Mother's Day Gift Guide-Ecco Bella Review and Giveaway

Posted by Ellie-A Little of This and a Little of That at 4:12 PM
 Sally Malanga , President of Ecco Bella started Ecco Bella out of protest to the use of animals for testing cosmetics, and it expanded to the natural universe of organics and nutraceuticals as well.  The products are free of water, gluten, dyes and preservatives.

From the website:
Since 1992, Ecco Bella has been known as a pioneer in the natural beauty field. Back then, it was virtually impossible to find organic materials for our products but they persisted.  By using organics we not only purify our bodies, we also support ethical farmers who need and appreciate our business. Ecco Bella products are 50%-70% organic!

They are a health and wellness beauty brand that has revolutionized holistic, organic, cruelty-free products. Holistic doctor approved, we offer a unique expertise in beauty, nutrition and wellness. We create natural beauty products that help people achieve their full potential in both wellness and beauty.

Ecco Bella sent me The Elite Collection and Pharmacy Favorites Cafe Au Lait Lip Color.

The Elite Collection is a carefully chosen collection of some of our most popular shades for lips, cheeks and eyes. A beautiful neutral palette of colors with shimmery and deeper shades, all in one convenient compact! Retouching on the go is easy! Just put your favorite shades into a Paperback Duo Compact. (Includes a mirror and two applicators.)










Colors included:
Lipsticks: Sangria, Primrose, Napa Grape Frost, Chocolate.
Gloss: Pleasure, Peace. Blush: Nutmeg, Earthy Rose.
Eyeshadow: Sapphire, Smokey Mauve, Vanilla, Camel.
Shimmer Powder: Star.
Powder Eyeliner: Charcoal.













Cafe Au Lait







Make-up from earth minerals infused with flower waxes.  As a flower stays beautiful over time, this flower wax-infused make-up glides on and lasts longer. Professionals use it, actresses demand it. You'll love it. It's ecology gone beautiful. Look for the refillable compacts for eyeshadow and blush. Gluten-free cosmetics. Preservative-free* cosmetics.  For sensitive skin.   

Here are the categories they carry:

Hi Ellie,
This one sounds intriguing to me:
Lemon Verbena eau de Parfum
$21.50
This hand-crafted fragrance is rare in modern times. Lemon Verbena: The fresh and clean citrus has a flowering of Egyptian geranium and French lavender. Choose it when you want to feel uplifted, refreshed and spontaneous. This scent elicits joy and optimism.

Ingredients: Grain alcohol, Lemon, lemongrass, rosemary and geranium.
