Fresh. Natural. Good - Beesential Natural Body Care Products



I love great body care products.  I'm always interested in new products on the market, as well as certain particular products, such as body washes, hand made soaps and lotions.  Those products, that are all natural and made by hand, are always going to be the ones I will lean towards first.

There are many beauty and body care products today, that have been created by individuals (and some companies), that will only use ingredients that are both beneficial and good for your body; ingredients that are all natural, fresh, toxin and chemical free.  These are the products that I want to use.


Beesential has these awesome body care products that are fresh, natural and good for your body.  They use natural ingredients such as beeswax, honey and other good-for-you ingredients.  These products are Beekeeper made & Beekeeper approved!

This first product, that I've tried, is Beesential's Energizing Cucumber & Green Tea Hand and Body Cream.  First...let me tell ya...this hand lotion smells awesome!  It has the fresh scent of cucumber, but also has this invigorating scent that just makes me happy!  The hand and body cream is thick and creamy and makes my hands and legs feel so soft.  Some of the ingredients that you will find in this lotion are: Olive Oil, Hydrating Beeswax, Honey, Shea Butter, Propolis, Vitamins and Silk Protein.  These ingredients help soften, heal and restore healthy skin.


I found that this lotion absorbs into my skin really well.  It has a fresh scent and a nice smooth feeling, without feeling greasy.  Cucumber is one of my favorite scents in many products that I use!



The next product is Beesential's Grapefruit & Lemongrass Body Wash.  Oh my goodness!  This smells so wonderful!  I love that it comes in a pump bottle, making it easy to dispense, while in the shower.  I love how this body wash also resembles the color, honey!  How appropriate, coming from a company that specializes in bees and beekeeper made products!  


The body wash has a light feeling, that leaves my skin feeling very soft and hydrated, after my shower.  I found that I really didn't have to use any lotion, right after using this body wash.  The smell of grapefruit and lemongrass together, makes this body wash perfect for me!  I have always loved grapefruit scents in candles, lotions, etc.  I have just recently been introduced to Lemongrass and it is becoming one of my favorite scents, as well!  



This body wash will revitalize your senses, moisturize your skin and is great for those with sensitive skin.  The ingredients in Beesential's Grapefruit & Lemongrass Moisturizing Body Wash that will help soften and moisturize your skin include: Aloe, Honey, Virgin Hemp Oil, Vegetable Glycerin, Olive Oil and Coconut Oil.

Both of these products are awesome body care items that I am so happy to use! I am a big fan of natural made products, especially ones that smell and work, wonderfully together.  You can head on over to Beesential's website for these and other body care products.  Don't forget to connect with Beesential!

Aloe Vera Gel Spray with Lemongrass by Silba Body and Skin Care



We've all heard a lot about aloe vera and the wonderful soothing properties it can bring to a burn or sunburn.  Some get the actual gel from the plant itself and then there are gel versions that you can purchase in the store.  But what about a body spray that combines the refreshing and invigorating scent of Lemongrass with aloe vera gel?



Silba Body and Skin Care has this wonderful smelling body spray that consist of both aloe vera gel and Lemongrass.  I've always loved the Lemongrass scent, whether it's in a soap, lotion or body spray.  Silba Body and Skin Care offers this Aloe Vera Gel with Lemongrass Body Spray in a 2 oz. bottle, that combines aloe vera gel, Vitamin E, Distilled Water, Lemongrass oil and Vegetable Glycerin. 

With all these ingredients, it helps to not only soothes the skin, but hydrates it as well.  This spray is great for bug bites, itchiness and even as a bug repellant (I may try this when the mosquitoes come out this summer!)  




A little known fact about aloe vera: 

penetrates and moisturizes deeply into the lower layers of the skin. Its anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory properties can help reduce skin inflammation while its antiseptic properties can help cleanse and remove skin’s impurities. It soothes and calms the skin and gives it a soft and pleasant feeling.

Silba Body and Skin Care has 37 items in their Etsy shop, consisting of: Aloe Vera products, Body Scrubs, Body Butter, Moisturizers, Facial Toners, Face Wash plus a whole lot more.

I also had the pleasure to experience Silba Body and Skin Care's Face Wash and Face Toner.  Both, when combined as a daily routine, leaves your skin soft and refreshed.  

ALOE FACE WASH - LAVENDER & TEA TREE



This face wash is smells SO good and who doesn't love the calming scent of Lavender?  It's gently on the skin, removes dirt and oil and leaves your face hydrated and nourished.  It's a creamy and light lathering cleansing milk that that restores the natural ph balance and protects the skin's moisture barrier. 

