#DrVRecommends: April Earth Month Edition

  1. Kashi Hummus CrispsOrganic Kashi Crisps – When I was pregnant two things happened: I became even more aware of what foods I put into my body, and I  discovered new found snack cravings.  These Kashi Crisps helped satisfy my “savory tooth” while also being totally guilt free!
  2. Seventh Generation DetergentSeventh Generation Natural Powder Laundry Detergent – The way I clean the clothes and bedding that directly touches my skin is just as important to me as what I put on my skin, which is why I stick to natural and organic deodorant.  Bonus points for this Seventh Generation pick?  It smells delicious too!   My favorite is the Real Citrus and Wild Lavender.
  3. Dr Bronners Lavender SoapDr. Bronner’s Magic Castile Lavender Liquid Soap  – Nothing soothes the body, mind and soul like a nice hot bath, well nothing except a lavender bath that is packed with peace of mind but free from anything bad for you, is non-GMO and it’s never tested on animals.
  4. Honest Co. Hand SanitizerHonest Company Hand Sanitizer – As a physician I’m sanitizing my hands multiple times a day which just one reason why having antimicrobial power at my fingertips is a must.  What I love about these from the Honest Company is that they are also plant-based, designed well and moisturize your skin and nails on contact!
  5. tarte-mascaraTarte Gifted Amazonian Clay Smart Mascara – To know me is to know I love my makeup, but I also love my skin and body; which is why I often turn to Tarte and their eco-friendly makeup line. It may be free of chemicals but is never free of stylish packaging and quality products, like this must-have mascara for fabulous, healthy and hydrated lashes.
  6. John Masters Shine OnJohn Masters Organic Shine On – Leave In Conditioner – The scents and product offerings alone in this line are enough to make me scoop them up and their leave-in treatments keep my hair shiny and healthy looking all day long.
  7. Nah-LaNahla Beauty Pacific Seaweed Purify Mask – This mask is a must for those looking for a green and organic skin treatment that will reduce the size of pores and is also sensitive skin approved! Treat yourself!
  8. Swanson Calendula ToothpasteCalendula Toothpaste – Your search for a natural toothpaste is finally over!  This great pick from Calendula is free from fluoride and any synthetic cleaning products and instead relies on plants and minerals to keep your pearly whites healthy and bright.
  9. Acquarella PolishAcquarella Non-toxic Nail Polish – Could you be hurting your nail health due to the chemical polishes and nail treatments you’re putting on them?  You bet!  That’s why if you’re a regular “mani girl” you may want to add this non-toxic nail polish to your beauty bag.  At under twenty bucks and with multiple shades to choose from, they’re a must!
  10. EOS Lip BalmEOS Organic Lip Balm Stick – Though not new it’s still a must in my book:  it’s good for your lips, smooth and sleek, and 100% natural.  I’m also a big fan of their natural flavors.  If you’re going to use a lip balm you definitely want to be sure it’s natural, so stick with this, I recommend it highly!
