The Eden be Natural range is a natural, organic, vegan skincare range free from chemicals, sulphates, parabens, artificial fragrance, alcohol and animal bi-products. The range of products is registered with the Vegan Society, does not contain any animal ingredients and is not tested on animals. This is perfect for me being Vegan and a breastfeeding and expecting Mum. (25 weeks pregnant and breastfeeding a 20 month old).
Unfortunately though, many of the products contain lovely essential oils which are not certain to be safe when pregnant or nursing so I stuck to the most natural items below which are suitable for both mum and baby:
I don't usually use soap on my face and body due to it's drying effect but this didn't have that effect at all and was fine for face washing particularly making skin feel nice and clean but not squeaky clean, rather soft. Was therefore happy to use it on bubs who has sensitive skin. I also use it as a handsoap which is good for my chapped hands. Nice to know there are no nasties in it and that it's safe for bubba. Lasts for absolutely ages!!
When you open the pot, it looks like someone poured a liquid in and it solidified in random waves- very 'natural' looking. Smells gorgeous. If you scrape some out and warm it in your hand then rub it on body and bump it feels extremely moisturising. A little greasy at first but soon sinks in. definitely good for extra dry skin and for the baby bump and any stretch mark areas. Also perfect for dry baby skin.
A little pricey but a little goes a long way and it's worth it to know it is ethical and contains absolutely nothing bad at all and is safe for expecting mums and babies.
The products also arrived in lovely packaging with dried rose buds on top, a lovely touch.
