Rooted Beauty Part II

Hi everyone! Today's post is kind of a continuation of my last Rooted Beauty review. I've been really loving their lip balms, but their other products are to die for! I couldn't wait to tell you about them! I apologize about the abundance of facial product reviews this week, but I use them almost more than I use lip balm, so it was just kind of natural for me to start writing about them!

Company: Rooted Beauty

Products: Facial Wipes, Facial Moisturizer, and  Facial Cleanser. I love the scent of these Facial Wipes! They're scented in Raspberry Citrus and it is just such an invigorating scent. It's so bright and fruity and just has the most wonderful scent. The Facial Moisturizer and Facial Cleanser are both scented in Mango Passion and they smell just as lovely as the facial wipes! They have a tropical, fruity yet light scent.Seriously these products just have the most fantastic scents!

Wear: The Facial Wipes are probably the most moist facial wipes I've ever used, they're really wet and sometimes have little bubbles on them that reminds me of soap. But they're also the BEST facial wipes I've ever used (and I've used a TON in addition to different makeup removers). Of course they make my face feel fresh and clean, but they also remove all of my makeup! Even stubborn mascara and liquid eye liner. This stuff is amazing. It's the only makeup remover/facial wipe I'll use now when I wear makeup. The Facial Cleanser feels great and does a good job at cleaning my face (is that weird to say?). I use it almost every day, so it's pretty gentle to use that often. I often go for runs, attend hot yoga classes, and spend lots of time in the gym so I find myself having to wash my face more often because of all the sweat. Even the days I use this cleanser twice, my skin holds up and feels great. Not too dry or damaging. If I'm using this cleanser earlier in the day I tend to follow it up with the Facial Moisturizer because it's pretty lightweight, I save my heavy (or heavier) duty stuff for nighttime. When the moisturizer is absorbing it kind of makes my face feel stiff and dry, but then my face feels nice and soft the rest of the day. The moisturizer is made with Thanaka which is something I actually grew up with because my grandma uses it constantly on her face. Thanaka is kind of a Burmese beauty secret, it's made into a paste and left to dry on your face (which is why I think the moisturizer feels like it's dry and stiff for a little while). Lots of the older women in my family use it and have been using it since they were young! (I don't know if I've mentioned this before, but I'm Burmese and no one ever knows what that is so it was really neat for me to see something from my culture used in a mainstream product!).

Packaging: The Facial Wipes come in the usual industry standard type packaging, a peel and seal package. The Facial Cleanser also comes in a pretty usual squeeze tube. The Facial Moisturizer comes in a small pump bottle with a cap. Each one has brightly designed packaging with colors that are super eye catching. The packaging is really just lovely.

Price: You can get all three of these in a set for $26.99 or buy them each separately. Separately the Facial Wipes are $6.99, Facial Cleanser is $9.99, and Facial Moisturizer is $14.99. Each price seems pretty reasonable, especially since these will last a while! (Maybe not the Facial Wipes if you wear make up frequently, there are only 25 in each package.)

Overall
Pros: Each Product, Packaging, Price, Wear
Cons:

Rating: 5 out of 5 twists. I love these Rooted Beauty products, I think I even like the facial products more than the lip balms! If any of these interest you at all, I'd definitely recommend you try them! Plus, a portion of each product sold goes to support a woman to escape oppression. Good products and a good cause, what more could you want?

Rooted Beauty

I have been wanting to try products from this company for just about forever and over Black Friday they had a great sale that I just couldn't pass up! This company does so many good things too (aside from making really awesome products). A portion of each item sold helps empower a woman with a specific goal or project through the Woman2Woman project. The Woman2Woman project aims to help a woman escape from extreme poverty and/or trafficking. Each item benefits a different woman and Rooted Beauty has six women (they sell six items) at a time they're sponsoring.

Company: Rooted Beauty

Flavors: Razz Lime, Orange Vanilla, and Passion Fruit. The Razz Lime smells lightly of tart raspberry and tangy, sour lime. The Orange Vanilla smells of bright orange and creamy vanilla. The orange is definitely stronger than the vanilla. The Passion Fruit is very lightly scented, but does smell of tropical passion fruit. The Razz Lime and Passion Fruit balms would be great for someone who doesn't like super strong scents in their balms.

Wear: These balms feel firmer than most balms I use, but they melt right on contact with my lips. Once these balms touch my lips they melt and have a super dreamy texture. These sink in and kind of sit on my lips at the same time. But they leave a great amount of product on my lips, it doesn't feel too thin or too thick, just the right amount of product.

Packaging: One of the things that really drew me to these balms was their packaging! They come in push up/squeeze tubes which are really cool. To get more product out you just squeeze the bottom until you get the amount you want out of the tube. The tubes are also compostable!

Price: ~$5 per tube which is a little steep for me, but this company does some pretty good things and I got a deal on them during Black Friday.

Overall
Pros: Flavors, Wear, Packaging, Price
Cons:

Rating: 4 out of 5 twists. These balms were pretty great! I really love the consistency of them, but some of the scents were a little too light for my liking. Not enough for me to not recommend these to you, but I just wanted to point that out. If these interest you at all, definitely check them out! Stay tuned for a future review on their other face products, you won't want to miss it!
