A Natural Moisturizer: Jurlique

On with my moisturizer quest, the next brand to explore is Jurlique. In their own words:

Since 1985, Jurlique has pioneered natural, high performance skin care products. Jurlique was founded in South Australia, one of the purest places on Earth, in an ideally suited and unpolluted environment where harmony with nature is at the heart of the free-spirited Australian lifestyle. Our mission is to provide the purest, most effective skin care through nature, science and innovation. 

From farm to bottle, Jurlique grows, processes, and formulates pure, potent extracts to deliver the most innovative products with dynamic results. Jurlique's farm grown roots and pure formulas are about as real as the vegetables grown in an organic garden.

Formulated without: Parabens - Sulfates - Synthetic Fragrances - Synthetic Dyes - Petrochemicals - Phthalates - GMOs - Triclosan!

Purely White Skin Brightening Day Cream

A lightweight moisturizer to help minimize dark spots and and improve skin radiance.

This day cream contains Jurlique's VitaBrightKx complex. Made with ascorbyl glucoside, a natural form of vitamin C, it is intended to help promote collagen synthesis and help inhibit melanin production for a skin brightening effect. The complex's mix of superfruit antioxidant ingredients works to even skintone, reduce the appearance of discolorations, and brighten the complexion. Bisabolol soothes and hydrates skin throughout the day. $45

Purely Age-Defying Ultra Firm and Lift Cream

A powerful firming treatment and hydrating moisturizer in one product.

This rich, fast-absorbing cream harnesses the power of plant botanicals to firm, lift, strengthen and hydrate skin. It contains a potent amino acid lipid to lift and re-define facial contours. A marine plant extract helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. A natural repair agent helps to activate collagen synthesis and restructure skin. $70

Clarifying Day Care Lotion

A lightweight, balancing moisturizer.

Jurlique's Clarifying Day Care Lotion provides light-textured hydration for the skin. This easily absorbed lotion helps to minimize the visible signs of aging and prevents excess oiliness, leaving the skin feeling soft and balanced. $36

The more I read about it, the more I want a natural product for my face. So I think I will continue this quest with mostly, if not all, natural products, leaving out most of the brands we all know, but that use so many weird and toxic ingredients.

Hi Spender!

Thank you for all the hard work you've done researching skin care products. Thanks to God due to years, well, decades of keeping out of the sun my skin isn't giving me any trouble, except the usual laugh lines. Amen to the fact there are no other troubles. I will keep the information though, just in case.

Ow!!! I accidentally put on a Chap Stick with spf 27 or something like that, instead of the regular kind. I'm allergic to sunscreen so my lips are all swollen. I look like I went wild with collagen injections. I need help. Ow. Ow. Ow.
