Derma E Skin Care Products Reviews

Learn more about Derma E skin care products and my reviews of several of their most popular products.  Derma E is a natural skin care brand and one of my favorite natural, cruelty free beauty brands. It's been a while since I reviewed some skin care products, so I wanted to share some new goodies that Derma E sent me recently. I've had a longstanding relationship with Derma E.  They were one of the first brands to sponsor a post here at Everything Pretty, and I fell in love with their skin care products way back then. Although this post isn't sponsored, they did send me these products to try.  They are one of my favorite skin care brands and the one I reach for most often. I do make a lot of skin care products, but I don't delve into making my own cleansers and moisturizers because it's a delicate balance of ingredients, emulsifers, and preservatives. I'm glad that there are companies like Derma E who have natural and cruelty free products that really

26 Home Remedies for Cold and Cough

Get relief from your symptoms with these home remedies for cold and cough.  These easy recipes use herbs and essential oils to help you feel better naturally. It's the season for colds and coughs.  We stayed healthy over Christmas break, but I had two sick kids the week before Christmas and now I have a sick husband. When we are sick, I look to both medicines and home remedies for cold and cough.  I'm not opposed to taking over the counter medications or seeing the doctor, but I think home remedies have their place. I live in a rural area.  It's not just a quick trip to the store to get medicines.  I try to stay stocked up on cold, fever, and cough medications, but we do run out. It never fails that someone starts with symptoms Friday night through Sunday.  We are very limited for immediate care in my area.  Both options are more than half an hour each way and close early on weekends. Sometimes over the counter medications don't give me enough symptom relief
