Hi Laura,
I think that the washes, both face and body,
would be appropriate.
They have no synthetic chemicals and should
not irritate your skin.
And yes, you are correct, the eye and the Mask
should be fine, too!
How about a light weight day time moisturizer?
Our Normal to sensitive skin line should be
just fine.
I also think that the Bath Kit with the Bath Salts
and the Body Moisture (it also has the body
wash so you don’t have to order that
separately. Check out ShopNBC for best prices!)
would be just amazing for your body-but also:
I think that while in the tub, the salts could
be nice to wash your face with to help bring
your skin back to proper PH. Give it a try
once at first and see what happens.
You see, the problem is that you are not in
front of me. So I am not sure WHY you have
such oily skin-Do you have a Dr. that you
work with?
I always recommend one- I have one myself!
The reason I am saying this is because oily
skin can be caused by several underlying
problems. Is your skin irritated by something
(possibly a chemical laden skin care or wash?)
and it is responding by making oils?
Or is it actually really dry underneath and only
oily on top? If that is the case, my sister had that problem
and she loves my products.
But I do not want you to just take my word for
it, you know?
I want you to run my products past your Dr.
to make sure they are just right for YOU!
Thank you so much for writing and i hope that
i have somewhat helped you out….
with Warm Regards,
CA

Hi Laura,
I think for sure the washes(face and body)
would be appropriate.
Since we use no synthetic chemicals. They
won’t irritate your skin.
And yes, you are right, the eye and the Mask
should be fine.
I would also try the day moisturizer for normal
and sensitive skin. It is a very light-weight
formula-I am not sure you need the extra moisture
that a night or anti aging cream or serum
would offer.
I would use the day cream also on my neck.
I also think the body kit with the Bath salts
and body moisture would be fine.
Also if I may: use a water based foundation.
and a mineral powder during the day. Not the
oil based foundation. But perhaps you already
know that!
Have you seen a Dr? What does he say? And if
you have a Dr. (which I recommend as I have
one)-run my products past him for extra
assurance!
Sometimes, Oily skin is only oily on top and
dry below, a close friend had that problem.
In that case, you could possibly use the restoring
night cream, too!
Since i do not know what is exactly causing
your oily skin, I also suggest you make sure
you eat healthy RAW foods like salads with COLD
PRESSED oils.
Thank you for your question. I hope i have helped
or at least pointed you in the right direction.

Hello Carol,
I am 41yo and have EXTREMELY oily acne prone skin. Are you products appropriate for me? Obviously the eye cream and mask would be fine but what about the other products???

Thanks!

are you looking at MY products? they are RAW, chem-free, laurel sulfate-free, paraben-free and nothing is cooked over 115 degrees–
are you looking at RAWESSENTIALS.COM?

Can you make products that are chemical/paraben free? for chemically sensitive/intolerant people? Otherwise, your products arent any different than the others? For autoimmune people who understand the ramifications that the skin is our largest organ and parabens are carcinogenic.
I am disappointed that your presentation was a misnomer for your products?

hi carol! i have a lot of hyper pigmentation on my face, and i have to use a sun block nolower than spf30. can i use it after your moisturizer, and when are you coming out with a sun block? i am all about good skin than good makeup, and hate being out in the sun, but unfurtunately hormones have caused my melasma. i would like to give your line a try, but the sun block thing is holding me back. thanks for any input you can give me! sincerely, mary kimbrough

i purchased your three piece set on hsn and loved it. I purchased the larger set a few weeks ago in addition to the night cream as a seprate purchase the night cream is not the same as the sample in the three piece set aloe was the first item in the three piece set this new one starts with water it does not have the same nice smell as the sample which i loved i have not checked on the other ingrediants in the cleanser or the mosturizer as i have not used them up yet’.
