A while ago(wow 2.5 years ago!) I wrote this post about how I got rid of my adult acne. After I switched to natural face wash and toothpaste it basically cleared up and went away. It was kind of amazing. I still use natural toothpaste to this day.

Brushing wasn't enough for me though. And since I despise seeing the dentist I figured I should take better care of my mouth. Especially since oral health is actually a HUGE factor in general health and wellness. But that's a whole other blog post.

Anyways, I started flossing more. I've done oil pulling but I feel like it takes a lot more effort then I'm into. I bought mouthwash and it was WAY to harsh and left a yucky chemical taste in my mouth.

Solution: this awesome Brushing Rinse by Essential Oxygen! It's made with fair trade and organic ingredients too!

How you use it: Shake the bottle, put a small amount in your mouth and swish around. Instead of spitting out, like you would with traditional washes you keep it in while you brush your teeth. DON'T WORRY your mouth will not be on fire. It honestly just feels really fresh! You brush your teeth as normal with the rinse and ta-da! Fresh clean mouth.

Essential Oxygen says it's good for anti-cavity, teeth whitening, fresh breath, canker sores and sensitive teeth!

To top it off it's non toxic, organic and biodegradable...... so yeah, good for you, good for the planet, win win.

Since about the age of 12 I have had problems with my face. Pimples and so on. I turn 30 in a week and it's been driving me nuts that its carried into my adult life. I've switched to a lot of products and used harsh this and that to cleanse my face.

The thing that's worked the best? I've made the switch to natural everything around my face. I started using Twisted Sisters Skin Nutrition . The Cream Cleanser and Face Fertilizer and I don't think I will use anything else ever. Instead of stripping the oils from my face, it's actually helping keep them, so my face doesn't have to go into overdrive creating more, this making the problem worse.

Secondly I've switched to natural toothpaste. I'm a half and half person. Meaning I have always used some natural face or body products, but about half have been normal drug store options. After learning a little more about acne face mapping, and that switching to a natural toothpaste can help with acne around the mouth (my main issue) I thought I'd give it a try. I found one on Well.ca along with my next item. Use the coupon code SelfCentered to get $10 off! I got some for my kids too.

Lastly I bought a natural foundation. I've used a few natural makeup products before and didn't seem to make a difference, but I'll keep with my three combo because whatever it is, it's working. Plus, this one I also found on Well.ca and it's made here in Canada! Pure Anada Brand.

So if you're like me with your face still making you crazy over half your life, or maybe looking for more natural options (And some Canadian made too!) Check out some of these new products I'm in love with!
