We were recently contacted by Jamie at Soap Dreams to see if we would like to sample her handmade Beer Soaps. Well, of course we would! Natural soaps are something I think we’re all still feeling out, trying to find a good one. All the ingredients in the beer soaps are listed both on the soap packaging and[…]

Canus Goat’s Milk Soap – Review
I wanted to share with you this new bar soap I love for the shower, because it SMELLS SO GOOD! It is the Canus Goat’s Milk Soap with Orchid Oil. I LOVE how it smells! It leaves your skin feeling soft and clean and slightly scented with orchid oil. If there is one thing that I miss from[…]
Alterna Bamboo Style Freestyle Flexible Control Gel – Review
I have been on the hunt to replace my existing hair products and ran across this brand, Alterna, at a local beauty supply store. I decided to just try their hair gel first and sadly I have to report I really did not like this particular product at all. The instant I put it into my wet hair,[…]
Boscia B.B. Cream – Review
I was introduced to Boscia by Shannon, so when I’m looking for new products, I always check their product line to see if they might have what I’m looking for. Recently I’ve been reading a lot about the dangers of chemical sunscreens, even in mainstream magazines (I’m not reading Granola Mom over here!! Not that there’s anything wrong[…]
Boscia Clarifying Detox Mask – Review
After I fell in love with Boscia Clear Complexion Cleanser, I decided to try the Boscia Clarifying Detox Mask. (Again, I bought it from Sephora so I could return it if I wasn’t fully satisfied. Love that!!) As a reminder, Boscia is a preservative-free, botanically-based skincare line. Now let me say, putting on this mask brought me back[…]
Jane Iredale Purepressed Base Mineral Foundation – Review
My cousin Dawn is my go-to girl when it comes to beauty products. She is the one who introduced me to Jane Iredale. She actually bought me my first product from this line for my birthday a couple years ago. Now, 90% of my cosmetics are Jane Iredale. I love this line! Thanks, Dawn!!! I’ve never been a[…]
Thieves Dentarome Ultra Toothpaste – Review
Aside from deodorant and shampoo, I think toothpaste is the next hardest cosmetic to find a natural alternative for! I was talking to my chiropractor about it, and she said I had to try Thieves Dentarome Ultra Toothpaste by Young Living. She’s tried a lot of natural products over the years, and she loves this toothpaste. She actually[…]
Tarte lights, camera, lashes!™ Mascara – Review
Recently, it was time to look for a new mascara. My current one was almost out and I wanted to find one that avoided some of the heavy chemicals that are in many of the brands. Tarte was mentioned to me and I thought I would check it out. I usually go with the mascara that does the[…]
Yes To Carrots Daily Cream Facial Cleanser – Review
Here are the things I’m looking for in a facial cleanser – paraben-free, pthalate-free, sodium laurel/laureth sulfate-free, petro-chemical-free, removes all my makeup, doesn’t dry my skin, and is reasonably priced. Why is this so hard to find?!?! I’d been wanting to try the Yes To Carrots line, so I read some reviews on their cleansers. People seem to[…]
Boscia Clear Complexion Cleanser – Review
My friend Sarah introduced me to Boscia skin care products. I love them! Boscia is a preservative-free, botanically-based skincare line. The products are not cheap but they are worth every penny!!! The product I use daily is the Boscia Clear Complexion Cleanser. I have oily skin so this cleanser was the best choice for me. Previously, I used[…]
