From the Heart Nourishing Clay Soap

Here is my spin on a wonderful heart shaped sea salt bar tutorial by Helen of Triage From Home.  I love the way these little cuties turned out!  These limited edition cold processed bars include all of the skin loving butters and oils of my other shea butter soaps with the added benefits of Pink Kaolin Clay, Dead Sea Salt, bergamot, and chamomile.

Pink Kaolin Clay is thought to stimulate circulation and provide gentle exfoliation without drawing oils from the skin.  It is very mild, making it perfect for all skin types, including sensitive skin.  Dead Sea Salt has a high concentration of minerals, such as magnesium, bromine, potassium, and calcium, which are hailed for their superior cleansing and detoxifying properties.  When applied topically, they are also thought to impart nourishing and softening benefits to the skin.  Bergamot is an uplifting essential oil thought to revitalize and reduce tension.  Finally, chamomile has long been used topically to soothe skin irritations and promote regeneration of skin cell tissue.

I have a limited number of these bars that will be available in the next 2 weeks, just in time for Valentine's Day :-)  They weigh in b/w 2.5-3.0 oz. each and will retail for just $3.50 per bar! 

A Valentine Treat for Teacher

Just wanted to share these fun and simple treats that my 4 year old and 5 year old helped me put together for their teachers this Valentine's Day...aren't they cute?

We used simple galvanized pails in Valentine Pink *wink* and added the following goodies to each:

Oversized valentine sucker
Individual packages of Sweet Tarts
Handwritten Valentine to each teacher
Yummy nummy Lemon Drop Lip Smoother from ECN

We used a simply cube of floral foam in the base of each pail to keep the suckers in place and anchor them as the focal points. Then, we layered in recycled pink shred and tucked in our goodies. They passed them out this morning and their teachers adored them! Inexpensive, Simple, & Sweet :)
