i’m a skin care products freak…like i try different things a lot. my staple products so far is zia. 
i’ll try whatever and then when it doesn’t work or i get bored, i go back to zia. i have multiples of their little papaya enzyme mask and citrus night reversal. i love those things! they always seem to make my skin feel nice afterward. i don’t like everything but i liked MOST of what i have tried. you ladies know how it is, you just want to try something else once in a while.
the noah’s naturals didn’t seem to work so well for my skin. after using the cream cleanser for a week straight, my skin got really tight and i started to get dry, itchy patches. 
whenever my skin gets that way with new products, it takes another week of using a really moisturizing cream to repair. you’ll think i have learn my lesson by now right? nope!
now, the thing with zia products is that they are way too expensive!!! just totally out of my price range. i cannot justify spending $37 for a 1 ounce face creme, no matter how much i love that stuff. the pro here is that it lasts a long time. that’s still not going to make me spend that much $$.
my zia cleanser has lasted me months now and it never never never dries me out, even if i use it every day, morning and night.
i sorted gave up hope on finding any of their stuff at reasonable prices, even with scouring ebay here and there. the last two days though, i scored BIG! a seller have the bamboo exfoliant (6.7 oz) for $7.95 and the nourishing creme (1 oz) for $8.95 with free shipping if you buy 3 of each. what did i do? i purchased three of each of course! this will be the first time i try the bamboo exfoliant. i’m actually very very tempted to buy all that’s left! i keep asking myself if i can use them all before they expired and that’s the only thing that’s stopping me. i’ll sleep on this thought for a few more nights and see. i’m just very psyched!! 
if you want just try a few of their products, they have small kits (for oily, combination or dry skin) with 5 sample pieces for $20 at natural stores.
i want to share some of my absolute favorite zia products of ALL time (keep in mind that i have normal to dry skin), and not in any order:
moisturizing cleanser with soybean
