LaVanila Body Butter review

One of my favorite perfumes is LaVanila. When I found out they also made a body butter, I was thrilled! The fabulous thing about LaVanila’s products isn’t just the amazing scent offerings, it is the fact that their products are made from organic ingredients, and not harsh chemicals. Love that!

As a Mother of three, I care a little bit about what I put on my skin, but it is the skin of my children I care A LOT about. This means that I need to be extra careful with their skin since they are young, and what I do to their skin now will last a lifetime.

Summer is upon us, and living in Northern California means my kids will have plenty of outdoor time now, and throughout the summer months. Their skin will take a beating from sun, sticky sunblocks, chlorinated pools, the beach, and more. After they take a bath or shower, I want to be able to nourish their skin, and mine, with something free of harsh chemicals, and made from organic ingredients. I am so happy to be able to use LaVanila Body Butter on their skin!

Not only is the LaVanila Body Butter made from organic ingredients free of harsh chemicals, it actually works to hydrate skin; love that! We all end up with well-nourished skin after using it; especially after a day in the sun or the pool when our skin gets visibly dry.

I am quickly going through my LaVanila Body Butter in fresh vanilla lemon, so when I replace it, I want to try out one of the other scents. They all sound so good! I think vanilla coconut is calling my name to try next; doesn’t it sound perfect for summer!!

You can find LaVanila Body Butter online here. Which scent do you plan to get?


Molton Brown Pink Pepperpod body lotion review

If you have been following my blog for awhile, you may have already figured out how much I love Molton Brown! I use their shampoo, conditioner, hand wash, and now, Molton Brown Pink Pepperpod body lotion!

Living in California, I spend a lot of time in the sun, in the pool, and outside in general. My three kids keep me moving, and as a result, my skin gets dry. There is nothing like pool chemicals, salt water, sun exposure, and more to wreak havoc on skin!

I was thrilled to have the opportunity to try Molton Brown’s body lotion. As a huge fan of the brand, I anticipated loving the body lotion. I was not disappointed!

Molton Brown Pink Pepperpod body lotion turned out to be exactly what my skin needed. It has been helping keep my skin nourished; especially after a day in the sun! I can say goodbye to dry skin! Love that!

The Pink Pepperpod scent is just as fabulous as the body lotion itself. The scent is sweet, spicy and rich; I love it!

Top notes: fiery pink pepper

Middle notes: ginger

Base notes: rich patchouli

Pink Pepperpod can be found in many Molton Brown products including candles, body wash, hand cream, eau de toilette, and in gift sets! The gift sets will be perfect for this upcoming holiday season.

Molton Brown Pink Pepperpod body lotion is a new staple in my beauty collection. I definitely want to try the body lotion in other scents; as well as try out more Pink Pepperpod scented products! I’m in love!

I rate Molton Brown Pink Pepperpod body lotion five out of five stars!

Molton Brown Pink Pepperpod nourishing body lotion can be found online here.
