TRY THE KISS MY FACE BRAND TOOTHPASTES!!! I have tried, spry, toms, Burt's bees etc.. All are gross! My husband and I have used kissmyface one for 5 years now and won't use anything else! Try it you will love it!
I'm a little late in watching/commenting-- but I have to agree that Kiss My Face (I love the Active Life) is a GREAT Natural Deod- so is Dr. Mist!! As for toothpaste, my favorite is Green Beaver, if you can find it! xo
I love the idea of no chemicals, parabens, and mineral oils! I've been looking for products like this that are affordable, and Sibu seems to be just that.
I have oily/combination skin, so I'm hoping they have something that would work great for me. :)
After watching this video I purchased some of the Sibu facial cleansers and serums I've heard of this brand before and the ingredient to be a " magic food" so I finally hoped n the bandwagon! Thanks for always sharing some great products! I love your videos! Btw to anyone looking to order there's a coupon code BERRYBEAUTY11 it's for 20% off any order over $20 I just used it & it worked!
I'm defiantly trying the Sibu line. I've been looking all over for something affordable, natural and that itvactuallybworks so thank you for this video!
I really like Nature's Gate products... they are all natural and vegan. I really like their hair care line and their lotions! I stumbled upon them at the Vitamin Shoppe, but I also shop on their website.
I've started using sibu's facial bar, repair and correct moisturizer and Josie maran argon oil for 2 weeks now and have already noticed huge improvements. My skin feels smooth and moisturized all day. I use the argon oil as a night moisturizer. Do you feel sibu's oil is better than Josie marans, Or are they similar? Thank you for recommending!
Thank you sooooo soooooo sooooo much Michele for your recommendation of Sibu. I have never had pimples in my life, but its been like two years that suddenly they just appeared. Thanks to you I have ordered the serum and the facial daytime cream and so far my pimples are slowly diminishing and the scars are healing. Thank you oh so much :)))))
I'm so happy that I've been able to find the Organics hair care line in the UK. My hair needs saving & these products look amazing! Thanks for sharing! x
Hey Michele!! What face cleansers does your fiancé use? Does he use the Sibu soap as a face cleanser? Because I want my husband to start taking care of his skin too:)
I found Sibu at the grocery store today and was so excited when I saw it! I tweeted you about it and was so grateful you responded. I picked up everything you mentioned. I just forgot the eye cream. I'm excited to try it out. -Susan
Michele, I just heard of a brand called Soleo Organics & they do a natural sunscreen! I haven't personally tried it, but since you're still on the hunt for one I thought you might be interested! They were named Elle magazine's best sunscreen a few years back, so maybe it's worth a try!
Thank you so much Michele! I can't thank you enough for recommending Sibu Products, my skin looks and feels amazing!. Thank you so much for making videos again, I felt like I lost a friend when you left, even my husband (fiance at the time) felt sad for me, I've been watching you for a long time but never had a youtube account till now so I haven't had a chance to tell you that everything you have recommeded has worked amazing for me, thankyou so much!
LOVE LOVE LOVE this video!!! I know you are going all natural in some products but what are your thoughts on other brands like Chanel, Nars, etc which has ingredients that are not so good for you?
@mc21atc I can never give up those brands....a lot of them contain parabans but the way I see it I wash it off everyday, lol. Try Korres Lip Butter...its my favorite!
I'm curious as to why you use the clarisonic in the mornings. I use once a day as well but at night since I feel that I have used makeup all day so I need a good cleansing as opposed to the mornings where my face is pretty clean. Just wondering your reasoning
i've been wanting to try lavanilla deodorant every since i bought their hand lotion, but i just can't pay that price! lol. maybe i'll try it one day. i'm slowly making the transition into healthier products and i've seen great results! especially since i have really curly, high maintenance hair. making the switch has DEFINITELY made a huge difference and i don't get as much frizz and it's a lot softer, shinier, and healthier overall. gonna definitely try some of these products

