Burn Soy Candles this Holiday Season #HolidayGiftGuide

Product was given to me in order to post my honest opinion.

I love burning candles in my home, especially once the weather outside has gotten a little cooler. There is something cozy about burning a candle in the Fall and Winter time. I prefer to use more natural candles made of soy or beeswax and scented with essential oil, over fragrance oils.

Mountain Laurel Naturals has created a line of natural soy candles made with 100% soy and essential oils. No fragrance oils, dyes, or toxins can be found in their products. Soybeans are a natural, renewable source as opposed to candles made of petroleum. Wax candles are made of petroleum, a nonrenewable source, and contain toxic carcinogenic substances. While the candle burns, those toxins are released into the air. By eliminating petroleum and fragrance oils, and burning candles made of soy and essential oils, no toxins will be released.

Natural Vegan Bar Soap from Brosily Bath & Body {Giveaway} Ends 10/22

I was sent product to review in order to give my honest opinion.

For those that have been around awhile, you know how much I love bar soap. It is the only soap I use in my home besides my homemade foaming soap. Now that we have downsized, we only have one bathroom. So in the bathroom, I have my bar soap in the shower and the foaming soap at the sink. I also have bar soap at my kitchen sink. I think bar soap is more moisturizing than liquid soap. I also love the variety of bar soaps available today. I try to only purchase soap made with essential oils, and I love the combinations that people come up with.

Brosily Bath and Body understands the need for natural body care. They carry three lines of soap. The Luxury Vegan Soap Collection is made up of specialty soaps for different skin types. The Moody Bar Soap Collection was created with the intention of promoting positive moods: 1. feeling happy & uplifted 2. feeling calm and relaxed 3. feeling grounded & balanced, 4. feeling rejuvenated & energized, and 5. feeling warm & comforted. The last collection is Beer Soap, which are actually made with beer.

DIY Kids Foaming Handwash

I want to start making more cleaners for my home instead of buying stuff. I was inspired to make a foaming cleanser for my kids. All you need is a foaming pump, Dr. Bronner’s Castile Soap, water and essential oils.

I reused a foaming pump that I had or you can buy one. Fill it up with 1/3 Castile soap, then add essential oil. You can add 10 drops of Tea Tree oil since it is antibacterial. You can also add 10 drops of another oil. Or you can just do about 20 drops of a random essential oil. I would recommend lemon, orange or grapefruit for kids! Then fill the rest of the container up with water.

DIY Kids Foaming Soap

I created mine with tea tree and orange. It smells great and my kids love it. You can adjust the ratios to fit your needs!

Have you ever used Dr. Bronner’s or essential oils to create a soap or cleaning product?

Essential Oils ~ Introduction

I first learned about all the benefits of essential oils from a webinar hosted by Modern Wellness. It was called Medicine Cabinet Makeover and focused on using essential oils instead of OTC meds. Since this webinar in December, I have become a daily user of essential oils. When someone said they used essential oils everyday, I actually didn’t understand what that meant. Now that I am used to them, I actually do use them on a daily basis.
