Hot Apple Cider Bath Soak

Fall is my favorite time of the year. It’s also prime apple pie and apple cider season around here. Apples are great for your health in general but they are also great for your skin. A great cool weather bath soak that also smells divine uses grated apples, oatmeal and cinnamon. Roughly grate the apple and […]

The Great Pumpkin

 
Most people either love or hate Halloween. I hate it, like a lot. The hubs considers it his high holy day on the other hand. Our storage is currently filled to the brim with rubber rats and spiders, cauldrons and a fog machine. About the only thing I can get down with about the “holiday” […]

Saturday Etsy Fun

 
I told you all about the awesome soaps from Savor a while ago but I checked back today and saw some great things that I am in love with. She has a wonderful Olive Oil soap that is fragrance free, color and paraben free. It’s just nourishing Olive Oil Soap. I’m thinking about trying this […]

Make Your Own Bath Bomb

 
I love bath bombs, especially the ones from LUSH. Actually, truth be told, my husband is the one that really loves them. I take a bath about twice a year despite all my best intentions. I shower though…I don’t stink. Okay I do probably stink since I average about every other day with the showers. […]

More Salt Scrubs

As we approach the end of the summer I feel like I not only need to prep the house, I need to get my feet ready too. I’ve been wearing flip flops bascially every day all day for the last 4-5 months so I have been sloughing and softening my dawgs more often than normal. […]

Lavender is All Around

Head over to TreeHugger today for some info on Pharmacopia’s Lavender Hand Cream. It’s hand cream, it has certified organic ingredients and it’s lavender scented. That’s everything, right? What else could you ask for? I have a love/hate relationship with lavender. It really depends on how strong it is and what mood I’m in. But […]

Sugar Sweet

We’ve had lots of conversations here about hair removal methods. My husband and I have made a pact that if we ever get really rich, we’re going to start tipping hundred dollar bills and we will both get laser hair removal. As such I am always on the look out for fast, EASY methods to do […]

Please Stop Me

I’ve put myself on a diet. A “don’t buy anything beauty related for a while” diet. Then I saw this lovely jar of temptation from Carol’s Daughter. Lemon, ginger, mint…manicure in a jar? Am I being punked? A hand exfoliant so enticing I just might lick it off of my hands before it’s done. Ingredients: […]

Sorta Free Stuff

 
Do you love Origins products? How much do you love them? Or maybe you have never tried their products out even though you have wanted to for a while. Well then head on over to their counter at your local mega mall and listen to a 2 minute spheel and get a four-piece sample set. […]

I’m Totally Not a Stalker, I Swear

Okay so I just told you about those scrummy (that’s my new word) bath salts from Etsy seller, Skin and Tonic. Well as I was looking through their shop I found like a gazillion other things that I am craving. I just like them, not like like them. So maybe I drove past Sacred Fig […]