@assiracrose thanks for that infomation, i was thinking that oxygen and all that were elements since they were on the periodic table and whatnot, but ur right they're def chemicals my bad.
Loved this vid! Another lotion/brand I would recommend to you is SheaMoisture in raw shea butter (they also have cocout hibiscus which is nice in the summer). The shower gel is sooo moisturizing and equally amazing. This brand is free from all the gunk and bad stuff. It is sold in the natural product aisle of Target.=O)
I just wanted to let you know I was on the PETA site earlier when I was searching for a deep conditioner that didn't test on animals and the L'Oreal EVERPURE line is sulfate, organic, and 100% vegan according to their site! :)
Idk if u have been asked this or answered it but how long does a sibu product typicaly last u with daily usage? I am always on the market for a good moisturizer and face wash. I am now out of my arbonne products which I have been loyal to for a year and they appear to b in the same price range so I am willing to try. jus curious.
contd: only drawback of weledas deodorants is that they are non aresol sprays, but have naturally derived alcohol which can burn after shaving but it works. I layer mine with my lavanilla. WARNING: do not buy HUGOS naturals deodorants. its like glue on ur pits & wont come off nor does it work. HORRIBLE. lol. Ive been on a journey w/naturals since 2003. Dr. Hauscha has a good rose deodorant & other scents. I use to buy it all the time. The whole toms line dissapointed me. Try the tooth soap!
HA! I USE THAT LAVANILLA deodorant too and notice that cold feeling. LOL. I kept reading it to figure it out. Its nice for summer. I carry it with me & reapply, but it is heavy in weight for my purse. Tooth soap dot com has liquid (olive oil, etc. mix) in cinnamon or other flavors w/o any chemicals..lathers & feels great on teeth. slick feeling afterward. I love it!!! no paste. Also Im trying ecodent powder for remineralizing sensitive teeth. I also liked weleda salt toothpaste & their deodorant
Why doesn't sibu have a toner? Which toner do u use or which is good? I remember u once said Elemis, but I'm not gonna buy it, if Elemis isn't good, or maybe with all the sibu products.. A toner isn't nessecary? Thanks lemme know, or follow me on twitter, I follow you, I'm @pulvy24 I have mine on private so I wasn't sure, if when u tweet u, u see it, if mines on private and ur not following me. Thanks. Love love love ur videos, take so many recommendations. Im gonna purchase sibu luxe pack
If you looking for another shampoo and conditioner you should try the ones by DermOrganic, there a Argan Oil Shampoo and Masque and there vegan, sulfate free, sodium chloride free, they don't test on animals, and there also paraben DEA free as well, I ordered it on Amazon and really like it
You should try Green Beaver products, they're great! They make awesome toothpaste as well as loads of other natural organic products! =) I'm from canada, and it's a Canadian company... I really hope you guys have them in America! Or maybe you can order it online? The products aren't very expensive, you can find them at Whole Foods =)
You should try the blue Organix shampoo it's the argan oil one, I love it and I know you will too besides the smell it actually makes my hair feel really great the shampoo creates a great lather which is hard to get from a sulfate free shampoo and the conditioner is thick and moisturizing. Plus if you get the oil that's also in the line it can act as a heat protectant ohhh and also I know you probably buy yours at CVS which is good if theres a sale but Walmart always has them for 6 dollars each!
My skin's been really dry lately (I have super oily skin so this literally never happened to me before) so I've been looking for some new moisturizers. I just checked out Sibu's site and I'm super excited to try some of their stuff!
Also, I heard that Shea Terra makes a argon oil that works just as well as the Josie Maran but for a much cheaper price. =)
Michele, can you tell me if your organix keratin shampoo is the same consistancy of jello? I know it's a silly question, but I purchased the shampoo and conditioner based off of your reviews and my conditioner was liquidy/runny but the shampoo was more of a jelly. I went back to the store and checked the other bottles and they were the same. I'm curious if this is how the shampoo really is or if maybe they've been on the shelf for too long.
i had a hard time finding a good natural toothpaste also, but i really like jasons powersmile. it is awesome!!! and you should look at shea moisture. they sell it at taget and walgreens and their products are great and smell amazing!!! they have body wash, shampoo and conditioner and lotions!
I will say another organic you can get to mosturize hair or skin is coconut oil. I have used it to condition hair and moisturized skin, and it works wonderfully.~Dana
Hey Michele!! I just wanted to tell you that I am soooo happy that you decided to come back to YouTube. Please never leave again! I was just checking your old videos and I am pretty sure when I say that we were lost here on YouTube with you. I was watching other channel and I can say no videos are Luke yours.
