Perfumes from France, elixirs from Iceland, seaweed spa baths from Sweden (yes, that’s really a thing) are all lovely, I’m sure—but I could do without the expensive price tags. So, I was pleased to discover all the natural beauty products right here in the 45140 (or pretty close ... still in Ohio). Lotions, oils, soaps and elixirs all local, all natural, and a lot less than you’d pay at Whole Foods. Plus, all boast amazing results. Check out my favorite finds—and where to find them.
