| - I've used 3 of their products so far; their Whipped Squalene Face and Eye Mousse, their Mint Mist Coconut Cream Deodorant (version for regular strength) and Mint Mist Clay Silk (for more sensitive skin as it's made without baking soda). I love all of them! I just ordered another deodorant for my boyfriend, a shampoo bar and I also purchased another whipped Squalene cream for my Mom. I'll write about each product separately!
Whipped Squalene Face and Eye Mousse: This face cream is so soft and easily spreads onto your skin without having to use all that much, so even the small jar will last you quite a while. It absorbs quickly leaving your face feeling really soft and moisturized without any greasiness.
Mint Mist Deodorant(regular strength coconut cream version):
I have tried many organic and chemical free brands of deodorants and none of really worked very well for me, however, Chagrin Valley's Mint Mist regular strength coconut cream is really effective! The application might seem foreign (i.e. applying by putting some on your hand and then rubbing onto your underarms) but once you do it a couple of times its just as easy as using a stick. It is soft and goes on smooth and leaves no residue. The scent is just enough to keep me smelling great throughout the day yet isn't at all overpowering. It does a great job keeping me feeling fresh and doesn't require re-applications, however that would be more indivually based, I tend not to sweat tremendously so that might be different for someone else.
Mint Mist Deodorant (Clay Silk for sensitive skin):
This deodorant worked just as effectively for me as the regular strength. I don't have an allergy or sensitivity to baking soda so either one works great. However, if you do have an allergy or sensitivity and need the Clay Silk version of their deodorants then you can feel comfortable ordering the more sensitive strength as it works just as well!
I'd also like to add that the customer service is beyond wonderful at Chagrin Valley. I've received every order I've placed with them on time and packaged perfectly. I also recently ordered another deodorant ( 1 Mint Mist Regular Strength) and by accident something was mixed up and I received a Clay Silk version of the deodorant as opposed to the regular strength that I had wanted. They immediately, without question, said to keep the Clay Silk and sent me not just one but two of the Mint Mist regular strength deodorants with an apology note attached.
This is a great company with really great, health conscious products! The ingredients are exactly what I've been looking for in my search for chemical free living :)
