CONGRATS to the winner of the Skin Free/Blue Ridge Gypsy giveaway: Commenter #24 {ELENA}

skinfree-winnerBack in July, I was given the opportunity to work with Julie Hilton, the owner of Blue Ridge Gypsy Studios which also holds the subsidiary of the Skin Free Skincare line. Her two lines of skin care products provide something for EVERYONE. Skin Free’s products are designed for people who prefer unscented products and for those who suffer from problems like eczema and other skin irritations. Blue Ridge Gypsy offers the same quality, all natural products but with the benefit of lovely scents! When I reviewed her products, Julie was kind and generous enough to also offer a giveaway so that one of my readers could experience the satisfaction of trying out some of her wonderful products as well!

SKINFREEI loved working with Julie so much that I invited her to participate in my Holiday Gift Guide so that one of my readers can – once again – win a gift certificate to shop in her online store! She accepted that invitation and is offering a $30 gift certificate for YOU to shop between Skin Free and Blue Ridge Gypsy…

Product/Company Information

All products distributed by Blue Ridge Gypsy Studio® are designed and formulated by owner and practicing pharmacist, Julie Hilton, who has over 30 years experience in compounding and natural skin care. “I started the Studio in 2000 when my husband and I moved to the Blue Ridge of Virginia. Our friends were calling us “gypsies,” so the name evolved naturally.” Naturally occurring vegetable oils and butters contain indigenous nutrients, antioxidants, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS), and antibacterial agents that petroleum-based oils just don’t have. Natural oils absorb into the skin and do not feel greasy. They also come from replenishable sources, which is a BRGgreat environmental concern. The products created for Blue Ridge Gypsy Studio are formulated to be safe, effective in soothing your skin, and affordable. If you are interested in products with no fragrances or colorants, please shop at www.skinfree.net! Both Skin Free products and our original Blue Ridge Gypsy line use only the finest natural oils and butters in our formulations. Blue Ridge Gypsy products are scented with pure, organic essential oils.

    My favorite is Honeysuckle Butter Creme from Blue Ridge Gypsy Studios. I love the fact that it has some fragrance to it, and still has all the benefits for the skin. I do have eczema, and have to be careful with my lotions. And I love the Honeysuckle scent!

    Tried to “fave” you on Technorati, got an error message below! Sounds like they saved my submission, though.

    Thank you for using Technorati Favorites! Technorati is collecting Favorites information as usual, however not currently displaying them in the site. Your submission was just saved. We are working on an upgraded Favorites system we think you’ll like much better than the previous system. When we roll it out in the near future, all your previous favorite submissions will again be available to you. Thank you for your patience!
