Earth Based Body is a skincare brand that has carved a niche in the beauty industry with its unique, desert-inspired products. Founded by Nancy and Christina, two women with a shared love for the Arizona desert and natural skincare, the brand offers dry skin solutions deeply rooted in the most hydrating ingredients on earth. These ingredients are native to the Sonoran Desert, a region known for its harsh conditions and resilient flora.
Originally from Chicago, Nancy was drawn to the mythical allure of the desert from an early age. Her frequent visits with family deepened her connection to the desert, eventually leading her to relocate to Arizona. Embracing the Earth Based Body lifestyle, she now lives surrounded by an impressive collection of original artwork gathered from her travels. Christina, a long-time Tucson resident and skincare scientist, found her passion for natural skincare after experiencing adverse reactions to certain chemicals in conventional products.
She turned to the desert's bounty, harnessing the nutrient and moisture-retaining properties of desert ingredients, known for their ability to withstand harsh conditions. Her love for creating effective natural skincare is matched only by her devotion to her family, who inspire her daily. Together, this dynamic duo created Earth Based Body, a brand dedicated to transforming dry skin with the concentrated power of desert-derived ingredients.
Their product range includes luscious body creams, smoothing hand creams, and hydrating beauty balms, all designed to reveal the skin's inner radiance. The brand's mission is not just about providing effective skincare solutions; it's also about celebrating desert-dwellers' resilience and promoting an eco-chic lifestyle. They strive to conserve water and avoid wasteful practices by focusing on concentrated ingredients that serve a purpose, offering more sumptuous product per ounce.
Earth Based Body's commitment to sustainability extends to their packaging as well. They use locally sourced ingredients, sugar cane eco-tubes, and recycled cardboard packaging, reflecting their dedication to reducing their environmental footprint. The brand's journey began with a simple conversation in a Scottsdale spa, but it has since grown into a thriving business that delivers dry skin solutions straight from the Sonoran Desert. In this product review, we will cover our stand-out items available exclusively at Earth Based Body, that we have tried, tested and approved!
Cactus Crush Natural Body Cream
One of their standout products is the Cactus Crush Natural Body Cream. Botanical Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamin B5, and antioxidant-rich Prickly Pear Cactus power this cream. This synergistic blend of desert botanicals targets all the contributing causes of crepe skin to reduce its appearance and help stop its long-term progression immediately.
"The cream is velvety smooth and is now my go-to for after-the-shower full body hydration!" said Jeanel Alvarado, Founder & CEO of RETAILBOSS. "It smells wonderful, and I love all the added benefits that include boosting skin resilience, fighting aging and aiding in elasticity!"
