The December 2016 box featured products from Mettā Skincare. Named after “an ancient style of meditation that encourages loving-kindness with yourself and the world around you,” Mettā hopes to reestablish the connections between people’s skincare routines and nature by fostering a loving-kindness treatment of one’s own skin.
This month’s shipment included Mettā’s face balm, lip balm, body butter and hand balm.
Founded by Anca Grigoras, Mettā strives to create skin care lines free from harmful chemicals that support sustainable agriculture, fair trade and developing communities. All ingredients are cultivated using sustainable organic or biodynamic farming techniques. Mettā uses cold-pressed vegetable oils and steam-distilled, therapeutic-grade essential oils.
Mettā Skincare’s Coconut Lip Balm (approximately $10.52) is a vegan blend of oils and butters designed to moisturize lips and cuticles. I loved seeing the small slivers of coconut in the balm! This balm left my lips feeling hydrated and pampered.
Mettā Skincare’s Face Balm (approximately $35.65) feels a bit like a thick fruit puree in hand, but glides on smoothly when applied to the face. Made from East African Shea Butter, cold-pressed oils and other botanical ingredients, this balm is designed to soften and smooth skin while restoring radiance to aging skin. It’s ideal for dry, mature or environmentally stressed skin, in other words, for my skin. Mettā recommends applying it at bedtime. Every time I’ve used it, my face has felt smooth and hydrated in the morning.
Mettā Skincare’s Comforting Hand Balm (approximately $17.47) combines fair trade organic shea butter, olive oil and calendula extract to produce a moisturizing, penetrating balm that left my hands feeling restored even after washing dishes.
Mettā Skincare’s Lavender Body Butter (approximately $11.65) has the consistency of butter and smells a bit like its namesake too. Made from organic shea nilotica butter, cold-pressed organic grapeseed oil, organic raw cacao butter and organic therapeutic-grade lavender essential oil, this light, indulgent spread soothes, nourishes and hydrates the skin while also calming the senses, allowing one to focus more on self care.
Pearlesque Box scours the world each month in search of high-quality, non-toxic and organic skincare lines to send to your doorstep for a fraction of their retail cost. Before receiving Pearlesque Box, I never knew that my skin could not only tolerate but could actually respond really well to skin care products! This is only my fifth month receiving this box, but it has already become one that I can’t wait to receive each month! The value of this box was fantastic – $75 worth of products for $39.95. I’m hooked.
