I am so excited about this
new natural skincare line from Paula's Coice: Earth Sourced!
For those of you that don't know Paula "The Cosmetics Cop" or the Paula's Choice brand, let me introduce you! Paula Begoun is one of the main inspirations for why I started getting into reading product reviews and writing them myself! I stumbled across her amazing book "Don't Go to the Cosmetics Counter Without Me" over 10 years ago. The book is a reference volume of 100s of cosmetics and skincare product reviews by brand. I instantly became hooked on reading product reviews before buying. The reviews are written based on the product formulations. So, the products are evaluated based on the integrity of the ingredients (rather than personal reviews).
I feel like I owe a lot to Paula as she was such an inspiration to me! I have always loved testing out and trying products. My search of product reviews led me to Makeup Alley where I read and contributed to the product reviews in the MUA database. I also discovered many great product review blogs, such as 15 Minute Beauty Fanatic, where I would read product reviews on a daily basis. After years of reading reviews, I finally decided to start my own blog to publish all my product reviews in one place! I am so happy that I have found an audience and I just love my readers!!!
Not only does Paula Begoun have a fabulous beauty product reference book, but also she has an amazing skincare and makeup line: Paula's Choice. Her products used to be staple items for me years ago. I found her skincare to be very effective while not irritating my sensitive skin! I still like her products. However, I had not used them in awhile. I do so much product testing (especially with writing this blog), that I switch up my skincare frequently. So, I was absolutely thrilled when Paula's Choice contacted me about her new Earth Sourced Skincare line!
The Earth Sourced Line:
The Earth Sourced Line is a natural skincare line with 98% plant-based ingredients. The line is suitable for normal, combination, or dry skin types. Earth Sourced products contain no synthetic compounds. Paula strives to pick the best ingredients based on skincare research. According to the website, Earth Sourced products can help to repair wrinkles, reduce environmental skin damage, and diminish signs of aging. Have you used natural products in the past that irritated your skin? I sure have. Well, Paula's Choice knows to keep natural ingredients out that are known skin irritants like cinnamon, peppermint, and citruses. The natural ingredients in Earth Sourced products are both gentle and effective! These products contain no dyes nor fragrances. The line is really a great option for sensitive skin!
For this review, I tried out the Earth Sourced Cleansing Gel, Refreshing Toner, and Antioxidant Enriched Natural Moisturizer. To find out how I liked these products, please keep reading!
