I was recommended the face serum from Seeb organics from a source I really trust. Looking forward to trying it out.
I've messed around with putting oils on my face, but I felt like it was counterproductive(?), since I have an oily face. Still something I wonder about.
I hear tallow works really well. I think The Van Man sells a good one, still need to try.
For me, I use thermal water (whatever is cheapest, I cycle through them), like Vichy or La Roche Posee. I find it helps the skin, and as a side benefit, cools you down on hot days. It has lots of minerals.
I know nutrition has a lot to do with it... and sun. When I go to eastern europe, people my age look 10 years younger, because they get less sun damage, and just eat really healthy meals like lots of soups with veggies, just healthy home cooking.
This girl there I knew who had amazing skin would always be drinking carrot juice, I think that helps too.
In terms of shampoo I can recommend a very organic product I found: North American Herb and Spice shampoo (they also sell a conditioner).
It's made from pure plant extracts... I used "organic" shampoos that still had weird chemical names in them, and would be like "95% organic", etc... NAHS shampoo is literally 100% organic and natural, the ingredients are just like "rose water, oregano oil, etc." I was surprised and stoked I found them.
Doesn't smell as good as a commercial shampoo, but my sister, who hates organic stuff and thinks its some hippie trend, even was surprised how soft that shampoo left her hair.
But besides that... I've found just cutting aloe vera from my garden and rubbing it all over my face and hair and scalp helps a lot. Aloe vera is like a magical cure, it helps with everything. I tried making a aloe vera / goat milk / vitamin E concoction myself before, my ex-gf's mom swore by it, that might help more. I tried it for a while, with things like that it's hard to tell over time what really helps, but she was telling me these miracle stories about it working wonders for her coworkers.
