Summer Splash! Garden Botanica Review & Giveaway

With the hustle and bustle of the summer season, its easy to forget the little things. Don't let taking care of your skin be one of the things you sacrifice. Our skin is important, and it needs even more special attention in the hot summer months when UV rays cause damage and skin can be easily dried out. One of the greatest companies to fulfill all your skincare needs this summer, is Garden Botanica. Whether you're looking for cleansers, toners, night creams, or cosmetics they have it all, and its all made from only natural and holistic ingredients.

For my review, I received the Bio Marine Defense Cream. This is the perfect way to keep your skin healthy despite the elements. Used in place of your daily moisturizer, this potent algae-derived cream helps skin retain moisture and resist environmental damage. Anti-inflammatory properties help reduce signs of irritation and rejuvenate skin by stimulating cell growth. The cream goes on smoothly and does not leave behind any sticky residues. It leaves your skin feeling firm and taunt, but still moisturized and soft. Its the perfect way to keep that healthy glow all year long. And at only $25, its an affordable skincare option.

In addition to their skin care, Garden Botanika also offers cosmetics, fragrances, household items and more.  If you are looking for a gift for a special occasion, their oil diffusers and body mists are only a few of the great choices. While you're visiting their website, be sure to join the Garden Club. Its a great way to save up to 15% off all your purchases. And for more great thoughts on the all natural products at Garden Botanika, be sure to head over to One2Try and see what fabulous product Rita got to try out.
