Press Sample (Unaffiliated Links)

I am very pleased to introduce you to Valentina's Naturals, a new-to-me organic skincare line, that is made with all natural and organic plant-based ingredients that are non-toxic, beautifully aromatic and a true pleasure to use. The new year always represents new beginnings, and it is therefore the perfect time to add a few healthy skincare products into your beauty routine.

About Valentina’s Naturals:

When formulating our products and sourcing raw materials, we look for 100% Natural, Certified Organic, Ecocert, GMO-Free, Vegan, Cruelty-Free, Conflict-Free, Sustainably-Harvested ingredients whenever possible. We reject ingredients which are pre-preserved with synthetics such as Phenoxyethanol, or suspended in Propylene Glycol, or which contain synthetic chemicals.

Unlike the majority of beauty companies today, we are committed to a 100% full disclosure labeling policy, believing that our customers have a right to make fully-informed decisions on what they choose to use on their skin.

Our first priority in sourcing any ingredient is our constant commitment to finding the highest quality and the purest source of that ingredient available in the world.
Valentina's Naturals Balancing Act Facial Oil ($24.00 for 2 oz. from Valentina's Naturals): If you have oily, combination or breakout-prone skin and have been seeking a beauty oil that can address the needs of your skin, then say hello to this superb balancing facial oil. Rather than using a drying acne treatment, this oil gives skin much-needed hydration while healing breakouts. It is lightweight, non-greasy and fast absorbing with a Tea Tree aroma. When my normal/combination breaks out, I can use this oil as a spot treatment, and it heals the breakout very quickly. Furthermore, it leaves my skin soft, supple and hydrated.

Skin Type: Oily or Combination skin

According to Valentina's Naturals,

We start with a base of Organic Grapeseed Oil, a mild, nongreasy oil that quickly soaks into skin without clogging or overwhelming the pores. We add Organic Australian Tea Tree Oil, an antimicrobial miracle treatment made famous by the Australian Army. We finish with Organic Camphor Bark Oil, long used for its ability to to treat skin irritation and chronic acne.    

Ingredients: Organic Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Organic Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba Seed) Oil, Organic Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Oil, Tocopherol (Non-GMO Sources Natural Vitamin E), Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Oil, Cinnamomum Camphora (Camphor) Bark Oil.
Valentina's Naturals Hydraboost Toning Mist ($22.00 for 4 oz. from Valentina's Naturals): This antioxidant-rich toner is formulated to speed up skin cell turnover, heal breakouts and reduce inflammation and redness. Skin is left soft, smooth, hydrated and balanced. Furthermore, it offers skin a refreshing pick-me-up.

Skin Type: Oily or Combination skin.

According to Valentina's Naturals,

Your grandmother was right: Organic Apple Cider Vinegar works wonders on your complexion — clarifying and rebalancing your skin’s pH to make it less susceptible to invasive bacteria. We blend ours with Organic Witch Hazel Extract, a natural astringent and anti-inflammatory used medicinally in hospitals today to calm angry, swollen, irritated skin.

Ingredients: Distilled Water, Hamamelis Virginiana (Witch Hazel) Leaf Water, Organic Pyrus Malus (Apple) Cider Vinegar, Organic Glycerin, Organic Aloe Vera, Organic Grape Alcohol, Lonicera Caprifolium (Honeysuckle) Extract**, Lonicera Japonica (Japanese Honeysuckle) Extract**, Glyceryl Caprylate**, Sodium Levulinate**, Sodium Anisate**. **Ecocert approved, naturally-derived preservative.
Valentina’s Naturals Hydrating Body & Massage Oil in Pure Serenity ($14.00 for 4 oz. from Valentina's Naturals): This is a delectable body and massage oil that is described as "Deeply moisturizing blend with Sweet Orange, Lavender and Cedarwood"– but the Sweet Orange is the most prominent note, but its edges are softened by the Cedarwood, and I don't detect the Lavender. It is lightweight enough to absorb quickly on damp skin, but doesn't absorb so quickly on dry skin so as to be ineffective as a massage oil.

According to Valentina's Naturals,

Deeply moisturizing and yet quickly absorbed, our body oil is a great post-bath or shower ritual for morning or night.

The sense of smell is inexorably linked with a habit and memory. From the smell of coffee in the morning to the lemon-limey fizz of gin and tonic, from fast food french fries to the oddly exhilarating sent of a shopping bag full of new clothes, our noses subconsciously lead us down many unwanted paths. This is your chance to even the playing field.

Ingredients: Organic Sunflower Oil, Proprietary Blend of 100% Natural Essential Oils.

Available Fragrances: True Love, Sunny Outlook, Soul Detox, Sweet Dreams, Sacred Incense, Pure Serenity and Prosperity.
Valentina’s Naturals True Love Perfume Oil ($14.00 for .33 oz. from Valentina's Naturals): True Love is an organic and natural perfume oil that is free from all harmful chemicals. Valentina's Naturals does not give a breakdown of its notes, but I detect a beautiful, rich rose. The convenient roller ball applicator makes this a perfect travel companion.

According to Valentina's Naturals,

Whether you are a single person looking to boost your love energy or a couple celebrating an anniversary or patching a rough spot in your relationship, this intoxicating natural scent blend can help set the mood.

Naturally free from harmful chemicals, petroleum-based artificial fragrances and drying alcohol, this little perfume roller lets you stay focused on your highest intentions all day long.

Ingredients: Organic Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower Oil) Seed Oil, Organic Simmondsia Chinesis (Jojoba) Seed Extract, Proprietary Blend of 100% Natural Essential Oils, Tocopherol (Natural Vitamin E).

Overall Assessment: I am very impressed by my first introduction to Valentina's Naturals, and look forward to further investigating their lovely products.
