If it’s sweet enough to eat, it’s sweet enough to use on your body … right? Check out a few products that fit the bill after the jump.Crimson Clove Shampoo ($15.95) sounds like it’s made for redheads, but it works on all types and colors of hair. Albuquerque-based Tijeras Organic Alchemy, which created the line, claims hair responds to the shampoo "like wildflowers to a soft spring rain." I don’t know if I’d go that far, but it does leave hair incredibly soft and silky after rinsing — so much so that the companion conditioner seems almost unnecessary. It’s sold at Granolas, 5055 W. Ray Road, Chandler, and Nature’s Finest Natural Foods, 16838 E. Parkview Ave., Fountain Hills.Certified-organic line Collective Wellbeing uses a different aromatic spice for its cleanser for combination/oily skin: Cinnamon/Clay Cleansing Clay ($13) absorbs oil, exfoliates and works as an astringent without overdrying skin. Plus it’s free of sulfates and synthetic colors. Find it at Whole Foods and Wild Oats stores.Did you know September is National Honey Month? (Neither did I, until today, when I got a press release about a guy who stacked 2,500 honey bear bottles into one giant bear. Click here to see the photo.) To celebrate, I’m breaking out the Thyme Honey Mask ($35) by Korres Natural Products, which uses Greek thyme honey to revitalize normal to dry skin. The barrier helps skin retain its hydration, and spirulina and quince extracts are added to help with a brighter complexion. Find it at Sephora stores in Chandler and Scottsdale.
