Baby, it’s cold outside! With winter comes dry, flaky, itchy, cracked, uncomfortable, and unattractive skin issues. Show their skin some extra care this winter season with a gift from Canadian skincare company Basd. There all-natural, feel-good products contain plant-based ingredients—like organic aloe vera juice, coconut oil, and shea butter. Basd Body Care products are perfect for individuals like me who have sensitive skin, as it’s plant-based and free of irritating chemicals.
The mini body lotion bundle contains four signature scents – seductive sandalwood, invigorating mint, indulgent crème brûlée, and refreshing citrus grapefruit.
The mini 1 oz body lotions are made with a blend of organic, plant-basd moisturizers that won’t clog your pores and will leave your skin feeling silky-soft and hydrated.
Invigorating mint: Infused with peppermint essential oil, invigorating mint is a refreshing mint scent that helps awaken your senses and stimulate your mind. It is the perfect cream to put on in the morning. Formulated with organic virgin coconut oil and organic shea butter, this cream will leave your skin feeling nourished. I love how smooth it goes on and you can smell the mint.
Basd Seductive Sandalwood: Basd Seductive Sandalwood smells like gentle sweet sandalwood. It refreshes and soothes the skin at the same time. I would categorize the fragrance as unisex. The scent is more masculine than it is feminine and would make a great after shower lotion for him. My husband loves it.
Crème brûlée: The subtly sweet and soothing crème brûlée scent smells like freshly-baked sugar cookies. The scent is not overpowering and lingers on the skin. Like other Basd lotions, the consistency is that of a thicker lotion, and it absorbs quickly. It is Infused with orange essential oils and naturally derived vanilla.
Citrus grapefruit: Infused with citrus and grapefruit essential oils and bursting with a refreshing tropical scent Basd citrus grapefruit lotion has nourished my daughter’s dry hands that she has from over washing. Basd Citrus grapefruit is suitable for all skin types and can help soothe and target acne, stretch marks, and cellulite.
All Basd creams have quite a thick consistency and it should be noted to use sparingly, as a little does go a long way. It doesn’t go on greasy though. It absorbs into the skin well.
Basd Body Wash
Basd Body Wash is formulated to leave skin refreshed and healthy while removing unwanted oils and dirt from your skin. The body wash is creamy and lathers gently. It also smells amazing. The crème Brulee scent is a blend of orange essential oil and naturally derived vanilla, delivering a sweet and soothing scent.
Basd products are beneficial to diabetics
With diabetes, dry skin is a common problem due to dehydration. Add in the winter weather and the conditions for dry skin increase. For a diabetic dry, cracked skin can be a huge health problem. Cracks allow germs to enter and can lead to infections. If one’s blood glucose is high, it feeds the germs and can make infections even worse. A gift of Basd Products is not only pampering, but it is a thoughtful and useful gift for a diabetic!
Mocha beauty powder
Healthy skin starts from within. Start your day with mocha beauty powder. The product contains knotweed, acerola, carrot, kale, cranberry, blueberry, apple, and beet. On its own mixed with water, I have to say that this product tastes terrible. Some have suggested I add it to coffee, but why would I do that to my perfect cup of coffee? I suggest making a morning smoothy with it. I have just started taking the product, so I have noticed any changes to my skin, but we will see. Seeing how the fountain of youth can not be found, maybe this will help.
Final thoughts
Since I suffer from keratosis pilaris, my skin is rougher than most. While my skin tends to improve some in summer it gets worse during the winter months, therefore, I need to keep it moisturized. All Basd lotions leave my skin feeling refreshed. Of all the scents invigorating mint is my favorite. Overall, I think this is a great line of products that work together to nourish dry winter skin. Keep your skin moisturized with a full line of skincare products from Basd. Gifting“Basd” to someone is one way to give the gift of soft skin.
