You guys! I am so excited to bring you these bath bombs. These were a very happy accident as Bob Ross would probably say. I was actually trying to make a chocolate fudge round bath bomb and it was not working out at all. The first time I tried making them, my round bombs were […]

DIY Chocolate Lavender Fizzy Bath Powder
I have this lip balm I bought at the local co-op that is an intriguing flavor. It is chocolate lavender lip balm from Dagoba. At first, I thought this would be a scent I would not enjoy, but oddly enough not only do I enjoy it, but its mellow as well and can be great […]
Yes! You Should Do a Pit Detox- Here’s How
A couple of years ago, I came up with a recipe for Almond Scented Deodorant. When I first tried it, I found I was so smelly. This was because I was not used to detoxing my under arms. With a deodorant, you are merely masking the scent of your body odor. And anti-antiperspirant works […]
DIYs to Make with Activated Charcoal
Activated charcoal is everywhere these days. It used to just be used for detoxing the inside, (its’ actually what they put in your stomach in the ER in cases of poisoning) but now, people are seeing that it can have benefits for detoxing skin and can be used for whole body care. I discovered activated […]
DIY Citrus Soap Jellies
The moment I saw the concept of Lush’s Soap Shower Jelly on social media, I knew I needed some. I never did get a chance to get any because I am not that great at ordering stuff online. I’m still a bit old school in that realm as I prefer to buy certain things in […]
Hemp and Milk Bath Bombs
I wasn’t sure if I could authentically call these bath bombs as they have nothing in them that will fizz. The fizz is something most people expect with bath bombs, after all. However, since they are something round you put in a bath in order to enhance it, I decided the name was still fitting. […]

DIY Peppermint Hot Chocolate Whipped Sugar Scrub Recipe
From the time I was little, hot cocoa has always been one of my favorite winter treats. I remember going ice skating at this rink that was just down the street from us when I lived in Montana that was a favorite winter spot for my family. There are many pictures of both my brother […]
Vanilla Coconut Mint Lip Scrub
One thing that really gets to me about winter (besides the cold, I am not a fan!) is how dry my lips get during this season. My poor daughter gets them so dry that she actually has them cracking! The combination between the wind, the cold and licking them to keep them moist leads to […]
Pumpkin Pie Lip Balm
Since pumpkin is the flavor of the season, and you may be looking for anyway to enjoy it, why not make some pumpkin pie..for your lips? I had a lot of fun making lip balms the last time, but wanted to make one that was more seasonal and I thought of pumpkin pie since Thanksgiving […]
DIY Foaming Charcoal Face Scrub
A couple of popular brands have recently come out with some charcoal facial skin care products. This is because charcoal has long been used to clean anything from teeth to skin for a long time. I wouldn’t be surprised if the best face mask to treat acne had charcoal as one of it’s star […]
Brushing Teeth with Activated Charcoal
