My May 18th post on wanting to find a nice moisturizer that is animal-friendly drew an email from a reader who was searching for the same all the way from Portugal! How cool is that?!
Rita, from Portugal, wrote to ask if I had any luck in finding a moisturizer to do the trick as she was growing frustrated with the same issues I was having:
I laughed, reading Bobbi Brown’s answer… check out Aveda’s answer (also an Esteé Lauder company).”
I replied to Rita that I am currently using a product I found at none other than Harris Teeter of all places! Nature’s Gate Organics – have a vine day – Chardonnay Hydrator for daytime goes on day and night and although it does have a obvious scent, it doesn’t bother me… and isn’t noticeable a few seconds later… it’s actually kind of refreshing.
Here’s what hooked me: clear as day on the box the manufacturer notes that the product is “made in the US”, “cruelty free”, “made with certified organic botanicals” and “paraben-free”. For $15 or so (way cheaper than advertised on their own site), it’s done the trick so far!
