Review:  I have been using the Yes to Cucumbers and Yes to Tomatoes (for my oily skin) lotions on my clients since I was in school.  At the time I was in school I couldn’t afford “high-end” lotions for practice and I decided to give Yes to Cucumbers a chance.  I fell in love with this product and so did everyone I practiced on.  I still use this lotion and recommend it to my clients.

It has an excellent scent, hydrates amazingly and leaves the skin soft, without looking greasy.  How many times have you left a facial with skin that looks like it could solve the fossil fuels crisis!

It also contains tons of great ingredients and no unnecessary chemicals, which is extremely important to me.  I don’t want to have to run to my cosmetic ingredients dictionary to figure out what I am putting on someone’s skin.
