Everything is USDA Certified Organic, natural, cruelty free and vegan. Made From Earth only uses healthy and chemical free skin care ingredients to create products that are not only safe, but really, really good for your skin.
They were kind enough to send me some little tiny sample jars of a few of their products so I could try them out for myself and write a review. I received Rooibos Tea Face Scrub, Pure Aloe Face Treatment, Rosehip + Hibiscus Facial Serum, Green Tea Toxin Cleanser, Vitamin Enhanced Face Firming Serum and Strawberry Mocha Organic Lip Balm.
Let’s start with the lip balm since I know the word “mocha” totally just caught your attention you little chocolate lover…
Their yummy Strawberry Mocha Lip Balm is packed with powerful organic ingredients including Almond Oil, Beeswax, Shea, Cocoa and Aloe Vera. This yummy lip balm moisturizes, protects and relieves your lips. Beeswax is a hydrating agent that increases the skins essential moisture.
Together, these ingredients are formulated to provide the best anti-oxidant care for your lips. This balm is absolutely delicious… Just imagine strawberries dipped in warm chocolate fondue… Hungry?
I only wish this was actually a tube of lip balm because I’m not a big fan of digging lip balm out with my finger. That’s my only complaint. Since it’s only $2.00 though, it’s definitely worth it. (Perfect Christmas stocking stuffer too!!!)
Out of the 6 products I got to sample, the Vitamin Enhanced Face Firming Serum was my favorite.
The Vitamin Enhanced Face Firming Serum contains all the required anti-oxidant vitamins your face needs to keep it looking young and fresh. It is like putting a multi-vitamin on your face. It contains vitamins A, B, C and E and well as other important botanicals. The most important ingredient in this serum is the DMAE, which is what creates the firming effect. DMAE has become popular in most expensive cosmetic brands over the last 10 years for its ability to pull skincells closer together to create a firming effect. The Vitamin Enhanced Firming Serum is a serum, therefore it should be applied after cleansing and can be worn under makeup.
Those who have dry skin may need to apply an additional moisturizer after the serum has been soaked up by the skin. Those who have normal to oily skin will not need an additional moisturizer, as the botanicals in the serum will be enough to keep your face hydrated throughout the day. I found the later to be true with my skin.
First, I scrubbed my face Rooibos Tea Face Scrub (which was awesome), then I rinsed it off with warm water and tried out the amazing Green Tea Toxin Cleanser. Now personally, I prefer a cleansing gel with a little suds to it, but this cleanser is great at getting makeup off, especially mascara. Gentle, yet surprisingly effective.
After my face dried a bit, I applied a thin layer of the Firming Serum all over my face and neck. It had a light, natural-smelling fragrance and absorbed quickly leaving my skin smooth and moisturized, without feeling greasy at all.
Out of all the products I tried, I definitely recommend the Rooibos Tea Face Scrub, Green Tea Toxin Cleanser and the fabulous Vitamin Enhanced Face Firming Serum.

How about any products for Dads? :-)
Great review. I tried the Made from Earth products and I like them too because they dont have any fragrences in them – and as a man, I really appreciate that.
I will buying some for my wife this Christmas. Thank you for the review and the discount code!
Although some of their cosmetics may be vegan, not all of it is! Vegan products do not have any sort of animal products such as honey or milk. This is a misleading conception so please be careful with what you claim.
if you have oily skin all over your face and back like me, stay away from made from earth…they are super hydrating. i liked their stuff but too hydrating me me
Mariel – It was hydrating for me also – but i needed it cause I was getting wrinkles and it helped!
