Sacred Rose Organic Herbal Tea Reviews

If you read this blog often or even occasionally, then you probably know that herbal tea is one of my favorite things in the whole world (in my long list of favorite things, it can be found right below my dogs and just above tart frozen yogurt). So when Maria from Sacred Rose Tea contacted me about the possibility of reviewing her lovely organic tea, I was all for it. To be honest, I squealed with excitement more than once when I opened my Sacred Rose package to see not one but two beautifully boxed teas...

After loving and subsequently reviewing Alima Pure's Rainforest Collection, I knew I needed to try more Alima Pure products. So when they recently sent me four shades of their brand new organic Nourishing Lipbalm, I was both surprised and delighted. Sometimes I feel like the luckiest girl around!

As promised, below is my review of Karen's Botanicals Perfect Lotion. Ingredients (provided at karensbotanicals.com)- "Distilled water, Calendula extract*, Aloe Vera*, Olive oil*, Coconut Oil*, Vegetable emulsifying wax, Mixed Tocopherols (Non-GMO certified Tocobiol-vitamin E oil), Soy Lecithin*, Rosemary leaf extract. *Denotes certified organic. Use within 6 months of purchase." This product receives a hazard score of 0 on the Cosmetic Safety Database, which is wonderful but not entirely surprising. Some great things about this product: 1. It contains organic ingredients. 2. It’s free of parabens & petrochemicals. 3. It's cruelty-free. 4. It's unscented,...

With my approaching period, I've been feeling not quite myself lately. I've been eating everything in sight without a second thought. My skin and my hair haven't been behaving themselves (My clay and eggs mask had positive but fleeting results), and after walking Clem and Winston every day this week, my feet are sore and actually pretty smelly (It happens to the best of us). One night this week, in an attempt to make myself look and feel less haggard, I made time for a

When I received a sample set of Alima Pure's Rainforest Collection in the mail, I felt both privileged and excited: privileged because it's not every day that I get the chance to try and review something before it's actually available for purchase, and excited about the lovely shades that would soon adorn my eyelids.

Oh, Netti Pots.

I am still sick, and it's the worst. Something I forgot to mention yesterday, though, is a netti pot. As far as I'm concerned, a netti pot is the kind of thing that a sick person should always have within arm's reach (specifically if your nose is stopped up and/or you're suffering from a sore throat). For the past few days, I've been using my cheap plastic netti pot like it's going out of style. All this netti talk reminds me that I didn't actually get the beautiful netti pot that I wanted for Christmas. To top it...

Maybe I'm easy to please, but one of the Christmas gifts that I got most excited about was my Erbaviva Jasmine & Grapefruit Deodorant. I'd been longing for it ever since I tried and loved the Erbaviva Lemon & Sage Organic Deodorant. Ingredients (provided at erbaviva.com)- "Organic grain alcohol. Essential oils: Jasmine, Grapefruit, Ginger, Cedarwood, Cypress, Orange, Sage and Lemon." In addition to the ingredients listed on their website, the bottle lists a few more and classifies them all...
A Somewhat Failed Attempt

The night before last, on a whim (Well, not entirely on a whim. Has anyone seen Kristen Stewart on the cover of the February issue of Vogue? Enough said), I decided that I wanted to lighten my hair...and fast. I didn't want to go out and buy any cheap box dye, and I certainly didn't want to wait until I had enough money to get it done professionally. So what did I do? I scoured the internet for ways to naturally lighten my hair. I found a relevant forum with a sufficient amount of comments, and from there...

Have you ever had that one product that you had to make an exception for? Jonathan Straightening Lotion is mine. It doesn't have stellar ingredients, but my hair is so fabulous after I use it. I'm keeping it in my cabinet until someone gives me a damn good reason to take it out. Ingredients (provided at jonathanproduct.com)- "Water (Aqua), Glycerin, Polyquaternium 11, polyquaternium-12, Amodimethicone, Cetrimonium Chloride, Trideceth-12,Hydroxypropyltrimonium Hydrolyzed Maize (Corn)Starch,Cetyl-Alcohol,Cetearyl-Alcohol,Stearyl-Alcohol,Beheny-Alcohol,Glyceryl-Stearate,PamiticAcid,StearicAcid,Hydroxyethyl Cetearamidopropyldimonium Chloride, Xanthan Gum, Methylisothiazolinone,PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Trideceth-9, Propylene Glycol, Polysorbate-20, Polyquaternium-10, Ilex Paraguariensis Leaf...
