Mischo Beauty Pick: Desert Essence Organics

After learning more about the benefits of jojoba oil in cosmetology school and trying to take steps toward using more natural products, I started using Desert Essence's Jojoba Oil. So when they offered to send me their Green Apple & Ginger Body Wash (smells good enough to eat!), Almond Hand and Body Lotion and Lip Rescue in an effort to help me winterize my skin I was eager to try what they'd offered.

I'm loving all three products, and using the body wash as my current morning "pick-me-up". You should know that all of their products are 100% vegan and contain no parabens, sodium lauryl/laureth sulfates, phthalates, artificial colors, silicones, EDTA, glycol or petroleum-based ingredients. You may view the entire range here.

Mischo Beauty Pick: MAC Tendertones, Electro Flash, Sonic Chic & New View

I stopped by MAC last night to check out the Tendertones lip balm collection- I had to see what the excitement was about before I missed it. I bought "Hush, Hush" - which on me is a nude lip with sparkle/shine. The color is very sheer and the texture is thicker than I'd expected, but it feels very moisturizing. I do like the fact that it has an SPF of 12. I promise to post photos this weekend!

While I was there, I also found out that the Electro Flash, Sonic Chic and New View collections will be available tomorrow, but you can check them out online now!

Any thoughts on the Tendertones collection?
