Lavido - Inspired By Nature

Hello ladies! In today's post I'll be introducing you to another great all natural and organic brand - Lavido! Those of you who live in Israel might already be familiar with this local brand, but I'm happy to announce that Lavido are going global and their great product are now available also in the United States! I was lucky enough to try out a few products from their American launched range, and I'm glad to share my impressions with you in this post.

My beautiful package of products arrived straight from the Galilee, where the story of Lavido begun.
I was very excited to get my Lavido experience started, and so I rushed to try out these wonderful organic products. Let me just start by saying how beautiful is Lavido's packaging design - So simple and clean, yet beautiful and luxurious. I adore the clean lines and the delicate embossing of the outer packaging, it's just another great reason to gift these product not only to your loved ones but to yourself as well.


Mandarin, Orange & Bergamot
INTOXICATING BODY WASH /
$21

Recommended use: Apply onto loofah or directly onto the body, massage to lather, and rinse off. This wash does not separate and a little goes a long way. Follow with Lavido Aromatic Body Lotion of choice. Avoid the face and eye area.

This wonderful organic body wash gives an aromatic boost of energy and leaves the skin very soft. It foams nicely and just a little bit of product needed, so it definitely goes a long way. 
I've been enjoying this refreshing body wash and it's amazing citrusy aroma for a few weeks now, and I feel like my showers are much more relaxing thanks to it.
Another thing that I really love about this product is it's elegant and slim design that doesn't take too much place at the shower shelves, plus it has an extremely comfortable and smart push bottle cap that makes it fun to use.

Mandarin, Lemon Myrtle & Rosewood Oil
NURTURING HAND CREAM

Recommended use: Massage into hands and cuticles, and allow to absorb. Use regularly for best results.

Another great product from the Body & Soul Series is this great hand cream which has a lovely lemony aroma and a light non-greasy consistency that absorbs quickly into the skin and leaves the hands soft and nourished. I love using it throughout the day and especially at night, when in bed I like to apply more cream to the cuticles as well and massage them for extra hydration. 


Pomegranate Seed, Lemon Myrtle & Mandarin

Made for all skin types / Ideal for mature skin / Dermatologically Tested / 30 ml, 1.01fl.oz

I was very curious to try this facial serum, since it's the first oil serum I've ever tried. 
It's consistency is very thick and oily, well - because it's mostly made of oils (see list above). Because of it's heavy consistency I felt like it might be too heavy for my skin at these warm August days, but I think it would be more suitable for a colder weather and I'm pretty sure it will fight off the dry patches I tend to get in winter. This serum is also great for mature skin and helps to revive and restore the skin, so I'm planning on giving this promising product a go in a couple months and even share it with my mom, so we both can enjoy the great benefits of this facial serum.



Overall I was very pleased with Lavido's products and now I'm curious to try out some other products from their natural skincare range, lucky for me I got a few sample to satisfy my curiosity! 
It looks like Lavido offers a great range of natural and organic products, and I think they just might give a good fight to other well known organic brands like Neal's Yard and Lush, which might get a bit expensive. 
Although Lavido products are made in Israel and available to us local ladies for a while now, I find it pretty exciting that Lavido are now growing and launching their products global, so that you international ladies can enjoy them too!
Be sure to stop by Lavido's site and social media links to find out more about their products.