I used this last night, mainly to wash off my makeup and every little bit came right off, easily.  It left my face feeling clean and soft. I also finished it off by using a night face oil.


ROSEMARY FACIAL TONER




I love the scent of this Rosemary Face Toner.  It is a daily balancing toner that has these key ingredients: Rosemary, Aloe Vera, Willow Bark Extract, Calendula Flower, Licorice Root, Ginger Root, Hibiscus Flower and Goji Berry.  To learn more about each ingredients properties, the benefits and how they work with the skin, go check out Silba Body and Skin Care Etsy Shop.  They have some pretty amazing products that are not only good for your skin, but hand crafted with your skin in mind.

Bergevin Bay Soap Co - Soaps, Mineral Makeup, Lotions, Shampoo, Skin Care and More



Who doesn't love bath, beauty and skin care products?  Especially those uniquely hand crafted with good-for-you ingredients? I love all the soaps, lotions, body creams and beauty products on Etsy.  There seems to be a very wide range of beauty products on Etsy and it make me stop and wonder..."Why would I go anywhere else" when I can shop from the comfort of my own home, on Etsy!

Bergevin Bay Soap Co has 38 different items to choose from.  You will find soaps, lotions, mineral makeup, shampoo, skin care and lip balms...everything you need!  They have some of the most beautifully crafted soaps, that are not only pleasing to the eye, but smell OH SO GOOD!  Some of the items I've tried from Bergevin Bay Soap Co are shown below.


BergevinBaySoapCo Shaving Cream Soap



This shaving cream soap is perfect for us women, who want a close shave, leaving our skin silky and soft.  It worked really well in protecting my skin, while I shaved my legs.  My legs were so smooth afterwards, that I've decided to use this shaving cream soap, instead of my normal regular soap. This would make the perfect gift, if you are seeking a different and unique gift for not only women, but for men as well.


BergevinBaySoapCo Lemon Rosemary Soap



Oh my goodness! This Lemon Rosemary Goats Milk Soap smells so good!  It is beautifully marbled with a light creamy yellow mixed with a dark green.  So beautiful.  It smells really nice and does not leave a dry or sticky residue when using it.  This bar of soap contains moisturizing ingredients: Glycerin, Olive Oil, Coconut Oil, Goats Milk, Sunflower Oil, Palm Oil, Palm Kern Oil, Lye and Fragrance.

The soaps are colored with natural micas and oxides, NOT synthetic dyes.


BergevinBaySoapCo Coffee Scrub Soap



How beautiful is this bar of soap!  I am just in love with all the beautiful marbled colors!  This is the Coffee Scrub Soap and yes...it reminds me of the smell of coffee!  You will find the aroma of freshly brewed coffee in this bar of soap which contains: Coffee, Safflower oil, Olive Oil, Coconut Oil, Palm Oil,Shea Butter, Lye, Coconut Milk, Cocoa Powder and Fragrance.  This has got to be my favorite soap by BergevinBaySoapCo!  It's truly awesome!  AND....did you know that this Coffee Scrub Soap has the added benefit of neutralizing odors from your hands, when cooking?


BergevinBaySoapCo Mineral Bronzer




This gives the new meaning to sun-kissed glow!  This mineral bronzer adheres to your skin for a long lasting coverage.  I actually used this, this morning, as a mineral foundation and it went on so smoothly and it looked as if I had been sunning all day!  I love how it feels, weightless and is not heavy or cakey at all. This bronzer contains: Sericite Mica, zinc oxide, kaolin clay, magnesium stearate, allantoin, iron oxides and mica.





BergevinBaySoapCo Oatmeal Stout Scrub



Yep...it smells like oatmeal and I love it!  This is a scrub soap that contains a full-bodied beer along with oats for a nutrient rich soap that balances and conditions dry and irritated skin, while removing dirt, oils and odor. The beer in this soap has a component that helps maintain a healthy ph level in skin. 

Ingredients in this soap contain: Beer, coconut oil, palm oil, olive oil, sunflower oil, oatmeal, lye, ground oatmeal, sweet almond oil, castor oil and fragrance.  I absolutely love how this leaves my skin feeling and did you know, that the bioactive molecule, that is present in hops, has anti-cancer effects, greater than green tea!


BERGEVINBAYSOAPCO BODY LOTION BAR



This lotion bar is so unique, that it comes in it's own tin container.  The pink grapefruit that I tried is awesome!  I love the scent (I'm a grapefruit scent freak!).  Since this is concentrated, it doesn't take much and a little goes a long way.  This body lotion bar is smooth, easily glides onto your skin, leaving a soft finish.  Ingredients in this lotion bar contains: cocoa butter, coconut oil, olive oil, beeswax, castor oil, stearic acid and fragrance. I love that I can just carry this in my purse, without taking up too much room (hardly any at all!) and can pull it out whenever I need it!  So convenient!

