MOON Organics

**No affiliate links in this post**

One of the benefits of local farmers markets is learning of local micro-businesses offering excellent products. It was at the East Lake Farmers Market several years ago that I found Susan Gonzalez' booth and was introduced to some of her excellent products. "M.O.O.N" in MOON Organics stands for "Made Only Of Natural" ingredients. Susan is a nurse and breast cancer survivor. 

The main product I use is her face wash "Fresh Start". It's a cream, so there is no lather - if that's important to you than this product is not for you. But it leaves my skin clean without being drying and has a refreshing lavender scent.

She also has a lip balm, "Kiss Softly", that I have also used and enjoy. It does indeed keep your lips soft enough for kissing!

Her hand cream is called "Your Softer Side" - it has a lemon/lavender scent - strong enough to enjoy, but not overbearing. I find this product a bit greasy, so I would likely use this just before going to bed rather than throughout the day. (Anne's Law of Lotions is that immediately upon applying lotion I'll need to get my hands wet for some reason). The texture is fairly firm, and warming it up in your hands before spreading it helps, but a little goes a long way.

There are other products available, I have not used them all - but I encourage you to consider her products - you won't regret it!
