Natural Personal Care Products

This little natural remedy and herb shop was borne of my desire to find more natural products for my family...and my love of Amazon's free shipping! You'll find my favorite shampoo, laundry soap, vitamins, bulk herbs, and remedies all right here.

Since our family has been transitioning to using natural personal care products, my medicine cabinet has overgone a slow renovation. Here are some of the products I use and love, as well as ones that come highly recommended by my readers. You’ll find shampoo, deodorant, mouthwash, and lots of great home remedies for your healthy green medicine cabinet!

I’ve divided the natural personal care products into categories: women’s health, supplements and personal care products for expectant Mom’s and baby, my medicine cabinet picks, herbal skin care, and natural hair products.

Most of the products that line the personal care aisle shelves contain less than savory ingredients. See below to find the top three that I avoid and why. We now use natural toothpaste, aluminum free deodorant, and sls free shampoo- all of which you’ll find right here in my favorite medicine cabinet picks.

To learn more about a product, click the link and more info will open up.

Don’t see what you’re looking for? You can also shop through my Amazon affiliate link here and take advantage of the (hundreds of millions of) items in their database. If you’d like to see an item or three added here to my remedy shop, please drop me a note here, and I’ll add it for you!
