Link to Josie Maran Organic Argan Oil Review

Josie Maran 100% Organic Argan Oil is the last of three Josie Maran products I received in the mail for review. It is by far my favorite, so I guess you could say I saved the best for last! Ingredients (provided at josiemarancosmetics.com)- “100% Organic Argania Spinosa (Argan) Kernel Oil.” I couldn't find this specific product on the Cosmetic Safety Database, but I did find Argan Oil which has a very low hazard score of zero. Since argan oil is the solitary ingredient in this product, it seems reasonable to assume that this product would also receive a...

Remember the homemade bath soak that I posted about a little over a week ago? Well.. I was checking out Eco Stiletto's shop and I came across some bath salts and milk baths that reminded me a lot of those. Apparently, Rianna Loving knows what's up. She's selling these adorable concoctions for $28.00 a bottle and undoubtedly making a killing. I say more power to her! Something unrelated: I firmly believe that every woman needs a good sleep bra. I know Christmas just happened, but I almost squealed when I saw this adorable

Link to More Advice for Friends: Natural Moisturizer and Eye Cream

I have some pretty fantastic Christmas presents to tell you guys about, but I thought I'd wait until Tuesday after I go shopping with my mom (which is her Christmas present to me). I'm sure that I'll have even more great things to share after that! Today's post is less about Christmas gifts and more about advice. My friend Kristen recently had a couple of questions for me about moisturizer and eye cream. I decided address most of her questions in a post since they all seemed pretty relatable. Her Problem: She told me that she'd been using Bobbi Brown Hydrating

I've had this bottle of Zum Mist for several months now, and I just realized that I've yet to review it. So here it goes. Ingredients (provided at indigowild.com)- “Purified water, pure essential oils, aloe and vegetable glycerin.” The Cosmetic Safety Database is currently down for some reason,  but there are only four ingredients and I've heard of all of them..so I'm not too worried. Recyclability- There is no indication that this little aluminum bottle can be recycled, but I'll definitely be reusing it to fill it with a homemade room spray. Product Description (also provided at indigowild.com)- “Sandalwood-Citrus mist. A titillating...

I've yet to spend over $5.oo on a tube of lipstick, and I'm okay with that. That's not to say that I was unhappy when I received a free tube of Josie Maran's Argan Oil Lipstick in the mail. I was actually pretty pumped. After wearing it a few times to get a solid idea of what I though about it, I figured I'd share my findings with you guys. Ingredients (provided at cosmeticsdatabase.com)- "White Beeswax, Ozokerite Wax, Isopropyl Myristate, Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil, Olea Europaea (Olive) Oil, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Cream, Argania Spinosa (Argan) Oil, Simmondsia Chinenesis (Jojoba) Oil, Retinyl...

Link to Advice For Friends: Natural, Inexpensive Moisturizer

A friend came to me with a  problem a few days ago, and I figured that someone else had to be having the same problem. So, I decided to post about it! What she said: "Can you recommend a good face moisturizer that's not too expensive? My skin varies from oily to dry, but in the colder months it's pretty consistently dry. I've been using a Bobbi Brown moisturizer. I like it, but I'm looking for something more natural and less expensive." What I said: First, I told her that we actually seem to have similar skin. Mine also gets very dry in the winter,...

Last night I took the most wonderful bath imaginable. Here are the products that made it possible: DayNa Decker Botanika Essence Soak in Ella-I got a free bottle of Essence Soak in the mail recently for the purpose of trying and then reviewing, and I can't even begin to describe how great this stuff smells. It isn't fleeting, either. It's a wonderful, rich, floral, intoxicating, long-lasting scent. I sprinkled about two and a half hands full of this soak into the tub just before getting in. It was probably my favorite part. It makes a fun crackling noise as it hits...

I moisturize at least once a day, so lotion is a pretty important part of my beauty regimen.
