If you’re looking for an eco-friendly designer skincare line that delivers on its promise to heal dry, damaged skin then look no further than Personal Alchemy’s new Boutique Body line. What’s unique about Boutique Body is it caters to every skin type by using only the purest ingredients (organic when available), which means its perfect for even the most delicate skin.

Boutique Body is available in a lotion or balm in two scents: Bare for those who prefer fragrance-free, and Citrus for those who prefer a great pick-me-up scent. I was able to test out Boutique Body’s Bare Body Lotion and Citrus Healing Balm. Though I’m not a fragrance-free person unless we’re talking dryer sheets, I was impressed with how well Boutique Body’s Bare Body Lotion healed my super dry hands and knuckles. I would use it before bed and it worked wonders overnight! I loved the citrus smell of the healing balm, which is used as a restorative cream for dry cuticles, elbows, knees and feet. I used it as an extra moisturizer on my knuckles (dang this wintry weather!). Personal Alchemy’s site says this balm can also be used as an inhalant for its regenerative and healing abilities and I’d have to agree. Though I didn’t actually use it as such I did feel rejuvenated after applying it to my hands and smelling the pick-me-up scent.

Along with Boutique Body, Personal Alchemy has an entire collection of all-natural, aromatherapy-induced bath and body products that “promote tranquil balance of the mind, body and spirit.” Based on Ayurveda, which believes a person is naturally drawn to the scent that reveals the energy balance their body is craving, Personal Alchemy’s lotions, balms, oils, and bath salts are available in four scents: Lull-a-bye, Remember, Awaken, and Mystica. Use a simple scent quiz on the website to determine the scent you need to balance your energy. Hey, we could all use a little balance in our lives, especially as part of some great R&R after the holidays!

Because harmony and balance are also vital to the environment, Personal Alchemy uses all-natural ingredients, including organic when possible, 100%-recyclable packaging, and reusable containers. Boutique Body—treat your body and soul to some serious healing after the holidays. (P.S. Check out Sweet Dreamz, their new all-natural baby care line, as well!)—Emily
