008. Alison’s new primer is my newest favorite rave about product, and is created in both an acne and age response formula. A little bit goes a long way. This primer not only makes my skin feel like velvet; it helps my foundation glide on beautifully, and it provides an spf 15.
Alison Raffaele Primer: Acne Response Formula with spf 15

Ooh! Nice green, Mo.
I went green by sucking on green throat lozenges and snarfing mentholatum up my nose - I hate colds! I have green eyes…does that count?
I am sorry to hear that Gramm! Allergies or a cold is starting up today for me as well.
Gesundheit!
Can’t say enough good things about the Alison Raffaele primer! I use it every day!
I am so happy that you love it as much as I do! Many primers feel about the same to me, and this one stands out as something really special.

Hi Jen, I’m searching for a natural/organic SPF face day lotion. Is the Alison Raffaele primer moisturizing enough for a daytime use? I don’t have dry skin; I’m oily T zone, acne prone on cheeks, and can have sun spots pop up if I’m not extra-over-zealous with my SPF in summer.
Also, I’m trying a new natural/organic skin care regimen by Sophyto and they recommended a more natural SPF lotion to go with. So here I am.
Recommend something for me MBB!
Jami
