I recently mentioned in my fall favorites video that I’ve been loving the Daily Face Cream from Lime & Lotus Organics. However, I don’t use it as a daily face cream – and I’ll explain in a minute. I’m a fan of how this product is packaged, and love the all natural ingredients including coconut […] Read more…
Humble Brands kindly sent me their all natural deodorant to try out three weeks ago and I have been using the Essential Lavender one each day. These are currently made in three “scents” – Essential Cedarwood, and Simply Unscented being the other two. These only contain 4-5 ingredients! I love a good simple product. Humble is […] Read more…

The scent of a sweet violet is not like that of a rose or peony, or any other flower that can be smelled across a room. The scent of violets is like a secret and only those who get up close and personal with one of these little purple beauties will come to know it […] Read more…
I don’t think I’d ever even used a cream blush until last year. It just never occurred to me that it was something I needed in my life. But now that I’ve tried them, I would really rather not live without them. There are still many cream blushes I have yet to try, but so […] Read more…
