A Rose for your Valentine from Good Earth Beauty the "Rose Beauty Box" [Review & Giveaway]

Valentine's Day is just around the bend or coming faster than a blink of the eye. Yep, if you want to get something a bit different than a heart-shaped box of candy or a few roses that will whither and fade away, a box packed with some beauty goodies might be just the thing.

Good Earth Beauty has a wide selection of boxes from which you can choose (even one for the man in your life if you want to "Valentine" them). I thought the "A Rose Is A Rose Is A Rose" box spoke volumes about the sweetness of Valentine's.  These rose scented products are sheer lovliness and the fragrance is that of a beautiful rose.

The Rose is a Rose is a Rose box is $20 and there is NO SHIPPING charge in USA.

The rose scented samples of hand cream (lotion), shower whip, and roll-on fragrance are sheer loveliness and simply do not overpower the senses. Just a lingering gentleness of scent of pure roses. The full-sized lipstick is a red but not too harsh red. The feel on the lips is pleasant and enriching.

Christmas gifts from Sugar and Spice Gifts and Treats Spa provide comfort and sparkle [Review & Giveaway]

Christmas is just an eye-blink away. A short month filled with activities, color, sounds, joy, anxiety, busyness, cold, music, laughter, good food, sweets, and family. It is a time of gifting and a time of looking at the bank balance to see if there is enough for all those gifts you wish to give to those you care about.

Sugar  and Spice Gifts and Treats has beautifully appointed bath items and here at Christmas time they have pulled out all the stops and created baubles to sparkle and glisten your gifting.

Decide how many and "who" you want to give some little treats to and place an order
for a grand assortment of spa treats for the little ladies and the moms and grandmas on
your list. Then find some cute gift bags, ribbons, and bows and spread the joy!

Looking a little closer, I see a little rubber duckie perched atop a cake of soap and isn't that a sweet little squirrel encased in glycerin gel soap? Bath salts, bath bombs, scrubs....
such fun and pleasantness.

I spy three tree ornament balls with ribbons attached to place on the tree.
Who will find one on the tree, hidden in the boughs, and run to the bath
for a wonderful spa treat?

We "think" and desire chocolate and minty sweets during the holiday season, but we NEED the relaxation of lavendar. Sugar and Spice can meet both of these needs and desires. Get the idea? Also, think of these items as small gifts for co-workers, friends one might wish to give a small treat, etc. There is even a set of shaving items for the man you want to give a gift. And not to forget the kiddies - something cute.

At Sugar and Spice Gifts and Treats, products are handmade, natural and chemical free, come in a wide variety of colours & scents, and custom orders are encouraged!  Find some lovely items by clicking here

The owner of Sugar and spice Gifts and Treats is Canada based and has developed a line of lovely bath products and even a few other items such as laundry needs. She also packages her items beautifully. Bath salts, bath fizzies, and such are in canning jars such as you would put your prize home made jams and jellies. The she decorates these with lovely "jewels" and fabric cutouts on the lids. The effect is charming. Bath Bombs are thoroughly wrapped in a plastic container and then placed in a frou-frou bag with netting and tied with a pretty ribbon. Soaps are wrapped and placed in a lovely bag and have added bling or glitz.

Etsy stores or shops online are primarily owned by people who had small home businesses and who made crafty items to sell. I have been quite impressed by the talents that are fueling this cottage industry. I love the entrepreneurial spirit of these Etsy businesses - many of them the dreams of moms, sisters, aunts, friends. We should support their efforts - especially when they merit it by producing something as lovely as these products.

All Natural m.o.d.Perfume at Good Earth Beauty [Review & Giveaway]

$35.00 USA
Good Earth Beauty

Perfume is such a treat in which to indulge. It makes one feel pretty. It makes one feel luxurious. It completes the toilette.

Perfumes have long been used as refreshing splashes, dabs, and sprays to enhance one's personal allure. A simple definition of perfume is " Perfumes are mixtures of essential oils or organic scent compounds and solvents."

Good Earth Beauty has their own line of perfumes created by Mod Perfumery for the folks at Good Earth Beauty and comprised of natural ingredients such as Organic Olive Squalane, Organic Jojoba Oil, Organic Grapeseed Oil, Natural Orchid Extract, Pure Essential Oils and/or Natural Fragrance Oils.

I tried the Ginger white Tea which has a delightful warm and comforting smell. With top notes of Bergamot, Lemon Peels and Green Daylilies, this fragrance is brought back to its roots with a base of Ginger, Nutmeg and Warm Musk. White floral notes, such as Hyacinth, Freesia and Peony complete the mix. This fragrance is wonderfully unique and gleefully soothes the senses. Mod perfumes are highly concentrated (they contain no diluting agents like alcohol or water)  You only need to use a small amount - it should last throughout the day.  A bottle will most likely last 4- 6 months!

There are a lot of fragrance choices in this line of perfumes at Good Earth Beauty. Gifting perfume at the holiday season has long been a top choice of gift items and usually denotes a high degree of intimacy with the recipient. Perhaps a natural ingredient perfume would be something you would like to gift to someone special in your life or perhaps gift it to yourself because you, alone, know your most desired preferences.

My experience with this product: I am pretty selective in fragrances that I use prefering fragrances such as Trésor from department stores. I found, however, the m.o.d. Perfume White Ginger Tea has a very nice scent that is a gentle presence. I applied one spray to my inner wrist and then rubbed wrists together. And several hours after applying it, I find there is still a hint of fragrance. Nice.

Good Earth Beauty ships free - any amount - to USA addresses. A great option! The Good Earth Beauty is their exclusive line, yet their website has a plethora of products and brands from which you can choose. What a great source for holiday gifting. Check them out - click here.

This is not just "girly" stuff. They have a whole range of products in their gift shop, men's shop, and kid's shop. They also ship internationally! What a great opportunity to help you with your holiday shopping!

Good Earth Beauty Natural Exfoliating Shower Whip [Review & Giveaway]

12 oz Tub

Made by Good Earth Beauty Exclusives

My thoughts: The Good Earth Beauty Exfoliating Shower whip is a gentle scrub that is quite refreshing to use. It is not heavily oily leaving skin greasy feeling. The skin feels soft, nicely moisturized, and gently exfoilated.

I used it and loved it. The fragrance of my product was Coconut Lime which is lightly scented with coconut and lime for a brisk experience.

Often, exfoiliating scrubs are too rough and too heavily "oiled" leaving your skin and your bath or shower too slippery. Not so with Good Earth Beauty's product. It has just the right amount of scrub and moisturizing oils.

And please note, this is a natural product that uses only natural ingredients providing you with a safe product that you can confidently use or gift to another.

About the product: Good Earth Beauty's natural Shower Whip will liven up your shower! This natural shower soap will detoxify and exfoliate your skin leaving you feeling refreshed, clean and moisturized!  For use on face and body! Coconut Lime Scent Description -  Sweet Creamy Coconut mixes with tangy lime - a great unisex scent

Ingredients: 

Organic RAW Shea Butter, Virgin Coconut Oil, Organic Sunflower Oil, Vegetable Stearic Acid, Vegetable Glycerin, Powdered Volcanic Ash, Vitamin E, Grapeseed Oil, Natural fragrance and essential oils.
