Im thinking about picking up some moisturizer and see that they have the carrot day/night cream and also the marshmellow day and primrose night cream. But Im not sure which one to pick - do you know the reasoning for picking one over the other?
I have combination skin (gets oily around menses) that is prone to breakouts and is has an uneven redness to it.
Thanks!
Julie

One word of caution: the carrot lotion is orange (or at least the stuff I got was) and since I am pale it actually made my skin a funny color. Just an FYI.

Yeah i use the carrot night cream from Burt's bees i like it but it is greasy. Have you ever tried any produts from Orgins. I have combo skin as well and it is the only thing that works. They use plant based products. i give them the thumbs up.
Not to slam BB but my marshmellow creme went bad :eek: ICK! moldy is not my idea of skin care! LOL!
I have similar skin and like a moisturizer from earth science I bought from whole foods.

I'd go with the carrot day cream. I have oily skin & can use that with out a problem. In the summer I really don't need it, but in the winter, it's just right. I've tried the others & they definately are too heavy.
I also use the Wild Lettuce soap & the Garden tomato toner. I've tried a lot & also have sensitive skin, but these are great. I just recently got one of their Herbal Blemish Stick's & am shocked at how well it's working. AF usually brings a little acne but this thing's great.
Edited to add: The marshmallow cream is very heavy, it's way too much for oily or combo skin but is helpful when my nose is red from blowing it too much. I use it for dry skin emergencies.

Hey Julie, I got the sample set. I can't remember which one but it had most of the products mentioned in it. I was really, really glad I did because I hated them all. Anyhow, I would get that and then you can try all of the stuff and see how you like it.
