Black Willow Soaps, Salts and Candles ~ Review and Giveaway

When you come visit me (and you all really should) you will open my door and the first thing you will say is.. what is that yummy smell?  Well, I am so blessed to always have boxes arriving from amazing companies that keep my home smelling wonderful.  It might be a tart melt, or candle coming from the kitchen, or a soap coming from the mud bath, or products actually on me that smell good.

This past month my house has been smelling great thanks to Black Willow Soaps, Salts and Candles. 

I was so excited when my box arrived and I dove into it pulling out all these wonderful smelling products.
My box contained~

a bar of Eucalyptus Spearmint scented Avocado Cucumber Soap with Fresh Mint Leaves.
This is by far my favorite thing from Black Willow Soaps.  Love the smell, the lather, the way my hands feel and the way my whole mud bath smells after I or someone else uses it.  Plus, it is just pretty!  LOL!

An Apple Pie Cinnamon Swirl Cream Candle.
The smell on this is so yummy..makes your mouth water!

Monkey Farts scented bath salts.   I love the name, and they smelled really good as did my skin after my bath.

Cucumber Melon scented Creme Candle in a White Tin Bucket.    This bucket candle is so cute, and smelled so fresh and was perfect when I was spring cleaning a couple weeks ago.  I love how fresh smelling a cucumber melon scent is.  And, I kept the tin bucket and put toothpicks in it :)

Cappuccino and Amaretto scented Wax Melts.  All I can say is YUM!!  I loved this scent and my house smelled like a coffee shop all day!

French Vanilla Pear scented Bath Salts ~ Sample size.  I put this in a love gift basket I gave my sister.  I know she loves vanilla and thought she would enjoy them :)

Black Willow Soaps, Salts, & Candles sells handmade, decorative, botanical soaps that are infused with natural herbs to enhance the bathing experience, along with pleasantly aromatic candles and moisturizing bath salts.

KM Fantasy ~ Review & Giveaway

Fulfill her romantic needs with KM Fantasy’s One Night Stand

If you work intensely for an extended amount of time, you know how good it feels to get a massage and have all those knots in your muscles rubbed out.

So when KM Fantasy sent me a massage oil candle to test and review, I was both intrigued and delighted – a massage was now mandatory!

I have used massage oils before, but not in the form of a candle. This little gift had come just in time too. I have been doing and intense workout program for the last eight weeks and I was in great need of having my muscles stroked and kneaded.

It had also been a very busy and stressful few weeks and I needed a little fun and adventure, so I decided my extended weekend trip to the beach would be the perfect opportunity to test this promising candle.

The night we arrived, I opened the candle and inhaled the scent deeply – mmmmm, chocolate mint! I could feel myself relaxing already. Now, to receive a proper massage, you have to set the mood. With lights low, we lit the candle. It smelled great! I was already feeling more relaxed.

Following directions, we let the candle burn for approximately 20 minutes, and then snuffed the wick. My boyfriend poured the oil on my back and began massaging it into the skin. Oh. My. Heaven. This candle is great! The oil was warm and soothing and the aroma of chocolate mint was relaxing. I could feel the knots melting out of my muscles. Afterwards, my skin felt soft and silky smooth. This candle is now going to be my go-to oil treatment for all my massages.

Even though I used this massage oil candle to relieve my muscles, it was actually developed to help couples get in touch with their sensual side, invoking a romantic evening. However you choose to use it, I promise you, you will love it!

These candles come in three scents — Luscious Lemon Soufflé, Arousing Chocolate Mint and Euphoric Coconut. They were developed to help couples surrender to their sensual senses for some frolic fun but no matter how they are used – they are fabulous!

Massage Candles are massage oil in a solid form made from 100% natural ingredients that melt at a low-temperature so the oil never burns hot enough to burn your skin. If you are looking for something new to try, hop on over to KM Fantasy and check out their selection of products.  The One Night Stands retail for $29.99 and the individual massage oil candles retail for $14.99.

Win yourself a One Night Stand boxed set.   Enter below using the Rafflecopter.   Open to US Only ~ 18 and older.   Ends April 20th, 2012 at midnight central time.

Green Beaver Hair & Body Care ~ Review & Giveaway

Certified Organic Hair & Body Care

Biodegradable * Gluten Free * Vegan * Not Tested on Animals * Certified Organic by Ecocert * Does Not Contain Parabens

Nourish your hair and skin with certified organic, wild-crafted goodness straight from Mother Nature.  Green Beaver uses only the finest herbals, plant extracts and natural vitamins.

What wakes me up in the morning and helps me start my day?   Well recently it has been the ever so fresh and energizing smell of Fresh Mint in my hair and on my body!  Oh how I love mint bath and body goodies!!  And Green Beaver has given me another reason to love them.. because their products are organic!  Now what better way to start my day than to do my body good from the outside as well as the inside (my ViSalus Shakes).

I received a full size bottle of each ~ Shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and lotion.. as well as a bunch of the lip shimmers they have.  Love those!!

Revitalizing Shampoo & Conditioner ~ Nourish your hair with wild mint and Labrador tea and experience soft, shiny and re-energized hair.  Organic peppermint oil gently cleanses and lightly conditions the hair, while also minimizing annoying, dry scalp.
That is the blurb from the flyer.. but it is so true.  I can feel the shampoo lightly tingle and the smell is so uplifting.  The conditioner is just perfect for my hair too.  I have thick, course hair and wasn’t sure how it would fair but am very pleased!

Energizing Body Wash & Lotion ~ This gentle wash nourishes and invigorates skin with wild eastern Canadian carrot and organic prairie borage and flax seed emollients. Experience relief from skin irritation and re-energize dull skin with the cooling effects of organic peppermint oil.
Again ~ The blurb from the flyer but also very true.  The body wash is so nice, not over lathering or over powering in smell.. just perfect.   And the lotion.. well I am always scared as I have very sensitive skin especially after I shave my legs.  Always worried about scents in a lotion irritating my legs.  NOPE.. not this!!   Not even a tiny bit did it bother my skin.   SOLD!!

They have 3 different lines to pick from.  Lavender Rosemary, Fresh Mint, and Cranberry Delight.  I think I need to try me all of them!!  LOL !!   And, I think I am going to have to order a few other goodies to try. They have a Tea Tree Deodorant I think is on my next shopping list!   Must check it out.

The Lip Shimmers are such a nice extra goodie!  Perfect size to slip into a pocket, or tuck in your purse.  They leave my lips feeling soft, and moist.  They have the perfect amount of color and shimmer.  Plus, they smell and taste good :)

Green Beaver is carried by Flora Health.   They carry many healthy products.  Check them out.
