Carri at Episencial was quite generous to send me four of their products to try out and, I must say, after just one use on my DS- I was hooked. This stuff smells soooo good, I almost climbed in the tub with him to use it myself! After the bath in the Sweet Dreams Bubble Bath and a head-to-toe scrub with the Playful Foaming Wash, DS got his post-bath massage with the Better Body Butter. He has nice skin to begin with but after using the Episencial line, I could not stop touching his chubby legs, they were so super smooth and smelled yummy not babyish. DS gets the Protective Face Balm anytime we are headed out into the blazing Georgia sun.
After falling in love with the smells and softness of the Episencial products, I did some more research on them and boy was I impressed! All-natural is just the beginning of a long list of praises that I can sing about this line! This is straight from the company website:

I learned that they like to use Probiotics in their products. That is cool! I've never heard of a skincare company using probiotics!

The store locater says that the closest Target that sells Episencial is 101.6 miles in Oak Lawn, IL.
But maybe they'll start selling it soon at my Target--only about 15 miles!

I learned that they use botanical, sustainably farmed, and certified organic ingredients.
I learned (and love the fact that) they use juice extracts instead of fragrances!!