One quick question if you have a chance, I believe from your video you said you wash your face in the morning with the liquid cleanser and mia and then at night with the bar? I may switch it and try bar in morning ,liquid with mia at night just to make sure all of my makeup is off. Please let me know what you think ! thanks again
I ordered sibu! I can't wait to get it. Recently my face has been breaking out on my chin area and only on my chin the rest of my face is clear, I never had acne has a teen, now I am in my late 20's and have tried everything! I keep buying and buying face products , masks, washes, you name it. I am going to go broke at this rate! I'm going to give it a try!
i heard talc is good to use as deodorant but there are lost of studies about a lot of "chemicals" but there are not conclusions...we are exposed to a lot of chemicals and bad things but most of them are not a harm as we don't get the in big quantities. I try to stay away from parabens but there are sooo many stuff in everything!
I'm surprised that Sibu said they can't make a moisturizer with SPF, because they could use physical ingredients like titanium dioxide and zinc oxide to provide the sun protection factor, many natural sunscreens are made that way...
My top natural/organic brands: 100% Pure Cosmetics (amazing ingredients), Bubble & Bee (I love their lip balms! They also make a deodorant that I bought but haven't tried yet), MiEssence (amazing organic products)... Haven't found a toothpaste that I love yet... Hope it helps :)
Love Sibu too. Keep the the therapeutic oil on hand ALL THE TIME. I have mature skin & for the 1st time in my life I have blemishes d/t hormonal changes & they're horrible. Having dry skin & blemishes leaves me frustrated! It amazes me that I can use the therapeutic sea buckthorn seed oil straight on my face & It helps blemishes in the healing stage or any stage. Thankfully, it does NOT clog my pores so I use it under my m/u to protect & cover the dry scab (sorry to be gross) & it looks better.
hahaha the same thing happened to me when I used the Lavanilla deodorant. It made my armpits feel like I just put on a gel/wet deodorant and I would be afraid it was leaving marks on my clothes
A great alternative for toothpastes is baking soda. I have used baking soda for about 5 years now and I'll admit it does not taste the best but it works like you would not believe. It is also a natural whitener and breath freshener. Another fun fact about baking soda is you can also use it in your hair, which is what I also do.
There is no conclusive research linking the use of underarm antiperspirants or deodorants and the subsequent development of breast cancer. - straight from the NIH (National Institute of Health).
I recommend everyone to do a simple search in a scientific search engine that has peer-reviewed scientific journals. If you can't find a scientific, peer-reviewed article whose results are significant (!!!), then the basis for "a lot of people say aluminum in deodorants can cause damage" is not enough.
Deodorant: i've been using a deodorant from Matis the last year or so. Clean smell, wont irritate your skin and long- lasting!! Matis is a quality skincare brand which , in general, makes amazing products for body/face. I'm not sure what online store sells it, but google is probably your friend in this case:)
Moisturizer: at Ulta is a well priced product called Tree Hut Shea Body Butter. Parabens, petrol oils and SLS free. Cruelty free.
Toothpaste: Jason makes nice natural toothpastes that are SLS free.
Deodorant: Weleda makes a really nice spray on acohol based deodorant that lasts quite a while. If you spray straight alcohol onto your pits, it will suppress some of the bacteria that contributes to odor. I'm a fan of the Lush deodorants.
So I was at my local drugstore, here in my medium sized Canadian city yesterday, and I saw Sibu products. No clue why they sell them, but I picked them up. So Canadians, check your Rexalls! You never know what will be in the natural section!
Try Arm&Hammer Essentials Natural Deodorant!! I LOVE it. I have a ton of backups because I can only find it at Walmart and am afraid one day they wont have it anymore.
after watching your videos for years and hearing you're switching to use more cruelty-free, paraben-free, etc things, i've been more conscious of the ingredients in my products. i'm not totally dedicated into trying to switch everything because that's just a lot of work! but i am getting more conscious of it, which is better than nothing. :) so thank you for opening my mind and eyes. i even bought an organix conditioner hearing good things about it from you! (:
i love watching your videos :-)..unfortunately i dont have the possibility to buy most of the things you talk about because i live in germany..but i will study from august at the san diego state university and then buy all the stuff....looking forward to your next video...and sorry for my english .-)
I go for a more natural approach when it comes to my face and body too. Have you ever heard of Chagrin Valley Soaps? They have all natural/organic soaps for face and body. They carry shampoo and body butters all in different scents. I love their products and they're at a great price point! Thanks for all your videos :)
@11jadestone11 .. I use the lavender essential oil from Young Living , baking-soda & coconut oil as a deodorant ( YL is the company that sell Thieves toothpaste)
