Performance Rating:<\/strong> \"5 (5 \/ 5)<\/span><\/p>\n

Ingredients Rating:<\/strong> \"4 (4 \/ 5)<\/span><\/p>\n

Processed Fragrance:\u00a0<\/strong>Bergamot Oil, Linalool, Lemongrass Oil, Palmarosa Oil, Lemon Oil, Orange Oil, Texas Cedarwood Oil, Rose Geranium Oil, Rose Oil, Australian Sandalwood Oil, Linalool, Limonene, Geraniol, Citral, Citronellol, Farnesol<\/span><\/p>\n

The description of this product reads, “This multi-tasking cleansing balm, perfect for day and night use, hydrates while it cleanses, removing makeup and impurities with nourishing ingredients that won\u2019t strip away your skin\u2019s natural moisture. (Bonus: it can also be used as a mask for a hydrating overnight facial.) With a blend of lotus extract, jojoba seed oil, and avocado seed oil, Lotus Glow Cleansing Balm soothes and destresses skin while increasing luminosity. To use as a mask, massage into skin and leave on overnight.”<\/span><\/p>\n

This product contains a mixture of wax and oil (basically a cold cream) that is labeled primarily as being useful for makeup removal.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, Beautycounter suggests that the product also can be used as an overnight mask<\/span><\/p>\n

I have been using it overnight periodically when my face is feeling very dry and my face does feel much more hydrated and happier in the morning.<\/span><\/p>\n

(I do lightly wash my face to remove any leftover wax when I wake up.)<\/span><\/p>\n

This seems to be a quite clean product even compared to other Beautycounter moisturizers, with the only substances that Beautycounter considers to be problematic being botanicals rather than chemicals.<\/span><\/p>\n

I think it has a nice citrus scent and is very pleasant to use.<\/span><\/p>\n

The price of the product also makes a lot more sense to me when I think of it as a moisturizer rather than a cleanser (though it does do a good job of removing heavy makeup as well).<\/span><\/p>\n

The description of this product reads, “This dermatologist-tested overnight face mask is powered by floral extracts\u2014passionflower, cornflower, cherry blossom, and peony\u2014to calm and reduce the look of redness on sensitive skin. Formulated with vitamin C and squalane to brighten and smooth, this overnight face mask envelops skin with a cocooning experience. Calms sensitive skin by reducing visible redness, uneven skin tone & rough texture.”<\/span><\/p>\n

I’ve tried several skincare products by Fresh and feel that this is the best of everything that I have tried so far.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Although it includes some kind of unspecified fragrance – and although it’s my understanding that Fresh perfumes all include synthetic fragrance ingredients – the scent seems really mild and unobjectionable to me.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While I’m not sure that I feel good enough about this product that I would want to use it on a regular basis, it does offer some useful hydration and has not caused anything more than very slight irritation on the occasions that I have used it.<\/p>\n

The main issue that I have is that I feel like this is a quite expensive product and that the money that I would need to spend purchasing it could be put to much better use on other skincare products that would be more helpful to my skin.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I do think it’s not too bad compared to the majority of the skincare products sold at Sephora stores or similar mainstream beauty retailers though.<\/span><\/p>\n

About This Website<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The Living Clean in a Dirty World shopping website is designed to provide guidance to those seeking out products that are relatively low in toxicity and that provide generally positive user experiences.<\/span><\/p>\n

Although the skincare and makeup sections have a particular focus on products appropriate for women who are in their 40’s or beyond, the information provided may be useful for other people as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

The products are curated by Lisa Petrison,<\/strong><\/a> who has been focused on helping people to improve their health by avoiding toxicity since 2008 and who heads the Paradigm Change organization.<\/span><\/p>\n

Her\u00a0Living Clean in a Dirty World blog site<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0discusses a variety of topics of relevance to those who are working to pursue a more natural lifestyle with less exposure to harmful toxicity.<\/span><\/p>\n

Lisa is the author of several books, including\u00a0A Beginner’s Guide to Mold Avoidance<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0(co-written with Erik Johnson).<\/span><\/p>\n

She also runs the Paradigm Change website<\/strong><\/a> (focusing on issues related to toxic mold illness) and the Mold Avoiders Facebook group<\/strong><\/a> (designed for the discussion of all topics of interest to those pursuing the mold avoidance approach described in the “Beginner’s Guide” book).<\/span><\/p>\n

Lisa was born in August 1964 and has yet to try cosmetic surgery, Botox or other cosmetic treatments requiring interactions with a physician, or beauty products containing retinoids.<\/span><\/p>\n

In her former life, Lisa worked as a business school professor, as a marketing consultant to a variety of large companies, and as a reporter covering the advertising industry.<\/span><\/p>\n

She holds a Ph.D. in marketing and social psychology from the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University as well as B.S.\/M.S. degrees from the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern.<\/span><\/p>\n

Lisa would like to extend a special note of appreciation to Ellen Kleiman-Redden for her help in trying out products and discussing issues related to this project.<\/span><\/p>\n

She also would like to thank the many members of the Mold Avoiders community who have shared suggestions of products to be included here.<\/span><\/p>\n

A Note From Lisa<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Products that I have tried or researched and that I have not found to be acceptable from a toxicity standpoint have been omitted entirely from the discussions on this website.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, since a goal of this project is to introduce people to a range of options in terms of price and functionality, some products discussed on this site include ingredients that may not be appropriate for everyone.<\/span><\/p>\n

It’s my hope that all individuals making their way to this site will find at least a few options from each product category that meet all of their own needs and wants from a variety of perspectives.<\/span><\/p>\n

The vast majority of cosmetics marketers now offer affiliate programs in which Internet content creators may earn commissions if people who are referred to the companies’ sites by clicking on links end up making purchases.<\/span><\/p>\n

I participate in quite a few individual affiliate programs as well as in the Sovrn\/Viglinks program (which automatically converts regular links into revenue-generating links).<\/span><\/p>\n

Links on this page that may result in affiliate income may include – but are not necessarily limited to – those from the following companies: Amazon, Annmarie, Beautycounter, Caudalie, Cocokind, Credo, Drunk Elephant, Evolve, Farmacy, Fresh, Herbivore, Honest, Marie Veronique, REN, Sephora, Target, True Botanicals, Ulta, Youth To The People.<\/span><\/p>\n

Reader comments about products discussed on this website are very welcome.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thoughts may be shared either by posting them in the comments section at the bottom of this page or by sending them directly to me at the following email address:<\/span><\/p>\n

Companies that would like to offer me complimentary products to try out may contact me at this address as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

Individuals who are seeking out less-toxic products or who are interested in pursuing a cleaner and healthier lifestyle may want to sign up to receive occasional email newsletters<\/strong><\/a> from Living Clean in a Dirty World.<\/span><\/p>\n

Those signing up will receive a free PDF copy of the book Back From The Edge<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>(describing the extraordinary life of mold avoidance pioneer Erik Johnson) and also will be automatically entered in sweepstakes giving away a variety of cleaner products.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thanks very much for visiting the Living Clean in a Dirty World shopping site!<\/span><\/p>\n
