Clairvoyant Beauty Skincare Products Review

clair·voy·ant: "able to see beyond the range of ordinary perception."

That is the way that the ladies behind Clairvoyant Beauty see their cosmetic line: creating beauty products that go beyond the ordinary. They not only make you look good, but are good for you (using 100% natural and organic ingredients) and good for the world, using practices, ingredients and packaging that are socially responsible, environmentally friendly, cruelty free, vegan certified and certified organic. All rolled up into one little package.

Recently, I received one such package to try out for myself. As I've mentioned before, I've made it an effort to be aware of what I'm putting not only into my body but onto my skin, one of the reasons fueling why I started making my own shampoo and would like to someday try my hand at making my own make-up. So the chance to add some of their beauty products—free of chemicals, artificial fragrances, parabens, sulfates or anything synthetic—to my growing arsenal was right up my alley.

Their list of products covers all your skincare needs, including all-natural cleansers, creams, scrubs, serums and toners. I was provided with a set of cucumber-themed products to try out: Light & Refreshing Cucumber Cream and Depuffing Cucumber & Cranberry Eye Gel.

Light & Refreshing Cucumber Cream
I've been using them for about a month, which has been perfect timing as the weather has turned a bit chilly, even down here in Atlanta. Although I love the excuse for wrapping up in fuzzy scarves and warming my hands with a mug of cocoa, the weather does a number on my sensitive skin, causing it to tighten and dry out. So moisturizing becomes a top priority. I normally use Aveeno moisturizer, which works well but is sticky. The moisturizing cream from Clairvoyant soaks right into my skin without leaving a tacky film and rehydrates my skin for the rest of the day.

Depuffing Cucumber & Cranberry Eye Gel
I've used a depuffing cream for a couple of years now to help make me look more awake in the mornings. But one of the things I loved about the Clairvoyant product was that (first and foremost) it worked but also the cucumber oils infused in it were cooling and refreshing to my sleep-worn skin and to my groggy state of mind.

Even down the packaging—a recyclable container with teensy tiny inspirational quotes about beauty printed backwards on the labels—the products have not only caught but also kept my attention and become key products in my skincare routine.

Thanks to Clairvoyant Beauty for providing these products for review. Check out their website at www.clairvoyantbeauty.com.
