Bama Wellness with Jen Campbell

I love how the safe, effective formulas in NYR's iconic blue bottles feel, smell, and work.

Even better, though, is the company's four-decades long legacy.

I'm so excited that the first wave of our gorgeous holiday gift collection is here!

It's time to make a list and check it twice!

I'm posting this and then putting my phone down.

(Thanks to my friend, CR, for sharing.)

What do you know about arnica? 🌼

Arnica is part of the sunflower family and is a perennial herb found in eastern Europe and Siberia and has been used by herbalists and homeopaths for centuries.

NYR's Arnica Salve supports a hard worked body 🌿 and is perfect for a massage post-workout.

My new jar is on it's way, and I can't wait for my cross country-running son to use after his race on Saturday.

Recognition feels great, right? 🧡

I love my Bee Lovely collection inspired gift from one of my leaders--especially the cute mask! 🐝🌼

Look who I spotted on Neal's Yard Remedies's Insta! It's Buxton! 🐶

Of course his name is Buxton, and when you read his name in your head, please don't forget the British accent.

You can check out NYR's original post below, AND if you check the comments below, you'll find one of my pups.

"Here’s Buxton stopping by our Covent Garden Store to brighten your Tuesday. At Neal’s Yard Remedies we LOVE animals. Seeing your furry friends visiting our stores and posing with our products brings us so much joy 🐾
For a chance for your beloved pet to be featured on our feed, tag 💙"

Never have. Never will.

In almost 40 years of crafting remarkable skincare and wellness products . . . just one more reason to LOVE Neal's Yard Remedies.

Don't forget our four day 20% off skincare sale started TODAY. You can learn more via the link I've posted below in the comments.

This is -- hands down -- my favorite facial oil.

🍊 Orange Flower Facial Oil 🍊

It smells and feels amazing! Not only is the Orange Flower Facial Oil an incredibly nourishing and hydrating product for your face (I also rub any excess into my hands or elbows), but the story of how NYR sources the ingredients is one of sustainability and micro-economies for women across the globe makes it an ethical product also.

From Neal's Yard Remedies: "SUSTAINABLE & ETHICALLY SOURCED ORGANIC ORANGE FLOWER 🍊 - NYR's Moroccan neroli – or orange flower - is distilled from the blossom of a single orchard of Seville orange trees growing at the foot of the Atlas Mountains. The blossom is handpicked by a team of 40 local women and petals are dropped onto mats spread under the trees. -
“With water supplied by rainfall from the Atlas Mountains and certified organic practices, so the collectors are not exposed to any toxic pesticides or herbicides, this is a highly sustainable and ethical project. It also provides a much needed source of income in an area of high unemployment.” Susan Curtis, Neal’s Yard Remedies Natural Health Director.

The first day of the autumn season, and it actually feels a little bit like fall here in Alabama today. Yes! 🍁

What's your favorite thing about fall? The changing leaves? Football Saturdays? Are you a pumpkin spice fan? Or a Halloween fiend?

I 🧡 a reprieve from the oppressive humidity and heat.

Hhm. . . how to detangle productivity from self-worth . . .

As a busy mom who works during whatever cracks of time I can find, this really hit home:

"But I know, when I pull back a few layers, that my worth isn’t based on results. . . It’s not based on how quickly I can move or how thoroughly I can wear myself out.

My worth just is — and yours is too."

Maybe you don't have to run as fast as you are. How to detangle productivity and your self-worth. "I'm coming to believe that my worth isn't based on my productivity. My worth is inherent—and yours is too."

Who has swollen, puffy eyes sometimes (or a lot of the time)?

🙋‍♀️

I LOVE this cooling, de-puffing eye gel. It tones and soothes without drying the delicate skin around my eyes.

Organic Beauty and Wellness Week is drawing to a close. . .

Do you have any organic "must-haves" when choosing food, personal care and beauty products, or household staples?

Mine are apples (pink lady and honeycrisp), toothpaste, and body wash.

Can you smell the motivation?

When I used to think about toners, I imagined the harsh and drying products I used in middle school. Sometimes they stung my skin. Does anyone remember SeaBreeze? 😭

As an adult, I've had a better toner education. 🧐 So why use a toner?

Well, toner

- removes excess cleanser residue and detritis from your skin and
pores (resulting in tighter, smaller pores)
- hydrates and protects your skin (reducing harm from environmental stress and contaminants)
- balances your skin's pH (creating a more vibrant appearance)
- prepares your skin for your next steps like serums, treatments, and creams (creating the best return for those impact products)

Do you tone after you clean? Check out my favorite options from NYR Organic in the comments!

🎉Happy Organic Beauty and Wellbeing Week.🎉 is a campaign brought to us by Soil Association to raise awareness of the benefits of organic.

(In observance of Labor Day, the NYR Organic home office in Boston is closed.)

Yes! I just got a sneak peek at the next product specials to hit NYR Organic, and I am so excited to share them with you (and to stock up for myself)!

One of the many things I LOVE about NYR Organic is this beautiful cobalt blue.

I've reused the bottles and jars for everything from bud vases and centerpieces to containers for some of my aromatherapy recipes.

What do you do with your blue bottles?

WE LOVE ROSEHIP🌹!

WHY?

Antioxidant-rich and radiance boosting, it’s a star ingredient in some of NYR Organic's most popular products, like my top five list, one pot wonder, Wild Rose Beauty Balm.

But where does NYR source them? 🌎

NYR's rosehips are sourced sustainably in Svrljig (Sver-lig), Serbia, from a family run who wild harvest and hand pick our rosehips. 🌹

Around 100 local villagers handpick the rosehips during peak harvesting season. For many local families, this work provides invaluable income as most are operating in remote villages where unemployment is extremely high.

Safe, effective ingredients. Sustainably sourced. Used in luxurious formulations. Swoon.

Woot! The dark ages are over! ☀️ There are many good companies out there creating and sharing some awesome skin, body, and wellness products. 🌿 That's awesome! Safe and effective AND accessible. It's about time.

In my mind, though, NYR Organic is still a wee bit special. 🌎 🍃🏅This image gives a glimpse, but it only scratches the surface of the mission, ingredients, and practices that go into Neal's Yard Remedies. 💚 Here's more of our story: https://us.nyrorganic.com/shop/campbell/area/about-the-brand/?fromlinkarea=1
