Amazon Rain™ Green

Our Daily Green had the opportunity to review a skin care line from Amazon Rain™, a subsidiary of the Amazon Herb Company founded by "Amazon John" Easterling, husband of musician and actress Olivia Newton-John, who is probably most famous for her role as Sandy in the hit movie musical, Grease.

While Our Daily Green is not necessarily excited by celebrity driven products and endorsements, having personally met Newton-John and seeing the healthy glow of her complexion is quite a personal endorsement for the product and we couldn't wait to review it. The temptation to burst into song and hope for a bad-boy Danny Zuko to appear in a lettermen's sweater was pretty strong. While that didn't happen, we are happy to report that Amazon Rain™  lives up to its billing.

The author with Olivia Newton-John in 2006

Olivia has moved forward from her days portraying a 1950s Rydell High School cheerleader, even if she appears not to have aged. She has received numerous awards and honors in the area of environmentalism, including service as the United Nation's Goodwill Ambassador for the environment. Her sincere commitment to caring for our planet and ourselves speaks volumes.

Amazon Rain™ sent Our Daily Green full sized samples of their skin care essentials to review (FTC disclosure); botanical cleanser, camu c serum, and replenishing moisturizer.

The company uses either organic or wild-crafted ingredients. Wild-crafted means the botanical ingredients are harvested wild in their natural environment, collected by hand in an ecologically-sustainable manner. Either way, they are never treated with pesticides, herbicides or chemical fertilizers.

SAFE (Stroud Award of Freshwater Excellence) Water Award

Portions of the company's profits go directly back to supporting indigenous communities in the Amazon. In fact, the couple recently received a SAFE Water Award for their continuing work in the Peruvian Amazon. Amazon Rain™ also supports The Prince's Rainforests Projects and the Amazon Center for Environmental Education and Research (ACEER). 

After using the products for a full two weeks, we are happy to report a healthy glow from an environmentally responsible product but we're still waiting for Danny Zuko to show. A special thank you to our friends at Amazon Herb and Rain for your commitment to earth friendly living.
