I discovered the small business Bloom & Roots back in December at a local community shopping event in Toronto. I spoke to the founder, Marcelo and he explained the reasons behind creating the company; 'your skin is your largest organ and it absorbs everything,' he explained. Using a store bought moisturiser may be harmless in the moment but, using multiple personal care products over a lifetime is harmful to your body. He further explained stats about what kinds of health problems are a cause of using personal care products with chemicals.
Marcelo's mission is to develop a range of products that can minimise exposure to chemicals. Bloom & Roots is a handcrafted and natural skincare company based out of Toronto, Canada. Their product line currently consists of:
Lip Balm $4
Cream Deodorant $10
Body Butter $15

I purchased all three products at the local shopping event and I love all of them. First of all, everything smells amazing! My lip balm is almost out becuase I use it every day. I'm going to need to pick up a new one soon! The cream deoderant is the only natural deoderant I have found that actually works for me. It would be easier to have the deoderant in a stick form but, a cream deoderant is applied better with the warmth of your fingertips. And the body butter feels luxurious. However, you only need to apply a little. I have gone overbaord with the body butter once and becasue it is oil and butter based in does take a while to soak in. So dont apply too much, a little goes a long way. Overall, I would repurchase all of their items again!
Remember to support small businesses and shop local!
