Favorite Affordable Natural Shower Products
Saturday, March 11, 2017
Hey Guys! Welcome
Recently I've been trying to steer towards the healthy/ no toxic options when I look for personal care items. And I've settled on a few that I just really love right now at the moment and I'm sure in the near future I will have more to share. I do think body care products are something that should be invested in, but lets face it spending 70 dollars on a body wash or scrub is not in everyone's price range. So If your looking for something a little more reasonable and still very natural, here are some options that I hope work for you.
My first favorite, most wonderful, product I use is my Castile Soap by Dr Bronner's. This product is just pure joy, I pretty much use it all the time for everything, even on my face. I like using the unscented one because I do use it on my face and I don't want any scents on my face, that could maybe irritate it. This Soap comes in so many different scents Lavender, Almond (Another personal Favorite), the list goes on.
The next Product I use frequently is from Trader Joe's and it is the Tea Tree Tingle Body Wash. I also have the shampoo and conditioner that's in the same line. I love the peppermint scent and it leaves your body feeling very tingly and fresh and its totally affordable (Around 3 Dollars) You Can't Beat That
I've tried so many body scrubs in the past and I wasn't always a fan of them. But I have came across a body scrub that I love. I love having smooth, buttery skin and one product I am in love with is this Shea Moisture Hand & Body Scrub and this product adds so much moisture to my skin on top of making is extra smooth. I use it about every other day, but that's my personal preference. It has so many Oils and Shea Butter and let me add the smell is just wonderful. I am a Shea Moisture product fan, so now that they have body scrubs I am in heaven.
Last but definitely not least, I have no idea where I'd be in life without this product. Okay okay I'm exaggerating a little but COCONUT OIL is my Love. This is the best moisturizer ever. I use this day and night and every time I get out the shower. Now please remember coconut oil is an oil so it does solidify if it gets to cold. But in the spring summer and fall months in Arizona its Amazing!
I hope you guys enjoyed this post and let me know of any affordable body care products that you want to share in the comments below. Thanks!!

DIY Peppermint Lip Scrub
Monday, December 26, 2016
Hello There! I know winter time is here and during the winter we tend to be a bit more dry. Our skin needs a little bit more care. But don't worry, today I'm going to show you a simple recipe for peppermint lip scrub. I love using lip scrubs and I never thought to just make my own using the ingredients in my Kitchen. Its really a very simple process and the scrub lasts about a week or 2 depending on how long you want to keep it. This is a great idea for giving a gift or just as a treat for yourself.
What you will need is?
INGREDIENTS
1. Sugar (Raw)
2. Olive Oil or Coconut Oil (or any oil you like)
3. Peppermint Essential Oil
4. Vegetable Glycerine
5. Small Jars
6. Candy Canes (Optional)
7. Food Coloring (Optional)
8. Twine or Jar Labels
I found these really small jars at The Container Store and they come in many different sizes. They are great for DIY Projects or storing small goods.
First you want to gather all of your ingredients and mix them in a small bowl together.
For the next step you are going to finely crush up your candy cane
For an added bonus you can add some pretty food coloring, of any color you like to spice up your scrub.
Now Pack them up and enjoy! I hope you enjoyed this easy fun DIY. It will have your house smelling like peppermint (which is a great thing)
ps. Thank you to my wonderful niece for helping me with this DIY
Until Next Time XOXO

Ways to Relieve Stress & Pamper Yourself
Sunday, December 7, 2014
1. Relaxing Spa Bubble Bath
Bubble Bath:
Essential Oils:
Tea Tree Oil helps with Cleansing the Body of Toxins and Stress.
Lavender Oil keeps the body calm and at a relaxed state.
Peppermint Oil Cools the body off and gives you a nice refreshing feeling. (Great for in the morning to wake you up)
** Essential oils were purchased at sprouts
Fragrance:
Don't forget to smell delicious when you get out the tub! I'm loving this new holiday collection from bath and body works! FROSTED WONDERLAND is Heaven! Since this is winter time go for more moisturizing lotions or body creams that have Shea butter for added moisture in these dry months.
Candles:
I like to start off my day of pampering by lighting candles and setting
the right mood! I like to add some scents when I'm relaxing. My two
favorite candles at the moment are Walnut Brownie by Living Colors (this
candle smells just like a brownie!!) & Bourbon Blondie by Target
(this candle also smells like a brownie) The two candles combined
reminds me of being in a bakery with home made cookies, cakes and
brownies!! Its wonderful.
3.Music
4.DIY Beauty Treatments
Directions:
- Wash your face with a gentle cleanser, then Dry
- Spread an even layer of raw honey on your face (avoiding the eye area)
- Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes
- Then Rinse it off completely
5.Hobby
Hopefully these tips help you and you can go home and have a Nice Pamper Night to relieve some stress!
Until Next Time XOXO<3
Bath & Body Works Holiday Haul
Wednesday, December 3, 2014
So with that being said the first thing I bought was FROSTED WONDERLAND! First lets just say the packaging on this holiday collection is Perfect! It really stands out and with the frosted flakes its so pretty. I love anything cute, and packaging is very important for me. So A+ for Bath & Body works!!
This smell reminds me of the winter time. It's very soft and relaxing! I chose all body creams instead of lotion because it's winter time and I want my skin to be as moisturized as possible.
The next thing I got was TWISTED PEPPERMINT! This is my Favorite smell so far. I love peppermint so much, anything with peppermint in it, I want. This smell is like a sweet peppermint. I makes me feel so alive and happy. Ive been using it at night and I think It helps me sleep better. It mint add a little cold tingle tot the skin, very refreshing. I picked up the body cream and spray.
Then I got the SUGAR PLUM DREAM! body cream. I only wanted the body cream because sometimes, since it's winter, my hands get really dry and I like to have something that smells good but also adds moisture. Now Bath & Body works add Shea butter in there lotion and body cream for 24 hour moisture. With me living in such a dry climate like Arizona, this helps a lot.
Last but not least I picked up a simple body cream, which is the COUNTRY CHIC! I've had the set before but I just wanted to get the body cream because I love the smell. If your looking for something soft and calming, this is the perfect smell. I will forever love this smell.
I hope you enjoyed this holiday haul from bath & body works. Hopefully you will try some of these also. I know what my staples will be this winter season. Direct links to all of these products are in the post.
Until Next Time XOXO<3
