alex+von: $25 e-Gift Card & Suki Skin Care Kit Giveaway (***CLOSED***)

10:07 AM Posted by Mommy Is Green


Whenever possible I try to support small eco-friendly businesses here in the US. I believe some of the best green products come from smaller businesses that care about offering safer alternatives. I'm being honest when I say that most of the products I feel are safer to use I cannot always get in a local store. So I do appreciate when I find an online shop that offers natural, organic, and eco-friendly products.

I was introduced to alex+von by Mia Bell, alex+von Independent Consultant. alex+von is a great new company that offers women the chance to start a business from home selling products from natural and organic boutique brands. Women have the opportunity to sell one or more brands online and/or in person. Each individual representative is able to choose the brands they'd like to sell. I think having that choice is wonderful because it lets me know that the independent reps are choosing products they believe in. I appreciate that each one is sharing their own personal recommendations.

Mia sells suki, 100% Pure, and weeDECOR on her alex+von site, www.alexandvon.com/miabell
. I was sent some really great suki skin care samples. I'll highlight my top 3 favorites:

Exfoliate Foaming Cleanser - I've been a fan of this facial cleanser for a while. I have the kind of skin where if I don't exfoliate I get blackheads. I rely on this to both purify and get rid of dead skin cells.
My skin feels very smooth, clean, and refreshed after using this product. The lemongrass in it smells wonderful too.

Balancing Day Lotion - My first impression was that the scent was a little too strong. I've been used to milder scents over the past two years so it could just be me. As for the way this non-greasy lotion works, I was very pleased. The first day I used my suki products I only cleansed with the Exfoliating Foaming Cleanser and used this lotion. I had a few blemishes on my face and by the end of the day they were barely visible. The cleanser and the lotion definitely make a good pair.

Pure Facial Moisture - Balancing - This is a light oil that helps fight bacteria and balance oil production. After all, oil dissolves oil (only natural oils work like this, not petroleum-based oils). I like to put this on after cleansing before bed. I have combination skin so it's light enough to work for both my oily and dry spots. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked this!

I didn't have any facial scrub or the proper toner for a few weeks before starting with my suki products. My facial skin was in need of some serious repair. Now I feel like I'm back on track and my skin is looking better. I even went ahead and took advantage of alex+von's suki August Special for a buy one, get one free complete care kit. I found the information under the alex+von Weekly Specials section. That's where you will find the latest deals.

I received some weeDECOR samples too. weeDECOR is a line of eco-friendly decorative wall decals. They are not vinyl like many other wall decals. Instead they are made from PVC-free fabric with an adhesive backing. They are removable, reusable, and biodegradable. I think they are an adorable way to decorate any children's room.


WIN IT!!!

One lucky Mommy Is Green reader will win a
$25 alex+von e-Gift Card &
suki To Go Jumpstart Nourishing Kit.
