Maddy's picks: Soothing Touch Body Lotion


I'm in LOVE! I'm in LOVE! I'm in LOVE with this lotion, and I don't care who knows!!!
When I come across a new product that not only falls in line with my beliefs, cruelty free, natural, local... but is AMAZING and really is all it says it is, I am excited to share the news!
While strolling the isles of Sprouts recently, in search of a new lotion, trying on every sample, sure that I would end up with the usual Kiss My Face, or Burt's Bees, I saw this sexy little bottle.  She was lined up on the shelf next to her sisters, and was whispering my name.  I decided to give her a sniff.
Actually, I went ahead and sniffed all 4 flavors. 

I'm not into really "loud" floral scents.  You know, the cheapy candles and lotions pretending to smell like your favorite flower, but making you feel nauseous after a few minutes.  I wan to have a nice scent on my skin, one that lingers, but only faintly.  A scent that smells clean and natural and herbal.  This lotion pretty much rocked my world.  I decided upon the Tuscan Bouquet. 
This "flavor" contains Lavender, Chamomile, Bergamot, Sandalwood, Vanilla and Rose. 
Le Siiigh!  When I put it on my skin, I love the aroma it puts off. 
Ok, speaking of putting it on my skin....
I live in the SW.  The desert.  I NEED something with some staying power!  This lotion is made in Santa Fe, so, the creators know what our needs are here, that's for sure!  It contains Jojoba Oil, Vitamin E, Castor Oil, Coconut Oil, Mustard Oil, and Sesame Oil.  I put it on my hands and don't have to reapply 20 minutes later.  Actually, it's been about 45 minutes since I've used it, and my hands still feel so silky! (oh, and they still smell good!)
I decided to look them up, and found that they started in a garage in Los Angeles in 1977, using a few oils from India, share with them, by the late Yogi Bhajan.
They are certified organic, and create everything in their facility in Santa Fe, NM.  Being a New Mexico girl, this made me like them even more!
