I have found a match made in heaven when it comes to my beauty ritual and Live Botanical’s gorgeous line of beauty products. I had a lull (for years) when it came to finding quality clean beauty products when I first started switching over and this line of botanical potions would have done the trick!

Organic Hannahpads: 10 Reasons you should try Cloth pads + FAQ’s Answered

They are made of plastic, they crinkle every time you move, they bunch up causing leakage, they are itchy against the skin, they smell terrible, and are filled with chemicals used to absorb.
