SIRJJ Organics Review and Giveaway - Plus Coupon Code

I recently had the opportunity to test some products for SIRJJ Organics (pronounced "Surge" the company was named for the founder's children - Samuel, Isaac, Rachel and James Johnson). They advertise their product line as "Balanced Concentrated Skin Nutrition with No Fillers - No Thickeners - No Chemicals - No Parabens - No Carcinogens."

So what makes this company different than others? Yeah, they are green, but many make those claims these days. The real difference is in the fact that these products are not just all natural or organic, they are pure, raw, unprocessed herb powders, and plants leaf juices and organic cold pressed unrefined oils and butters. It doesn't get more real than that! In fact, I think if you were stranded on a dessert island with only your make up bag, you could probably eat this stuff and survive.


About the products I tested:
SIRJJ Organics Green Baby - Shea Butter & Aloe Body Lotion - Gluten Free.
Moisturizes, Protects, and Keeps Babies Skin Soft and Smooth
Contains Organic Aloe Leaf Juice and Organic Cold Pressed Oils and Butters
Concentrated Skin Nutrition

The first thing I noticed about the product was the gentle sweet nutty smell. It was very light and natural. The lotion is thick and creamy, not oily. It blends smoothly and completely into skin and keeps it moisturized for hours without a heavy feeling. I absolutely loved this lotion, not just for my kids but for myself as well. It feels so very different from other products on the market, and the fact that it is totally safe and all natural is quite simply one less thing to worry about when you have kids. Truly, this is my new favorite lotion.

AcaiBerry - Acai Facial Cleansing Cream - 4.0oz - Gluten Free
Gentle Antioxidant Facial Cleanse
Contains Raw Organic Acai Berry Chips - Rich in Antioxidants and Vitamins A&C
Infused with Acerola Cherry - Intensely High in Vitamin C
Safe for Most Skin Types

Let me start off by saying that as I've aged I've developed more skin problems...fabulous right?! I have always been blessed with oily skin and some acne, but now I have dry skin, redness and eczema to boot. Yea me! I have tried so many products, over the counter and from the dermatologist, and nothing seems to treat all of my symptoms. Anything that helps reduce my acne also irritates and dries out my skin. I tried this cleanser and my skin said "ahhhhh." No kidding. It cleanses and soothes. It goes on like a cream but rinses clean and leaves skin feeling soft and moisturized. It is thick and creamy but not oily. I don't even feel like I need a facial lotion after using it. I am so psyched that I found this cleanser. I have only been using it for about two weeks, but I have seen an improvement in my skin and I think it will continue to get better over time. I plan on ordering more products from this line to keep my skin feeling healthy. I am anxious to see how the other products work for me.

Honestly, I really enjoyed using these products and have to say that they are very different from others I have tried. Whatever they do (or don't) put in them seems to be just the right formula for me and my family. And I have struggled with skin problems for several years.



SIRJJ just launched a new website and some new product lines including mineral makeup (yea!) and an apothecary with herbs, teas, spices and supplements. They offer skin nutrition for men, women and children of all skin types. I encourage you to check out their website and products.
