Link to Product Review: Lina Hanson Global Body Serum

  I could use this time to talk about my previous extended absence, but I'll save it for another post. Reviewing Lina Hanson's dream of a serum seems like way more fun anyway, doesn't it? Ingredients (provided at linahanson.com)- rice bran oil, apricot kernel oil, argan oil, yuzu oil, vanilla oil, camellia seed oil, brazil nut oil, pumpkin seed oil, pink grapefruit oil, and avocado oil.

The following three things are making my Monday less...Mondayish: EWG's Skin Deep Cosmetics Database recently got a makeover, and I think it looks fantastic! Not only is it more aesthetically pleasing, but it also seems to be more user friendly. The most helpful change I've noticed is the new data availability rating, which seems to be much less confusing than the previous data gap feature. Click the link to read more about the changes. Whole Foods has just implemented an Ec0-Scale Rating System for household cleaning products. Products will be color-coded according to how safe...

As my product reviews have become more in depth, I've grown accustomed to reviewing a single product at a time. I find it's easier to be thorough this way. However, after trying my two new Made From Earth Lip Balms, I decided to review them together. They're so similar in performance, ingredients and price that it just made sense. Ingredients (provided at madefromearth.com)- Citrus Fresh Lip Balm- ", , , Organic Essential Oils of , ...

Link to Lavanila Laboratories Vanilla Coconut Perfume Review

I put Lavanila Laboratories Vanilla Coconut Perfume on my bigger Christmas list because it seemed like something that I would love. At around $60 a bottle, though, I didn't get my hopes too high. Imagine my surprise when I actually got it, and imagine my disappointment when I didn't care for the scent at all. I should've known better than to ask for a perfume that I'd never even smelled before. Lesson learned. Ingredients (provided at lavanila.com)- “ (from Organic sugar cane),...

Link to Yeah, I drink hot tea in the summertime.

After my recent brush with insanity, I decided to run out and buy some calming teas. I walked into the store intending only to buy Celestial Seasonings Tension Tamer Tea , but I ended up discovering that there is a new vanilla-flavored Sleepytime Tea!!!! I threw it in my shopping cart without a second thought. I've had a cup before bed for the past two nights, and I can safely say that it meets all my expectations. It works just as well as the Sleepytime...
