Marcelle BB Cream Golden Glow

Alba Botanica's products are made with 100% vegetarian ingredients. They have NO parabens, phthalates, harmful sulfates and they DO NOT test on animals. I really admire Alba Botanica for these reasons, however, I needed to test some of their products out to see if they would be good enough to add to my everyday skincare/makeup routine. Unfortunately, though the results weren't the worst, I don't think they have enough coverage/potency for my person preference. But it is good to know what low-toxic beauty products are out there!

I also reviewed a couple sample products I received from a Birchbox, which were the Coola Cucumber Sunscreen, made from certified organic extracts, and the Marcelle BB Cream in Golden Glow, which is perfect for sensitive skin and is also oil‑free and fragrance-free. I fell in love with both of these products, so I definitely recommend them!
