7 Beauty Products We’re Currently Geeking Out About

From Snail BB Cream to Aztec Clay Masks and Facial Oils, Our Current Beauty Buys Worth Raving About
Filed Under > Beauty & Tutorials

I’ll be the first to tell you that it’s impossible to deny the lure of new beauty buys after reading about them every day. But if we’re being honest here, I’ll clarify that I don’t really fight it…I love love love discovering new beauty products.  So when I find a great new beauty buy (safe ingredients, good results and a reasonable price-point) from any of my go-to resources (Byrdie, Into the Gloss, Goop & The Coveteur), I want to sing it from the rooftop.  Luckily, MKR is just as eager to try a new beauty buy as me, so we’re always sharing our new finds and swapping recommendations.

This brings me to the five we’re currently geeking out over.  I call it “geeking out” because we tend to be big nerds when it comes to all-natural, creative ways to improve our beauty routine. I’m not above trying BB Cream that involves snail mucus, nor will I scoff at the idea of an ancient Aztec clay mask mixed with apple cider vinegar

Since so many of you loved our post on 8 natural beauty habits to adopt, you’ll appreciate these beauty finds we recently passed around the WOM team.  A big plus?  A lot of these beauty products are reasonably priced, which makes me love them even more.  Click through the slideshow above, let me know if you’ve also had luck with these buys, and of course, share any others you’ve found!  Cheers, Kat

P.S. I’ve included a few more beauty buys on the brain below (specifically by Herbivore BotanicalsRMS Beauty and Tata Harper) that I would love to hear your thoughts/recommendations.  xo