I use thieves toothpaste , I might have to try it as a deodorant too. I also use the thieves concentrate to clean my kitchen , sometime in my laundry to freshen things up.. But my favorite of the thieves line is the thieves essential oil, i diffuse it to help get rid of the cold/flu virus , I use it in my massage practice topically and
I didn't know you were cruelty-free! You should check out cosmeticcouturier and Barbiedlux's channels because both of them are cruelty free gurus and have wonderful information. Also, go to the leaping bunny website because they have a list of cruelty-free brands :)
Your supposed to re apply spf how ever strong it is like spf 15 your supposed to re apply every 15 minutes and so on and so on so it would wear off after so long anyways ?
What do you make of Origins? I've tried a line of their products alongside the Mia clarisonic and I've been loving the results. I've never had major problems with my skin, but I did get my fair share of blemishes. Ever since using the products it's kept my skin balanced and moisturised. I know what you mean by the eye cream, as long as they feel hydrated after your makeups been taken off, I think that's a good job done :) x loved this video!!! Xx
I love this video! I only use cruelty-free products, and when you first mentioned Sibu, I was sold and ordered the facial soap and the eventually, the day moisturizer and I've never gone back. So thank you so that, and this video :)
NaturesKnockout talked about a funky natural deodorant idea that they swear by... it sounds crazy and I haven't got around to trying it yet because I do kinda like the LaVanilla one... but they use a natural toothpaste called Thieves Dentarome Plus, a pea sized amount they said worked as like a cream on their underarms... who knows haha! Maybe you'd like that as a toothpaste too? That'd be weird though, I think you'd need two tubes :)
omg! So the second we started talking about the SPF and it being hard to create because SPF is made from chemicals... I'm like, whoa, what if its the SPF that causes skin cancer? I'm tripping out, I need to Google.
I mix my own deodorant..organic essential oil in lavender ( or any scent you'd like ) , organic coconut oil & baking soda... Works better than anything I've ever bought :)
I really liked the Brazilian therapy too until I realized its not as natural as they claim. It has methyllisothiazolinone in it which is also a preservative just like parabens. Companies are substituting this ingredient now because of the bad rap parabens have. It is just as dangerous. Crazy what they can get away with!
@melcour78 Parabens are the safest and most tested types of preservatives there are. They prevent contamination from bacteria and other types of micro-organisms. Without them, cosmetics would be dangerous to use. They are found naturally in blueberries, and are so safe that they are constantly used in foods. Companies that are 'paraben-free' do so because people will buy their product. It is simply, and nothing more than a marketing ploy.
for deodorant: Arm & Hammer Essentials Natural Deodorant- (aluminum free, paraben free) it's good but not great. I like the smell but it doesn't always last all day. Maybe we just have to get used to that!
I think your videos and reviews are very informative, I do enjoy your opinions. So I don't mean to be mean when I say that you messing with your hair and bangs the entire video is very very distracting to me. I know it's probably a habit and you don't even realize you're doing it. Sorry.
i really really really want to try the sibu cleansing bar but I find it soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo hard to pay more for the shipping than I am for the actual product thats so stupid to me which is why I havent ordered it.... they need to bring down their shipping or give a coupon code or something.... because the shipping for one product is ridiculous.....
@BeautybyKatherine They sell it on amazon.com and if you have a prime membership it qualifies for free two day shipping! I bought one bar back in June and I still have 1/2 of it left six months later, so even if you count the shipping as part of the cost it is more than worth it.
Articles in the press and on the Internet have warned that underarm antiperspirants (a preparation that reduces underarm sweat) or deodorants (a preparation that destroys or masks unpleasant odors) cause breast cancer (1). . However, researchers at the National Cancer Institute (NCI), a part of the National Institutes of Health, are not aware of any conclusive evidence linking the use of underarm antiperspirants or deodorants and the subsequent development of breast cancer.
have you tried alba botanica products? they're also all natural, organic, cruelty-free ingredients and 100% vegetarian. i wanted to try their products but i don't know anyone who uses them :(
I will say that Josie Maran Argon Oil broke me out big time. Now I just use it for my hair because it breaks me out every time I use it on my skin. For an oil for my skin instead I use Kukui oil - I use oils of Aloha brand...just a tip for those who can use the argon oil.
i'm using the organix shampoo and conditioner after hearing your recommendation. and i LOVE it :D! they make my hair feel so soft and healthier than before :). thank you! <3

