SoapStandle

SoapStandle, the NEW handy and eco-friendly tool that is changing the bar soap industry!

For many people, bar soap is a thing of the past. Most of us have switched over to liquid soap to avoid the soap goo that is left behind when you finish using a bar of soap. But if the goo is eliminated, bar soap becomes a viable option for many people – and that’s where SoapStandle steps in!

Made of recyclable acrylic, SoapStandle sinks its “teeth” into bar soap to create a platform on which the soap is elevated. Since air can circulate 360° around the soap when it is not being used, the soap is able to shed water and dry properly so that that pesky soap goo never develops.

Ergonomically designed as an oval to act as a handle so soap doesn’t slip out of your hand, SoapStandle helps extend the life of bar soap by 30%! SoapStandle comes in a pack of 2, for $8.00.

My Thoughts:

Ironically I discovered SoapStandle right after I had purchased a brand new soap dish for the bathroom. One thing that runs out quickly at home is soap. Whether it is melting, oozing, or falling down the drain, we are constantly buying new bars and liquid soap all the time. That can make up a large bill at the end of the month, as well as produce a lot of waste. 

SoapStandle is not only an innovative product, but one that helps us take into consideration our carbon footprint. It allows soap to last longer, requiring us to purchase less soap and plastic. Use it anywhere soap is needed from the bathroom, shower, kitchen, anywhere! 

If you're looking for a creative and inventive new product to make your life and budget easier, get a SoapStandle today!

My Thoughts

One of my favorite indulgences is specialty soaps. There's something special about a fresh cut piece of soap. They smell no nice, and leave your skin feeling so much cleaner than store bought brands. DirtyBird Energy sells wonderful soaps made with essential oils in scents I love. Plus, they are available at a very reasonable price.

For my review, I received a variety of soaps to try out and I was in love as soon as I opened the package.  They smell so amazing, and I love that they are made with natural ingredients like essential oils.  All of the bars come in generous portions that will last for at least a few weeks.  They leave your skin feeling soft and deep down clean. The scents that I tried included Energy, which has hints of peppermint and is a real eye opener in the morning. The next soap I sampled was Relax which was clearly made with lavender which is a relaxing and fragrant variety. Finally, the Recover is made with eucalyptus which is perfect for days when your sinuses are acting up.   Each one was a nice treat for my skin and a delight for my other senses.  Every bar comes in it's own tin and they each have a cute peace sign stamped into the bars.

 These wonderful soaps would be a great gift any special occasion.  Right now, shipping is free on all club subscriptions. This provides you with six bars each month. To see all DirtyBird has to offer, be sure to visit their website or follow them on their social media.

Restore Your Skin for Summer with Dove

With the unofficial start to summer almost here, you’re probably filled with excitement to finally sport your favorite summer tops, dresses and makeup trends, but is your dry winter skin ready for the big reveal?

The Dove White Beauty Bar, #1 recommended bar by dermatologists, is the perfect way to get your glow back just in time for the season. After a day spent in the sun, the last thing your skin needs is an ordinary or premium soap bar that is drying and irritating. Thankfully, the Dove White Beauty Bar’s signature ¼ moisturizing cream combined with DEFI technology helps hydrate for soft, smooth skin.

Dove Dermatologist, Dr. Mona Gohara, has 3 simple tips to prep for your skin for fun in the sun, all summer long.

•  Make sure to choose a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher for everyday use. Reapply every 2 hours with intense sun exposure. Don't take the tinder approach to sunscreen - in other words don't grab the first one that smells or looks good. Choose one that fits your lifestyle for a longer lasting relationship. 
•  For flip flop ready feet: soak, sand, smear-  soak in warm water mixed with the hydrating cleanser, like the Dove White Beauty Bar, sand down those rough heels with a pumice stone, and smear on your favorite alpha hydroxy moisturizer. (Don't forget your elbows too!) 
•  Use of an antioxidant serum daily leaves the skin looking vibrant, helps prevent aging and simultaneously protects against UV damage. 

My Thoughts 

Dove has been one of my favorite skincare products for as long as I can remember. What makes me love this brand is that their products that really work with my sensitive skin.  With Dove, I know I'm always doing the right thing for by body. I tried out several of the Dove Beauty Bars including:

Dove White

Dove Pink

Unscented Sensitive Skin

Gentle Exfoliating

Each one of these bar has it's own purchase,  but they are all fantastic. When I started using Dove, I noticed a difference after just one shower.  The bars lathers nicely and leaves your skin feeling deep-down clean, but it also leaves your skin so soft it feels like flower petals. You can't ask for better results. They also have a light scent that isn't overpowering.  I'd highly recommend this Dove line to anyone looking for something to help with dry skin. Plus, it's always a great price. You won't have to break the bank with Dove. It's the perfect way to keep your skin healthy and radiant all summer long.

My Thoughts

 There are two things that will almost always win me over when it comes to buying beauty products. I like knowing what goes in to them. I want to be able read the ingredients without a dictionary. All-natural is always best and that is no different when it comes to skincare. The second thing that will always sway me is a company that gives back, especially if they are giving to children. SoapBox has both these categories covered and so much more. Their luscious skincare comes in varieties I love and every time I make a purchase, part of the profits go to an amazing cause. Each package will tell you actually how you're helping a child in need with your purchase, even while you're doing the best  for yourself and the environment. 

One great choice for a gift are their delightful bar soaps. They offer a wide range of scents and each one comes beautifully packaged. The generous bars are long lasting and made with only the best organic ingredients including natural essential oils.  The scents are powerful and invigorating. They lather nicely and leave your skin feeling clean and soft. These soaps are a wonderful way to pamper yourself or someone you love.  As added incentive, for every bar of soap you purchase, the company gives one to a child in need.

Another item I love is their hand soap.  These are come in fun scents like Pomegranate or Vanilla. They get your hands clean, but still leave them soft and moisturized. The bottle are really big, and the design looks nice in the bathroom or the kitchen. Plus, they are free from parabens, and aren't tested on animals. A bar of soap still goes to someone in need with every purchase, just like with their bars.

Health 2 Humanity - All Natural Soap That Does More Than Just Clean

Sodium Lauroyl Isethionate, Stearic Acid, Sodium Tallowate, Lauric Acid, Sodium Stearate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Tetrasodium Edta – these are the ingredients used in mainstream soap brands. When you’re using soap, a product designed to clean and help you, you would expect the ingredients to all be safe.

Health 2 Humanity (H2H) soaps are made of about 8 ingredients, all of which you can pronounce: extra virgin olive oil, palm kernel oil, coconut oil, soybean oil, castor oil, shea butter, water, and African Ribbon Lily. All soaps are 100% natural, vegan, non-GMO, and are $5.99 each.

The best part about H2H’s soaps, aside from the all-natural ingredients, is that all proceeds go to help develop soap businesses in third world countries, providing local communities with hygiene solutions, and cut illness rates by over 25% in sponsored areas. They come in four varieties: Peppermint, Lemon, Lavender, and Unscented.

My Thoughts

There are two things that will almost always win me over when it comes to buying beauty products. I like knowing what goes in to them. I want to be able read the ingredients without a dictionary.

Each bar of soap helps to provide soap to third world countries that are in dire need of such basic necessities.
