I moisturize my skin religiously. I go through a huge bottle of lotion about every two months because, trust me, in this day and age, with the sun and the Greenhouse Effect and Kim Jong-Il and the economy, sometimes all a girl can do is make sure her skin is hydrated and youthful looking.
It never occurred me to check out a body wash that had natural moisturizers in it, which would save me a couple bills at checkout, not to mention save me the process of lotioning myself up every night.
Nature’s Gate Pomegranate Sunflower Velvet Moisture Body Wash is paraben-free with moisturizers made to hydrate dry skin. You’ve heard of the wonders of pomegranate, right? The antioxidants found in pomegranates work to fight free radicals and prevent any potential damage from them. And sunflower nourishes and replenishes the skin with vital nutrition and vitamins.
Nature's Gate Pomegranate Sunflower Velvet Moisture Body Wash.
Even more impressive is the fact that this body wash is paraben-free. What is paraben? It is a cosmetic preservative found in your everyday products: toothpastes, shampoos, shaving gels, even personal lubricants. Although seemingly harmless, studies have found that parabens are found in high concentrations in breast cancer tumors (though the link to parabens and cancers are still undergoing study).
Whether the studies prove right or wrong, I am not an advocate for beauty at the risk to your health. Why run the risk when there are other affordable products that are substance- and chemical-free? This body wash is a healthy choice for you and your body because of the absence of toxic chemicals, and it’s produced without animal testing or any animal byproducts. Even the bottle is biodegradable.
Take it from this skin-moisturizing addict, you’ll want to have this in your beauty arsenal.
So comment to this post and we’ll pick five winners to try out this amazing product. You got till August 11, 11:59 p.m., and you must have a U.S. addy. Remember — retweet for an additional entry! Good luck!

i love pomegranate! i’d love to try this! :3
SOunds delicious! I would LOOOOOOVE to try this body wash! How does it smell?
I recently picked a pomegranate from a random tree that was hanging over a fence… I took it home, broke it open, then I took one of the seeds and squeezed out the juice and rubbed the juice onto my face, hoping that something magical would happen… and then… well…
I think I should just try this bodywash… ’cause my face just looked like it was bleeding.
ooh, sweet! pomegranate is amazing!
was just thinking about how i needed to get rid of my crocodile skin. sounds like this would help out lots. biodegradable bottle, too!? how cool is that!
Ooooo, and aahhhh. The shower gel I’ve been really liking is Honeycat Cosmetics’ “On The Prowl Peach Brandy Shower Gel.” I like it because it isn’t too sweet a smell, and is very unique, which is why this pomegranate gel sounds faaaabulous, especially since water is very drying on my skin. I would love to try this stuff.
This sounds awesome! I use body wash everyday, but I always forget lotion. Great and easy way for me to hydrate my skin
“How dry I am, how dry I am, nobody knows, how dry I am.” I would love to win this!!
Oooohhhhh~~~ I need this! My skin is no longer “youthful” looking. I used to be known to have baby soft skin!
I’d love to try this shower gel. Thanks for the giveaway!
