Disclosure: I received samples of Circle of Friends products through chicexecs.com in exchange for an honest review. No other compensation was received for this post.
My middle child has had issues with dry skin on her arms and legs and at one point, on her cheeks. I enjoy learning about products to help soothe her skin and that are overall more natural in form. Circle of Friends® has a line called Organics that are specifically formulated for eczema and sensitive skin at any age, from infant to adult.
Circle of Friends® was designed to create a professional hair, bath, and body line for children. They also wanted to introduce them to a world of cultures. Circle of Friends® bottles have a character-or friend-from a different part of the world. This friend lends his or her name to each product and offers a short story on the back.
The story talks about the life of the character in his or her country, punctuated with fascinating facts about where he or she lives and what he or she does for fun. Children can continue their dialogue with their “friends” via our Web site: www.circle-of-friends.com. It features many interactive games and our monthly Kid United Newsletter-full of entertaining and informative tales that show that underneath our appearance and culture, we’re really all the same. Plus our website has plenty of useful tips for parents about our products and their use.
Circle of Friends® Organics features a boy named Makwa (Bear), who lives on an Ojibwe Reservation in Minnesota and it shares a little about his culture on each of the bottles. These products contain natural ingredients noted to soothe the skin, like certified organic aloe vera, calendula, chamomile, and vitamins A and E. They are also free of sulfates, synthetic fragrances, dyes, parabens, petroleum, nuts, wheat, dairy, oat, soy, and other common allergens. When used regularly, Circle of Friends® Oganics may help reduce the occurrence and severity of eczema outbreaks.
There is a starter kit and four products in the Organics line. They are:
- Organics Cooling Spray Lotion
- Organics Gentle Detangler
- Organics Tearless Shampoo and Body Wash
- Organics Calming Cream
Organics Cooling Spray Lotion
This product is light on the skin and white in color. It seem to absorb quickly and is non-greasy, yet moisturizes. It contains vitamins A and E, aloe vera, calendula, chamomile, evening primrose oil, and cooling menthol. This products felt very refreshing on the hot summer days and I think it is the first sprayable lotion I’ve ever seen.

Organics Gentle Detangler
This detangler leaves your hair soft and manageable. It contains aloe vera, calendula, chamomile, and lavender.
$13.00 for 8 fl. oz. bottle
Organics Tearless Shampoo and Body Wash
This tearless shampoo is clear when dispensing from its pump style bottle, but foams up well. It also contains aloe vera, vitamins A and E, calendula, and chamomile.

Organics Calming Cream
This cream comes in a flip top tube. It is non-greasy and has a high level of vitamin A to help strengthen natural water-barrier properties of the skin so it can stay hydrated longer. This product contains the soothing extracts of aloe vera, calendula, chamomile, and vitamin E.
$13.00 for 4 fl. oz. tube
All of the products from the Organics line have a light scent that is refreshing. It originates from the grapefruit essential oil used in them. Circle of Friends® products are tested by stylists and parents – no animal testing. Each year Circle of Organics® donates thousands of products to non-profit organizations that work to improve the health, education, and welfare of children.
