Homemade Beauty... Shaving Cream

How about a quick tip for today?

Use baby oil, conditioner, or coconut oil instead of shaving cream.

Basically, all that shaving cream is is foaming soap... It doesn't really have that many benefits for your skin and is just another thing that we have to buy. The whole point of shaving cream is to slick up your skin so you don't get cut by your razor. The three things above do the same thing, but they also moisturize your skin at the same time! I use Baby Oil when we travel because, lets face it, even the travel size shaving creams are huge! And a travel size baby oil is actually pretty small, and you don't need much when you use it. Win Win :)

Fragrant Jewels: Shipment One

So I decided to try a new Subscription Box... Remember when that was all I did?? I'm sure most of you have heard of the company Fragrant Jewels. They create candles, bath bombs, and other fun products, all with rings hidden inside! The first box I received was a present for a friend, and I liked hers so much I decided to try it out as well! I really wanted a candle though, and sadly this box didn't contain one. But regardless, this is the Sweet Retreat collection. The scent is described as "Cool Marine Breeze, Fresh Lavender, and Soothing Chamomile." It is a bit to floral and fragrant to be especially soothing, but it is very nice and bright for spring. The first item in the box were mini bath bombs. I actually prefer this size of bath bombs to the big ones! I was, however, afraid that since they were mini that this product wouldn't come with a ring, which kind of defeats the purpose of Fragrant "Jewels" doesn't it? But no worries

Nadine West: Fourth Shipment

So this wasn't the most successful shipment ever, but I still got one nice piece out of it! And they left me a sweet surprise which I'll tell you about at the end, so I wasn't upset at all! This is actually two items from my shipment! This outfit contains both the shirt and leggings from this month, and they kind of go together! Though I really liked the pattern of the leggings, they are much more like tights. They were totally see through, which made me pretty sad. If they were marketed as tights then I wouldn't be too disappointed, but these were called Leggings. They retailed for $14.49, and I didn't keep them. The shirt fit very well and was extremely comfy. I have been looking for a shirt this color, so I was pretty excited to see it in my bag, even though it is pretty basic. This shirt also retailed for $14.49, and I did elect to keep it! These are the "Beauty Within" earrings, and I'm actually pretty sure I received

Emerald Isle Pics

I have been asked to post some more of my personal pictures of Emerald Isle since the last post I made, I actually haven't had the opportunity to go back since I got my new camera (and laptop) so I don't have any current pictures. I do happen to have some pictures of the beach (it was early spring and early in the morning, so they are kind of bland) that we went to on a school trip that is just a short distance up the island. I hope you like them!! :) I PROMISE I will post some more (better ones) as soon as I can!
