All-natural Polish skincare products. Which are the best? 

Not being from here, sometimes it’s hard to find products which aren’t available in stores or are a little different than the mass-produced stuff. Honestly if you don’t use the internet or watch TV in the language of the country you live in, you miss out on a lot. You either you have to read blogs in Polish or talk to people. Word-of-mouth was usually my way but now I’m trying to branch out and search for things in google in Polish and read more Polish stuff. Luckily I found a great blog called PiggyPeg, which does reviews of beauty products and helped me find awesome stuff. Here’s what I’ve discovered so far. 

Biolaven. These were the first all-natural products that I tried here in Poland. They are extremely well-priced and the products worked really well for me. I’ve used the micellar water (17 zl), night cream (26 zl), and intimate gel (18 zl), all of which I’d highly recommend. The products have a lovely lavender and grape scent and the price is awesome in terms of organic products. I suppose these are just about the cheapest you could find.

Dla kosmetyki. The cool thing about these products is that you can find them in Rossman so you can pick them up while doing other shopping and you don’t have to order them, meaning no shipping costs. I used the Kuracja regeneracja night cream (27,50zl), which turned out to be amazing. I have dry skin and I needed something super  hydrating, exactly what I needed. So far, so good with Dla.

Make me bio. Next I tried these products and was also quite satisfied with them. The hardest thing was to find an all-natural day cream with SPF (35 zl), which is something I really need because I’m as pale as a ghost. This cream has a very natural scent with no perfume – a big plus. Not only that, the cream comes in a glass container which really makes it seem like a high-shelf product. I also use their rose water (16 zl) as a tonic. I’m not a huge fan of the rose scent but it’s a great product and a good price.

 

Others I’ve heard of but haven’t tried yet:

Sylveco. I know this is the mother company of Biolaven + Vianek but I’ve only used some samples of their products, never a full product for an extended time, so I’m not sure I can really comment on them. Anyway, I like what I’ve tried.

Cztery Szpaki. Handmade soap? Like that idea. This company has soap made of coal which is supposed to detox your body. For sure I’ll order it sometime in the near future.

Resibo. I’ve heard a lot of this company and I think it looks great as all the products are either 95% or 100% organic. The only reason I haven’t tried it is because of the price point. It’s a little more expensive than these other products but worth it I’m sure.

Mokosh. This brand also has a pretty high price point but they come in glass containers and also seem like they’re worth trying. They’ve got a line of flower waters which look amazing.

Comments? Suggestions? What do you use? Does any know any good soaps for people with dry, very sensitive skin? I’ve been looking for something good for a while. Let me know what you think!
