Simply Earth Essential Oils Box ~ April

I received my Simply Earth essential oils recipe box and I got my Big Bonus Box! There is so much in here! 

Just so you know, the essentail oils box is a subscription box that you get monthly. Each month is a theme, so you get a chance to learn about new oils. Recipe cards come in the box along with some accessories so you can put together what you like from the recipe cards. The Big Bonus Box comes with your essential oils subscription box every six months. It is filled with all the necessary products and accessories that will be used for the following six months.

For April, I decided to use my wool balls and add the oil to them, and I put them in the dryer. I normally use softener sheets to help with static, but the wool balls actually worked! My clothes did not have static and they smelled really nice. 👕👖👌 

In the Big Bonus Box, I got coconut oil, almond oil, beeswax, and lots of accessories: balm and lotion containers, roll-on balls, 5 ml bottles, spray bottles, extra containers, and inhalers. This is a lot! It's going to be so much fun putting my recipes together! 

You don't have to get the subscription box. You can just get a few things, like essential oils and some roll-on bottles, for instance. But if you do get the box, you can make adjustments to when you want the box. Either way, if you try them out, you will love them like I do. Plus, you will be helping to fight against human trafficking.

Review: Sun & Earth Natural Sunscreen

I received Sun and Earth Natural Sunscreen complimentary to test and review. All opinions are 100% my own.

It is really nice to know that I am not using harsh chemicals on my body with this sunscreen. The ingredients in this sunscreen are natural, non-toxic, and safe for the whole family. It comes in a little container, so it fits perfectly in my little purse. It smells like chocolate...the Mexican hot chocolate kind...my favorite! Yum! Of course, I am not going to eat it. I just wanted to share with you that it smells so good! Back to the sunscreen...

I have been using this natural sunscreen throughout the summer. It does not feel greasy or thick on my skin. I would say it is subtle and soft once applied on my skin. My skin actually feels good and well nourished. It can breathe with this sunscreen! However, it was a little difficult to apply because it was too firm. It is solid rather than soft and creamy; therefore, it takes a little while longer to apply. Apply it a little at a time, and let your fingers warm and adjust the product temperature to help it go on better.

It also helped soothe my dry, chapped hands. We moved to a new home recently, and my hands got chapped and were really dry due to all the packing and moving. They were itchy! Applying this cream on my hands helped my skin almost immediately. I decided to apply the cream on my hands because, based on the research that I have done, the ingredients in this cream have healing and nourishing qualities, which I am always looking out for when searching for something for me and my family. The ingredients in this sunscreen are: Zinc Oxide, Beeswax, Coconut Oil, Olive Oil, Cacao Powder, and Cacao Butter. Coconut oil and Olive oil are some of my favorite ingredients! They work wonders for our bodies, in and out. Zinc is an awesome protector of the skin for burns and rashes. It is a shield barrier! How great is this team, I tell you!

All-in-all, I appreciate that this sunscreen worked well under these hot and sunny conditions, and I am thankful it came in handy just when I needed it most. I will be more than happy to continue using it for my family and me. Check out Sun and Earth for more info on their products!
