Hello, Beautiful! Thanks for joining us at the Intersection of Skincare & Soulcare — Wellness

It has always been my intention to grow my little business so that I could help other women by giving back. This is the first year I have achieved enough of my goals to make this happen. I chose Gratitude Soap as the product that would help me to give back to my community this year. This soap allows me to use the ends of my soap bars (that might otherwise be wasted) to create colorful balls of soap that decorate a brand new product: Gratitude Soap. It is lemon-scented and luxurious, but it's also just ....fun, creamy lathery --...

I use Vitamin E in nearly every skincare product I make. It is simply a staple in my creams, balms and solid lotion. Today, I decided to share why it is so important to me and why I insist on using it to formulate products for my customers. • If you have ever dealt with scarring, free radicals interfere with the skin's ability to heal.

That was what I used to think about self care. That was before I knew how to take care of myself.  The truth is, I feel a bit sorry for the girl I used to be. I had no idea how to talk to myself, care for myself or value myself in the way I...

When was the last time you took a minute to give yourself a lovely face mask? Perhaps you would rather not remember the gooey green feel of it or the fact that you left half of it stuck to your cheeks and eyebrows when you tried to get the darn thing off. Sound familiar? No wonder you haven't used one since! Don't worry. We're going to change that today. If you experienced anything like I described above, you'll know why I designed a powder clay mask with only four ingredients that you can mix with any liquid for the perfect...
