Brand Focus: Meow Meow Tweet

Meow Meow Tweet. Meeeooow Meeeeooow Tweet. I just love saying that name, anyone else? It's fun, sassy, and creative, much like the packaging and Founders/Creators (Tara and Jeff). This small batch, American, company has been blowing up, and with good reason. Their products are well thought out and made with nothing but pure love. I've actually already reviewed their Lavender Deodorant Cream. Since then, MMT has kindly sent me a bunch of a samples to try out and one in particular has blown my mind.


MMT sent me a sample of their *Rosemary Lime Soap, *Face + Body Toning Mist, *Cocoa Lip Balm (full size), *Face Oil, *Cocoa Cream, and *Tea Tree Lavender Baking Soda Free Deodorant Cream. Ingredients for each of these products will be listed at the very end of this post.


*Rosemary Lime Soap: This soap is a real treat. I've been using it to wash my hands and absolutely adore the bits of cornmeal that gently exfoliate. The scent is light and fresh, and I love how well it melts makeup off of my hands. Also, I love that they don't use palm oil in their soaps. I got my eye on their Cinnamon Coffee bar and Grapefruit Mint bar.

*Cocoa Cream: This chocolate smelling goodness is super rich and nourishing. It melts on contact with the skin and soaks right in. I love that this contains absolutely no waxes, it's just rich oils and butters. I'm saving it for the polar vortex weather (*cries*)!
Retails for $18 usd/$22 cdn for 2 oz.

*Tea Tree Lavender Baking Soda Free Deodorant Cream: This deodorant doesn't work well for me. I hate the strong tea tree scent and find that I get stinky within a couple of hours. This is not available, it was kindly custom blended for me. However, they do have a baking soda free deodorant that actually does work and IS available. Keep scrolling to read about it :).


*Face + Body Toning Mist in Geranium Basil: Tara had mentioned that this could work well to soothe and deodorize my irritated pits, it did. I also tried it on my face and enjoyed how refreshing it was. Given that the sample is so small, I think it's great to determine scent preference. I'm not a fan of geranium, although it's great for the skin, and wasn't keen on the overall scent of this mist.
Retails for $22 usd/$27 cdn for 112 ml.

*Face Oil: This facial oil is packed with exceptional oils, however, I found the essential oil blend a bit strong. I think it's the vetiver that just takes over and lingers. In the warmer months, it worked amazingly well as a base for my makeup. It provided enough moisture, but was light enough to keep me from feeling or getting greasy during the day. It balanced my skin perfectly. Now that it's colder, this doesn't cut it for my dry skin. I will definitely consider purchasing a full size next summer and recommend giving it a go if you live somewhere warm or have oily skin.
Retails for $25 usd/$30 cdn for 27 ml.

*Cocoa Lip Balm: Cocoa butter based lip balms are some of my absolutely faves, they tend to work so well for my lips and this is no exception. It's rich, moisturizing, delicious, and amazing. My only issue is that cocoa butter tends to melt and solidify with temperature changes (obviously), making the texture a bit rough. Luckily, it hasn't happened with this one yet. This is probably one of my favourite lip balms to date.
Retails for $5 usd/$6.50 cdn for .16 oz.


*Baking Soda Free Deodorant Cream in Grapefruit (mind blown!)I saved the best for last! Spoiler alert, the full size (pictured on the left) was purchased with my own money from Glam Goes Green. Tara sent me a surprise package containing a sample (pictured on the right) of this deodorant. The fresh grapefruit scent is uplifting and instantly intoxicated my nasal passage. For all of you baking soda sensitive people out there, this is the only deodorant you will ever need! It keeps me stink free all damn day, without irritating my pits, AND I can safely perform spa services without worrying about stinking. I'm in love and highly, highly recommend giving it a try!
Full size retails for $13 USD/$15 CDN for 2.4 oz.

All products mentioned, and more, can be purchased through Meow Meow Tweet (including minis), Well.ca, and Glam Goes Green (only carries the deodorant).

  1. Ahh I was hesitant about trying the deo cream because I have a whole load of Schmidts to get through - but the baking soda started to irritate the pits. I'm very interested in the soda free one - and hello, Grapefruit? I'm there. Thanks for the review, I love the look of these products :) x

    1. Totally understandable and once you try this one, you won't want to use any other deo. If it's irritating your pits though, I recommend getting this one OR stick through it OR give them as gifts? Maybe include in a swap? Good luck xo

  2. Meow Meow Tweet has been raved about by so many different fellow green beauty bloggers that I can't believe I haven't tried them out yet! Would love to their cocoa lip balm, face oil, and deodorant.

  3. I had the Baking Soda Free Deodorant in my well.ca cart, but when I didn't check out fast enough, it sold out :( It'll be mine eventually though! I did manage to buy the Grapefruit Mint soap though, and while I haven't used it yet, I can tell you it smells great :)

  5. Did the deodorant stain your clothes, or leave marks? Been looking for a good non-baking soda deodorant.
