Rating: ★★★★ Loved it and bought it since • ★★★ Good stuff • ★★ Not for me • ★ Hated it

I’m quicker with the February review than the last few. I opened it and dove right into using all of the products. Three of the brands are completely new-to-me. There’s a deodorant, two facial care items, and a hair mask.

Let’s get into it!

Palmetto Derma — Rejuvenating Antioxidant Mask — ★★★★

Value, $64

Description: Welcome to an antioxidant treasure trove! This mask puts your skin on the fast track to soft, smooth and glowing! The soft clay of the mask gently purifies skin, by absorbing impurities and cleaning pores and skin. The advanced antioxidants defend against free radicals and reverse daily skin damage. This mask is whipped-up to velvety perfection for luxurious and easy application. The cooling effect refreshes and soothes the skin as the mask works its magic, leaving skin bright and smooth! Our Rejuvenating Antioxidant mask includes ingredients such as Hyaluronic Acid to hydrate skin, while the preventative ingredients work to enhance skin for lifelong radiance. Get ready to feel tingly all over when you see these stellar results!

On first open you’re introduced to a refreshing herbal scent. The mask is thick and cooling like what I imagine a cold cream to feel like. It was fun to apply grabbing dollops and rubbing it into my skin.

I’ve used it 2-3 times now and usually on days I’ve washed my hair right when I get out of the shower. With masks I usually set the timer for the minimum amount of time suggested—sensitive skin, in this case 15 minutes. There was an immediate cool chilled feeling and a slight tingling sensation. I was a little apprehensive, but kept applying it. It actually felt quite refreshing once I got used to it. It didn’t feel dry or tight as it dried and at 15 minutes I dampened a wash cloth in warm water and started buffing it off my skin in circular motions.

My skin immediately felt smooth and soft. The redness from buffing faded quickly and my skin looked good. I’ve only used this in the morning, but would like to try it before going to bed some time. It’s definitely a new favorite and one I’ll be repurchasing when it’s gone.

Lovefresh — Natural Deodorant — ★★★★

Value, $18

Description: This all-natural deodorant will keep you smelling fresh all day long, we promise! By using this wonderful deodorant you will feel comfortable that you are not putting any harsh chemicals under a very *vulnerable* part of your body. It really, really works.

I’m way skeptical of natural deodorants in stick form and tub or tube some can be very difficult to apply. I was really really impressed with Lovefresh! Their natural deodorant applied easily with firm pressure. Not in clumps. Just like good ole stick deodorant. You know that I love rose-scented products and let me just tell you this one smells delicious!! I could just walk around holding it under my nose.

Once I’m wearing it I don’t even know that it’s on. My armpits felt dry and I stayed odor-free the entire day!

Ingredients: Fair Trade Shea Butter, Coconut Oil*, Kaolin Clay, Sodium Bicarbonate (aluminum-free), Emulsifying Wax (coconut derived) and natural organic essential oils*. That’s it.

Lather — Cucumber Milk Facial Cleanser — ★★★★

Full-size, $19

Description: This non-foaming cream cleanser is great for dry, combination or mature skin. The unique formulation of cucumber and sea algae extracts gently lifts away impurities, tightens pores and discourages the skin from sagging. This botanically-based wash has a high content of antioxidants to help prevent free radical damage caused by sun exposure and pollution. Sulfate- and paraben-free.

The Lather cleanser has a light lotion-like texture with a subtle green hue. It has an extremely refreshing cucumber herbal scent. It reminded me of the Say Yes to Cucumbers brand. It felt just as refreshing applying it to my skin. Cool and soft. It rinsed off easily leaving no residues behind. Just smooth debris-free skin. Very effective!

Available at Amazon • Lather

Doe — Hair Pact — ★★★★

Value, $17 (Canadian)

Description: Treat your best accessory right! Hair needs moisture just like your skin. Take a mini escape with this Bora Bora Hair Pact, formulated to moisturize even the driest hair. Composed of a blend of natural and certified organic ingredients, this nourishing mask effectively targets dullness, dryness, and frizz for an overall improvement in the appearance and feeling of your hair.

It took 3 google searches to find their website. Ugh. But I found it!! And people need to find it, because this mask was out of this world!!

I love the packaging for a product like this. It was easy to squeeze out just the amount I needed and recap it with one hand. I always make more of a mess with a spoon into a jar.

The results. I’ve put straight up coconut oil on my locks and it was nothing compared to this mask. The addition of 5 other nourishing oils + vitamin E left my hair goddess like. It was soft and shiny! Completely without the oil-residue feeling. I left my mask on a few hours while working out and the like. I highly recommend.

Available at Doe Beauty

The entire February box was impressive! Considering they’re all my favorites, I’d have to say Palmetto Derma is my super favorite.
