Save this post as a reference for our Eye Cream tips & tricks + kiss those dark circles goodbye ✨⁠

+ Refrigerate your Eye Cream for an early morning pick me up.
+ Apply Eye Cream along the orbital bone. Avoid applying directly onto eyelids to prevent irritation.
+ Use our Revitalizing Eye Cream in the AM to combat puffiness & dark circles.
+ Use our Rooibos Eye Cream for dry and dehydrated or rritated skin.

Father’s Day is right around the corner, sooo we figured now’s a good time to show off our top sellers from the men’s section.

Blackshear is fresh, musky, woodsy, and relaxing, and reminds us of snuggling up by a fire on a cool night surrounded by the forest & stars… which I think we all need to get through this summer heat here in Florida!

One of our FAVORITE seasonal scents is now available! SATSUMA!  🍊

Satsuma is a variety of mandarin oranges, related to tangerines, clementines, and other citrus fruits that was first reported in Japan more than 700 years ago. They are considered the juiciest of the family and have a balanced sweet-yet-tart flavor!  
 
This citrus scent is bright, fresh, and energizing! We carry it in our Coconut Oil Soap + Shampoo/Conditioner bars.

Hi 👋 We are Rafa Natural, a natural + organic skin care store hand-crafting and curating products for skin, bath, body, & home.

You can find our products in small shops all over the east coast since we offer wholesale, custom products, and private labels. We’re really big party people. Ok, that’s a stretch, BUT we do love to bring candles to the party (Yeah, that’s right. We do custom wedding + party favors.) ⁠

Our Surface Spray is your home’s secret germ-fighting and cleaning weapon. Great for cleaning up after cooking, or simply spraying on a rag, and disinfecting surfaces in your home.

Made of naturally derived minerals and therapeutic essential oils. This is 100% safe for you, your home, family, and even our four-legged friends. 🐾

Ever wonder why we apply perfume on our wrists and neck?

These areas, as well as many others, are pulse points. These pulse points are the warmest parts of your body, and emanate heat that activate the molecules in our phthalate-free fragrances, so you can smell like The Beach all day long. 🌊

We often get asked what the difference between a Serum and a Moisturizer is, and the best way to think of it is this: Serums deliver, while Moisturizers protect. Serums are made with a higher concentration of active ingredients that can pe*****te the skin deeper, while Moisturizers are often thicker, and work to fortify the skin’s barrier.

For example, our Antioxidant Serum is rich in Carrot Seed and Avocado Oil, both of which are full of Fatty Acids and Vitamins C & E, that help to prevent signs of premature aging caused by free-ranging radicals and UV damage. We love our Antioxidant Serum for its ability to assist in correcting uneven tone and sun spots. ☀️

Let us know what your favorite Rafa Serum is below!

A face masque is the ultimate gift to encourage slowing down and celebrating self care ✨

Tomorrow is National Vitamin C Day, ☀️ and using our Vitamin C Creme, our most popular moisturizer, is the perfect way to celebrate! This Moisturizer can be used both during your Morning & Evening routine. After cleansing and toning, apply a light layer using an upward motion. In the AM, DON’T forget your sunscreen!

Don’t be (April) fooled 😜, this Dry Shampoo by Goldie is locally made in Lakeland, formulated with all-natural ingredients, and never with aerosols, or benzene.