You can find these products and more, by checking out BergevinBaySoapCo on Etsy.  They have wonderful and unique soaps of different scents, lotions and even makeup that you will love.

Soaps N Dreams - Natural, Soaps, Bath, Beauty, Wall Decor & Dream Catchers




Soaps N Dreams really says it all about this Etsy Shop.  There, you will find Natural products such as soaps, bath products, beauty products, wall decor and dream catchers.  Soaps N Dreams has 66 items in their shop and I got to experience some of these wonderful products that this Etsy shop has to offer.

This first two product, shown below, are the Extravagant and Sleep Scented Shimmer Premium Body Lotions. Both smell totally awesome, but I would have to say that the Extravagant is my favorite of the two.  It smells heavenly!  Both lotions have this shimmering sparkle when you apply it and it leaves your skin so soft!  They are a non-greasy lotion, that absorbs into your skin, leaving your skin moisturized with a fun sparkle!  Great for the evenings or weekend nights out.  



I was surprised, after using this one night, that my skin still felt soft and a little moisturized.  That is exactly what I'm looking for in a body lotion!  This is not a lotion that will absorb and then hours later, you have to apply.  If you have sensitive skin, Soaps N Dreams offers this lotion in an unscented version.



Available Flavors:

     *EXTRAVAGANT: Rose & Peony
     *FRESH:             Sweet Orange Peppermint
     *LOVELY:            Japanese Cherry Blossom
     *SIMPLE:            Unscented

     *SLEEP:              Lavender Vanilla

The next two products are bar soaps.  The two fragrances, shown here, are the Fresh and Cheerful.  I love the scent of both of these and the Fresh really does have this fresh scent to it.  My favorite is the Cheerful.  It's so uplifting, inviting and I couldn't stop smelling this!  



Each soap came in this adorable burlap bag, wrapped in a pink ribbon.  Fresh Soap has a sweet citrus aroma of ripe oranges with a cool minty kick.  It wakes up all your senses, has a gold shimmer and will leave your skin feeling rejuvenated, to kick start your day!  This bar has the option to include an exfoliation, which is granulated orange peel, suspended throughout the bar.

Cheerful soap has this therapeutic property that should help with stomach upsets, which is made with a honey base.  It's sweet and refreshing and has become my favorite of the two.  There is a combo of honey and Chamomile and can be made with or without the orange peel exfoliation.  Each bar is a 5.25 oz bar.  The soaps you see above, that I am holding, is just a sample of what the actual soap bars are.



Cheerful Soap
   



Fresh Soap


The last product, shown below, is the Simple Bar Soap, available unscented. It is a cream to an off-white bar that has silky moisturizing properties that leaves your skin, happy and healthy.  Simple is made using pure olive oil, coconut oil and palm oil, which all help nourish your skin.  The unscented version is excellent for those with sensitive skin.






You can find these, and other wonderful products, by visiting Soaps N Dreams at the links below. Kristin Kirkland is the shop owner of Soap N Dreams so drop in with any questions you may have.

Shimmering Frankincense & Myrrh Glowing Whipped GLAM BUTTER



Shimmering, glittering and so very smooth and moisturizing.  That is what this GLAM BUTTER is all about!  I love the scent of the frankincense and myrrh in this glam body butter.  Oh....and did I mention, it sparkles!  I love a body butter or lotion that just glistens on your skin, making for a fun day or evening, when wearing a that summer top!




This GLAM BUTTER is available at RedLipsStudio Etsy Shop and it's available in a 2 oz and 4 oz.  This works well on any skin tone and gives you that golden shimmer.  Ingredients that you will find in this handmade GLAM BUTTER are:

     *Purified Water
     *Mineral Oil
     *Mica
     *Skin Safe Soft Sparkles
     *Jojoba
     *Seed Oil
     *Coconut Oil
     *Shea Butter
     *Mild Preservatives (less than 1%)



When I first applied this to my skin, I was amazed at just how much sparkle was in it!  I actually awwed over it!  The GLAM BUTTER felt so silky and smooth to my skin and I couldn't stop smelling it...I just love the scent!  As you can see in the video, it really left my skin glittery, but this photo really doesn't do it justice.  You should really see it out in the sun!




A little info about the scents, that are in this GLAM BUTTER;


Frankincense: has natural healing properties for your skin.  
Myrrh: Powerful antioxidant, making it protective against aging skin.

Both are uplifting and revitalizing as well as essential oils, that have a class of compounds that have a direct effect on the seat of our emotions. Both are considered luxury items, next to gold.
