The search for a solid daily moisturizer that will do its due diligence without leaving you greasy and causing you to break out is a trying one, but a safer bet is to opt for organic and all-natural. Evanhealy's Day Moisturizer is made from hand-pressed Argan and organic Sea Buckthorn oils, which work to wake and refresh your skin while balancing its natural pH. It also hosts a slew of other nourishing ingredients such as rose geranium, carrot seed, vetiver and clary safe as well as botanical extracts such as kelp, horsetail and green tea.
Serums can pack the same moisturizing punch without leaving a heavy layer on your skin that never seems to seap in. This nourishing serum contains an active blend of ingredients that get an A+ for retaining moisture, soothing the skin and keeping collagen synthesis up, such as hyaluronic acid, sodium PCA, squalane, phospholipids and organic rosehip oil. And, true to Whole Foods' focus on quality, it's made without GMOs, gluten, parabens, petroleum, phthalates, silicones, sulfates and the whole shabang of no-nos on their Unacceptable Ingredients List.
An alcohol-free toner that contains the key ingredient used in this type of product for over a century, witch hazel, is hard to come by — let alone one that promises to clean out every pore and nook and cranny on your face. Thayers does just that, while cleansing and soothing so you won't be left with parched and flaky skin that's desperate for immediate moisturizing. It has a nice light rose scent too, that's pleasant, but not overbearing.
Tripled milled the old-fashioned way and long-lasting, this soap is exclusively available in the Whole Body section of Whole Foods.

Try one of their 12 refreshing scents: Blackberry, Almond Milk, Peppermint, Cucumber, Wild Strawberry, Coconut, Lavender, Sunshine, Coconut Green Tea, Coconut Oatmeal, Coconut Papaya Mango, and Coconut Volcano.
Luxuriously long lashes (that last!) are hard to come by, but this pure mineral mascara does the job pretty well. It coats each and every lash, making it thicker and fuller, all without clumping. But those aren't the only qualities that have landed it a hotspot on the shelves of Whole Foods. It's cruelty free, paraben free, fragrance free, gluten free, phthalate free and hypoallergenic. All of this means it's gentle and easy on your eyes.
