Benefits of mixing your own massage oil

[Ad- gifted product] I have back pain. I think it’s a pain most of us can really understand and relate with. When I was young, I was kicked by a horse and have had back pain ever since. One of the best ways to get rid of this back pain is through back massages. Not only do massages feel relaxing and great, but revealing pain is a big part of why I constantly want and enjoy back rubs! If you are a fan of massages, one of the key things to take your massage up to the next level is through using massage oil. I’ve enjoyed a variety of massage oils over time, but found that SOiL has some great options, especially when it comes to mixing your own oil to have the perfect blend for yourself. When it comes to mixing your own massage oil, you need two different oils; a carrier oil and an essential oil.

The positives (and negatives) of a silk pillowcase

[Ad- gifted product] Pillowcases are a necessity in every and all houses. They keep your pillows clean and allow you to easily wash the outside of them, as well as look cute on your bed. Most people purchase cheap cotton pillowcases for their pillows, but there is actually a lot of benefits to purchasing a silk pillowcase, treating yourself to something a bit more luxurious, that will last longer and provide lasting health benefits to the person using them. I’ve now switched to a 22 Momme Mulberry Silk Pillowcase from Calidad Home. Let’s go over some of the positives of this lovely pillow case and some of the not so positives.

Upcircle Face Mask | Review

[Ad- gifted product] It’s a fact that we love face masks. We’ve written about our favourite masks recently as well, but wanted to branch out and find more fantastic masks to review and possibly update the list of our favourites a bit more. I found that I prefer clay or similar masks to sheet masks – and they seem to really last longer as well as feel better on my face. As Dann hadn’t done very many (at all) face masks before, he’s been really enjoying cleaning up his skin and having little pampering sessions. Our newest face mask from Upcircle actually has a pretty interesting concept behind it.

Pretty Suds May 2020 Bath Bomb Box | Review

After my first Pretty Suds monthly bath bomb box, I was pretty excited for the theme of Unicorns vs Mermaids! As always, this box came with five different bath bombs of a variety of sizes and shapes. Last month, all of the bath bombs were clouds, so it was nice to see all of these different designs! The coloring is really beautiful in each bomb as well, with two coming from the Mermaid side and two coming from the Unicorn side, as well as one mystery bomb to even it out.

Pretty Suds Bath Bombs and Wax | Haul

Our household goes through many, many bath bombs. Everyone seems to love the cute shapes, beautiful colors and wonderful smells that bath bombs create. Looking to find some new bath bombs, I found my way to Pretty Suds who boosted beautiful color payoffs and wonderful smells. They have a limited collection of different shapes, but the bath bombs themselves seemed very worth taking a look at! At the time of purchasing, they had a special spring box that could also contain a gold egg and a code for a new, free bath bomb! We ended up winning the free bath bomb and also picking up a wax melt to go with it (to make shipping more worth it). All of these are handmade in South Yorkshire, which is always a plus.
