Winter Skin

Winter plays havoc with my skin. The cold air outside and the dry, hot heat inside sucks every last bit of moisture from my epidermis. I hate how parched it makes me feel. That is why I’m always on the lookout for healing body creams. And of course if it smells delicious too, well, that is just icing on the cake. L’Occitane Honey Whipped Body Cream does just that. This stuff is 10% shea butter and smells like pure heaven.

L’Occitane Honey Whipped Body Cream

L’Occitane Honey Whipped Body Cream comes in this adorable tin can that reminds me of well crafted, handmade products. The cream is whipped making it light, like a souffle. A small amount goes a long way and it leaves my skin looking soft and well moisturized. My skin has a radiance and suppleness since I started using it. I actually keep the tin next to my computer and use it on my hands all day long. You know how dry a mom’s hands can get after all that washing they get put through.

The scent is subtle and slightly floral, as if the honey were from orange blossoms or jasmine flowers. L’Occitane Honey Whipped Body Cream feels very expensive and left me a little heady. I adore the scent and would love to wear it constantly. At $22.00 for 2.5 oz it is an indulgence I can easily allow. And the adorable container it comes in can easily be used for holding small things around the house after you have lavished the L’Occitane Honey Whipped Body Cream all over yourself.

I was provided with a tin of L’Occitane Honey Whipped Body Cream to do this review. All opinions are my own.

Mrs Meyer’s Clean Day Review

Have you ever found a product that just met all your needs? That is how I feel with Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day products. A few months ago I needed to pick up some countertop cleaner and some all purpose cleaner. While at my favorite local organic market I saw Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day, it was reasonably priced and was available in some great sounding scents so I opted to buy some. I used the countertop spray for everything in the bathroom and couldn’t believe how well it cleaned. Then my usual floor cleaner had run out and I didn’t feel like running to the store so I used the All Purpose Cleaner on the floor and now I won’t go back. But I think the my favorite thing about Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day is that it cuts through grease like nothing I’ve used before.

Mrs Meyer’s Clean Day Review: How Well It Works!

I have a hood over my stove that gets covered with grease from all the cooking we do. I hate to have to clean it because it is so difficult to wash. I always end up using a Mr. Clean Eraser and still it takes a bit of effort. Today I decided to try spraying a little Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day Countertop Spray on the hood and wow, the Mr. Clean Eraser just wiped everything away. It was amazing. And the scent, I used Orange Clove (a seasonal scent), was refreshing and warm.

Mrs Meyer’s Clean Day Review: The Scents

Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day has a new spring scent; Radish. It has a light floral fragrance that reminds me of Easter. Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day are available in other garden-fresh scents like Basil (a personal favorite), Lavender, Lemon Verbena, Geranium and Rhubarb among others. Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day include products that are biodegradable, packaged in recyclable bottles, don’t include ammonia, chlorine bleach, parabens or phosphates and are not tested on animals.

Where to Buy

If you want to purchase Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day you can head over to their website where you can still buy some of their seasonal products at discounted prices (they have Iowa Pine and Orange Clove). I have a personal affinity for their Iowa Pine scented soy candle. Or you can check them out at Target and pick up the Radish scented Liquid Hand Soap or Liquid Dish Soap. I love keeping a beautifully scented hand soap in all our bathrooms. It seems like such a luxury, but is really very simple.  Which Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day is your favorite?
