If you read my blog and have followed along with the reviews I do, then you’ll probably know that I am quite a big fan of natural, eco-chic and Green products. Well, Terralina is no exception. This luxurious skincare line was co-created by two cousins who sought to create a better, healthier line of products. Just like many of the best products out there, this line was born out of a mother’s love! When the Garrubbo ladies behind Terralina were pregnant (and at the same time, too!), that’s when the seeds of inspiration to create a line of healthy, natural skincare products was planted.
Terralina’s proprietary blend of natural ingredients is free of parabens, PEGs, ethoxylates, glycols, acrylates, mineral oils, silicones, or artificial fragrance.
I had a chance to try all of Terralina’s current products, which are all included in the Terralina Skincare Gift Set
The body lotion is as smooth as whipped butter, luxuriously thick and creamy to ensure the best possible coverage, but far from oily. Every day that I use it, my entire body is oh-so smooth and moisturized, with just a hint of fragrance. I keep the included travel size of lotion (unscented) in my bag (alongside my Bug & Pickle Baby Butter) for when my hands are feeling dry.
The facial cleanser and toner are both so incredibly gentle, it’s like splashing spring water on my face. Unlike other toners and cleansers that can sting, Terralina just gives your face that clean, fresh feeling. And that facial moisturizer.. mmm- just like the body lotion, it packs a moisturizing punch, but doesn’t leave your skin feeling greasy. It has a creamy consistency that goes on nicely, and it keeps the skin on my face silky smooth. Plus, my skin is a bit sensitive, and I usually end up using Cetaphil, which doesn’t irritate my skin, but doesn’t exactly deliver the skin-smoothing I’d like. Terralina facial moisturizer does not irritate my skin at all, and it is definitely one of the very best (quite possibly the best) face lotion I’ve ever tried!
Check out all that Terralina does to be an environmentally friendly company: Terralina Environmental Efforts. From the packaging it all comes in, to bottles made from 100% recycled materials, to providing a votive candle so you can reuse the facial moisturizer bottle as candle holder, all in addition to their commitment to using natural ingredients , Terralina is definitely doing their part to make sure that their products aren’t only good for your skin, but for the environment too.
Before you buy it, you can look over the ingredients list for each product– Terralina discloses all ingredient information.
They’ve won numerous awards including a Green Star from Elle Magazine. They’ve received thumbs up’s from tons of mags, websites and super-satisfied customers. If you’re looking to try new skincare products to use during your daily toilette, I highly recommend trying Terralina.
You can purchase Terralina’s fine skincare products directly from Terralina.com, or from their Amazon storefront.
