I have always been a girly girl. I love make up. I love potions. Have I ever mentioned one of my favorite jobs was working at Bath and Body Works? Or that my granddaddy who turned 90 last month sold Estee Lauder since I was a little girl? I guess you could say, all this love of girly stuff comes natural for me.
I also love to try new things. So, when my dear friend Edie, shared a new product line with me, I was excited to run home and try all of her fun new items. The line is called NYR Organics (that is short for “Neal’s Yard Remedies”) and is based out of London. Apparently, this company is one of the top selling organic skincare companies in London, Japan, and Dubai. Only this year, has it arrived here in the States. NYR began in 1981 driven by the passionate belief that health and beauty should be more natural and less synthetic. Their mission as stated on their company website is…
To improve the quality of people’s lives by sharing our expertise and encouraging a more natural, holistic way of health, beauty, and well-being.
My friend Edie is pretty excited about this company and as her friend, I wanted to do what I could to support her. Plus, you know, I love partnering with moms who run small businesses to bless their families. Here are a few of my favorite things:
Left: White Tea Toning Eye Gel – tones and brightens the area around your eyes (It feels amazing!)
Center : Chamomile Cleanser – a cream cleanser for normal skin that soothes and hydrates. (I have a weird aversion to foaming washes that get up my nose when I wash my face? Am I the only one?)
Right: Wild Rose Serum – a pricier item to be sure, but when your 40 you need a nightly treatment to help make you look 20. (So worth it.)
I also love the pretty packaging and I think this would make a lovely Christmas Gift! Some of their skin care lines are made with Frankincense – which definitely says Christmas.

Oh, I do love me some girly-girliness, too! My bathroom cabinet is proof 🙂 Thanks for introducing us, I’ve never heard of this line. I’d probably try one of the brightening serums or anything that will help even out complexion. Pregnancy has a way of changing one’s skin! 😉
