Dear Ruche,

Vanilla Creme Beaded Bracelet $9.99
Rosie Posie Garden Dress $29.99
Oh and you carry organic (affordable!) clothing? It almost seems to good to be true.
Gray Trim Organic V-Neck Tank $32.99
And what is this? Cute, embellished shoes? Oh my goodness.
Pink Studio Winnie Peep Toe Flats $68

What is this you say? You're solely an online based boutique? I think I'm in love.

Nourish your skin

This past Christmas I received a lovely gift set by Pangea Organics from B's sister (if you haven't noticed B has, quite possibly, the sweetest family ever). I'm a huge fan of organic body care, but finding a brand I really like has been somewhat of a task. I love a foamy body wash and although I'm not intimidated by scents like sandlewood and jasmine, I prefer them in moderation. The gift set I received includes Shower gel, bar soap, sample lotion and a soap dish. The scents are spot on and the shower gel foams like a dream, but the coolest thing about this brand is the packaging. The boxes are made using a "Zero Waste process with 100% post consumer paper" and you can actually plant the packaging b/c it contains seeds!

"Harmony" holiday gift set $35

I have the Egyptian Basil and Mint body wash and B uses the Canadian Pine w/White Sage bar soap. Body wash costs $16 a bottle (8.5 oz) and it goes a long way.

I'm currently in the market for a good facial mask and if this is like the other products I've tried, it will be worth every penny.
Japanese Matcha Tea with Acai and Goji Berry $40

My mom taught me that if there's one thing to spend money on, it's your skin. I have a lot to live up to b/c my grandmother never had wrinkles, although I attribute that to her living on an island and eating only what came from my grandpa's garden. Regardless, I don't generally skimp on skincare b/c good skin is something you'll carry w/you til' the end. Any other organic body care favorites out there?
