Natural Relief for your Skin from Bétèrre

Many of us seek ways to eat healthier and consume products that are better for us. With such an effort focused on nutrition, remember there exist many external factors which also impact our health, ranging from the air we take in to products we put on our skin. We recently discovered Bétèrre Skin+Care, a new made-in-the-USA brand of skincare products committed to using only the finest ingredients nature has to offer.

The name Bétèrre comes from “Better From The Earth” – and Bétèrre tests every ingredient used in this line for safety and purity. After over three years of development, the company’s potent, botanical formulas demonstrate proven results on every skin type.

Bétèrre was developed by a cancer survivor and two physicians, so the utmost in care has gone into the ingredients. Regulations vary country to country as far as cosmetic ingredients go, so finding a brand we can trust and know will keep consumers safe ranks high on our list of importance. With Bétèrre, we enjoy no artificial fragrances, or silicones that could disrupt toxicity. With all the safety and care that went into developing these products, we felt pleased to discover how well they work at hydrating and moisturizing our skin, with lovely, natural fragrances!

The Deep Nourishing Body Moisture Cream proved our favorite item in this skincare line. This cream hydrates immediately upon application, and feels rich and luxe. It contains a real cornucopia of goodness from the garden, including Shea, Sunflower, Coconut, Jojoba, Olive, Camellia, Bergamot, Aloe, Grapefruit, Slippery Elm, Orange, Gotu Kola, Rosemary, Cornflower, Arnica, Comfrey, Coneflower, Chamomile, and Marigold. To us, it smells like a light ginger soufflé! Perfect for all skin types suffering with dry skin on the body, a little of this lotion goes a long way in hydrating.

Similarly, we love the Deep Moisture Repair for Face. The product helps those of us with dry, damaged, or prematurely aging skin, strengthening with vitamin B5 and other minerals to energize the overall complexion.

The Balancing Face Serum hydrates, relieves and repairs stressed, combination skin. Formulated for skin that needs moisture but may be prone to breakouts, the firming formula contains cucumber and thistle, which really cools the skin (perfect for hot summer nights!). We love that the product won’t clog our pores, especially at certain times of the month.

The Rescue Me Foot Cream feels like a piece of heaven for the feet. A blend of deep, soothing botanicals including menthol and peppermint ease feet after a long day. Combined with ingredients like chamomile, lavender, Vitamin E, peppermint oil and avocado, this product proves a must-have for tired toes, smelling both refreshing and intoxicating. Salve-A-Tion, a balm that can be spread over cracked heels and extremely dry skin proved so easy to apply. Who needs a pedicure when our feet look this good?