contd: only drawback of weledas deodorants is that they are non aresol sprays, but have naturally derived alcohol which can burn after shaving but it works. I layer mine with my lavanilla. WARNING: do not buy HUGOS naturals deodorants. its like glue on ur pits & wont come off nor does it work. HORRIBLE. lol. Ive been on a journey w/naturals since 2003. Dr. Hauscha has a good rose deodorant & other scents. I use to buy it all the time. The whole toms line dissapointed me. Try the tooth soap!

HA! I USE THAT LAVANILLA deodorant too and notice that cold feeling. LOL. I kept reading it to figure it out. Its nice for summer. I carry it with me & reapply, but it is heavy in weight for my purse. Tooth soap dot com has liquid (olive oil, etc. mix) in cinnamon or other flavors w/o any chemicals..lathers & feels great on teeth. slick feeling afterward. I love it!!! no paste. Also Im trying ecodent powder for remineralizing sensitive teeth. I also liked weleda salt toothpaste & their deodorant

Why doesn't sibu have a toner? Which toner do u use or which is good? I remember u once said Elemis, but I'm not gonna buy it, if Elemis isn't good, or maybe with all the sibu products.. A toner isn't nessecary? Thanks lemme know, or follow me on twitter, I follow you, I'm @pulvy24 I have mine on private so I wasn't sure, if when u tweet u, u see it, if mines on private and ur not following me. Thanks.

If you looking for another shampoo and conditioner you should try the ones by DermOrganic, there a Argan Oil Shampoo and Masque and there vegan, sulfate free, sodium chloride free, they don't test on animals, and there also paraben DEA free as well, I ordered it on Amazon and really like it

You should try Green Beaver products, they're great! They make awesome toothpaste as well as loads of other natural organic products! =) I'm from canada, and it's a Canadian company... I really hope you guys have them in America! Or maybe you can order it online? The products aren't very expensive, you can find them at Whole Foods =)

You should try the blue Organix shampoo it's the argan oil one, I love it and I know you will too besides the smell it actually makes my hair feel really great the shampoo creates a great lather which is hard to get from a sulfate free shampoo and the conditioner is thick and moisturizing. Plus if you get the oil that's also in the line it can act as a heat protectant ohhh and also I know you probably buy yours at CVS which is good if theres a sale but Walmart always has them for 6 dollars each!

My skin's been really dry lately (I have super oily skin so this literally never happened to me before) so I've been looking for some new moisturizers. I just checked out Sibu's site and I'm super excited to try some of their stuff!

