Plein Air Life Review & Giveaway CLOSED

CLOSED

As you know, I love handmade, pure products. And at Plein Air Life, they pride themselves on finding the best and freshest ingredients. They want to bring the essence of nature into our lives and with that essence provide as many people as possible a means to capture one perfect moment. "Plein air” literally translates as “open air”. Plein air artists paint in the open air and strive to experience the fullness of a single moment and capture the perfect essence of that moment with light and color. Similarly, at Plein Air Life they have a passion to produce handmade products that allow you to capture the essence of a perfect moment. Their palette comes from the best ingredients on earth, and their masterpiece is the serene feeling you have when using their products, confident that they are not only pleasing to the senses, but healthy for your body.

My Take
Plein Air Life sent us their Lavender Rosemary Body Lotion and Clove Lemongrass Lip Balm to try. The Lavender Rosemary Body Lotion smells sooooooo good. It's made with sweet almond oil, mango butter, sunflower seed oil, jojoba seed oil, avocado oil, lavender oil, rosemary oil, and vitamin E. Mango butter is one of their special ingredients that you won't find in many lotions. It gives their lotions a thicker and longer-lasting structure than mass-produced lotions. Jojoba oil is almost identical to the natural oils that healthy skin produces, so it is absorbed much deeper than other oils. Also, there is never any petroleum in any of their products! The lotion isn't greasy, and it is absorbed very quickly. My body feel so soft and nourished after I use this lotion, too.

The Clove Lemongrass Lip Balm has such a pleasant odor with no discernible taste. It's made with palm kernel oil, mango butter, avocado butter, sunflower oil, coconut oil, jojoba oil, castor oil, and vitamin E. The lip balm goes on smoothly and keeps my lips moisturized for hours. They also sell lip blush, which is a gourmet lip balm that adds just a blush of glimmering color to your lips while moisturizing them.

Plein Air Life also sells handmade soap, 3-wick candles, glass candles, travel candles, votive candles, sugar scrubs, body sprays, body balms, and essential oils. There are so many goodies in so many delicious fragrances - I can't even begin to name all of them!

Cost:

The Lavender Rosemary Body Lotion is $14 for 8oz ($$$$$)
The Clove Lemongrass Lip Balm is $3.75 ($$$$$)

Overall: We give Plein Air Life a 9.5/10!
