Now that the season for bare limbs is finally around the corner, it’s just the thing you want to catch a whiff of as you hustle out the door.”

You know it’s good stuff when the ingredients are safe enough to eat (coconut oil, beeswax, sunflower and avocado butters, raw honey, et cetera). It smells amazing, feels clean, and comes in the chicest little bottle.”

It’s a really pure formula made from only three ingredients: fair-trade, wild-harvested shea butter; organic coconut oil; and organic olive oil. It sounds so simple, but it is better at moisturizing my legs than the most expensive, sophisticated lotions I’ve tried—you scoop it out and it melts with the heat of your body, leaving the healthiest-looking sheen on your skin. I also live for Susanne Kauffman’s incredible holistic products, including her truly magical body oil.” —Catherine Piercy, Vogue.com Beauty Director

Photo: Courtesy of Vintner’s Daughter7/22“Fran Lebowitz says that great people talk about ideas, average people talk about things, and small people talk about wine. I happen to agree, so it was no surprise that my greatest discovery from a recent trip to Napa Valley was a go-to grooming product rather than a favorite vintage. April Gargiulo introduced me to Vintner’s Daughter Active Botanical Serum at a table overlooking her family’s vineyard and I bought a bottle on the spot. I went home with some Cabernet Sauvignon, too, but it hasn’t lasted quite as long as the Vintner’s Daughter, which has become part of my daily regimen.”

Photo: Courtesy of Liha8/22“I’ve become a bit of a coconut oil freak lately—I cook with it, I moisturize my skin with it, I put truckloads of the stuff in my hair when it’s dry, too. Liha’s Idan Oil is made from a base of coconut but comes with the soft scent of tuberose—the product is made in small batches and infused with petals by hand over the course of several weeks. It’s definitely far more luxurious than the industrial vat of coconut oil on my kitchen shelf right now, plus it literally smells like spring.”

Photo: Courtesy of windsoredwards.com9/22“Lily Aldridge introduced me to Windsor Edwards last spring with a warning that I would get addicted. She was right: I currently have their lip balm by my computer, one in my bag, and another one waiting for me at home on my nightstand. It’s a softer balm, so I use it on my lips, cuticles, and dry spots on my face. I even bring a tube of it with me on long runs and swipe a dab on each cheek to protect my skin from harsh winds.”

Photo: Courtesy of rodales.com10/22“I’ve been into organic mouthwashes and toothpastes lately, since the idea of swishing around with neurotoxins (like fluoride, everyone) has become increasingly unattractive, as studies surface. Plus, their packaging is so much prettier than the drugstore brands—this one from Wild Seed Apothecary is cute enough to leave on your vanity for guests.”

Photo: Courtesy of Joëlle Ciocco11/22“I recently started using Joëlle Ciocco’s natural products and have become a loyal convert. I really love the Cérat Aux Fleurs Composées. It’s a very light oil that I pat onto my face after cleansing for a great all-day moisturizer.”

Butter Elixir’s body oil is made with almond, argan, lavender, and chamomile; rubbed in after a shower, it’s total heaven. And Fire Cider is my new favorite cure-all! You can use it as a hair rinse or a daily tonic.”

One of my best friends’ mom introduced it to me when I was visiting their St. Thomas home (Virgin Islands humidity = a lot of mosquitos), and I use it everywhere I go in the summer months. I also love Le Paume’s bikini wash, which has all-natural ingredients, so you can wash your body and your swimsuit in the shower after every aquatic adventure.”

Photo: Courtesy of Boots21/22“I’ve been stockpiling Boots Botanics’s Rosewater Toning Spritz for a few years now. It’s more refreshing and moisturizing than other face mists I’ve tried, and it’s under $10! I have a bottle at my desk, in my bathroom, plus a few extras on deck . . . The only problem is it doesn’t come in a travel size, so I can’t take it on planes. Boots, please make this happen!”