Michele, can you tell me if your organix keratin shampoo is the same consistancy of jello? I know it's a silly question, but I purchased the shampoo and conditioner based off of your reviews and my conditioner was liquidy/runny but the shampoo was more of a jelly. I went back to the store and checked the other bottles and they were the same. I'm curious if this is how the shampoo really is or if maybe they've been on the shelf for too long.

i heard talc is good to use as deodorant but there are lost of studies about a lot of "chemicals" but there are not conclusions...we are exposed to a lot of chemicals and bad things but most of them are not a harm as we don't get the in big quantities. I try to stay away from parabens but there are sooo many stuff in everything!

I'm surprised that Sibu said they can't make a moisturizer with SPF, because they could use physical ingredients like titanium dioxide and zinc oxide to provide the sun protection factor, many natural sunscreens are made that way...

Love Sibu too. Keep the the therapeutic oil on hand ALL THE TIME. I have mature skin & for the 1st time in my life I have blemishes d/t hormonal changes & they're horrible. Having dry skin & blemishes leaves me frustrated! It amazes me that I can use the therapeutic sea buckthorn seed oil straight on my face & It helps blemishes in the healing stage or any stage. Thankfully, it does NOT clog my pores so I use it under my m/u to protect & cover the dry scab (sorry to be gross) & it looks better.

A great alternative for toothpastes is baking soda. I have used baking soda for about 5 years now and I'll admit it does not taste the best but it works like you would not believe. It is also a natural whitener and breath freshener. Another fun fact about baking soda is you can also use it in your hair, which is what I also do.

There is no conclusive research linking the use of underarm antiperspirants or deodorants and the subsequent development of breast cancer. - straight from the NIH (National Institute of Health).
I recommend everyone to do a simple search in a scientific search engine that has peer-reviewed scientific journals. If you can't find a scientific, peer-reviewed article whose results are significant (!!!), then the basis for "a lot of people say aluminum in deodorants can cause damage" is not enough.

Moisturizer: at Ulta is a well priced product called Tree Hut Shea Body Butter. Parabens, petrol oils and SLS free. Cruelty free.
Toothpaste: Jason makes nice natural toothpastes that are SLS free.
Deodorant: Weleda makes a really nice spray on acohol based deodorant that lasts quite a while. If you spray straight alcohol onto your pits, it will suppress some of the bacteria that contributes to odor. I'm a fan of the Lush deodorants.

NaturesKnockout talked about a funky natural deodorant idea that they swear by... it sounds crazy and I haven't got around to trying it yet because I do kinda like the LaVanilla one... but they use a natural toothpaste called Thieves Dentarome Plus, a pea sized amount they said worked as like a cream on their underarms... who knows haha! Maybe you'd like that as a toothpaste too? That'd be weird though, I think you'd need two tubes :)

I really liked the Brazilian therapy too until I realized its not as natural as they claim. It has methyllisothiazolinone in it which is also a preservative just like parabens. Companies are substituting this ingredient now because of the bad rap parabens have. It is just as dangerous. Crazy what they can get away with!
melcour78 1 month ago
@melcour78 Parabens are the safest and most tested types of preservatives there are. They prevent contamination from bacteria and other types of micro-organisms. Without them, cosmetics would be dangerous to use. They are found naturally in blueberries, and are so safe that they are constantly used in foods. Companies that are 'paraben-free' do so because people will buy their product. It is simply, and nothing more than a marketing ploy.

@BeautybyKatherine They sell it on amazon.com and if you have a prime membership it qualifies for free two day shipping! I bought one bar back in June and I still have 1/2 of it left six months later, so even if you count the shipping as part of the cost it is more than worth it.

Articles in the press and on the Internet have warned that underarm antiperspirants (a preparation that reduces underarm sweat) or deodorants (a preparation that destroys or masks unpleasant odors) cause breast cancer (1). . However, researchers at the National Cancer Institute (NCI), a part of the National Institutes of Health, are not aware of any conclusive evidence linking the use of underarm antiperspirants or deodorants and the subsequent development of breast cancer.
