Shortly after the birth of my first daughter, I started reading about toxic chemicals in soap – even popular baby soaps. I got pretty picky about what I was willing to buy for bath time, which ended up limiting a lot of the fun “bubble bath” type kids soaps. It was kind of disappointing to…

a simple DIY :: orange sugar scrub
I’m pretty much a minimalist when it comes to skin care. Local raw honey to wash my face. Coconut oil to moisturize. Dr. Bronner’s to wash up everything else most of the time. I buy a couple of select things for my hair and one for daytime moisture but still pretty low maintenance. But I’m…
citrus designs :: swiffer wet jet and swiffer duster covers :: review and giveaway
I love my Swiffer Wet Jet. I do NOT love paying for the disposable pads. Not to mention how wasteful it is. And I love my Swiffer long handled duster. Our house has a ceiling fan in *every* room…yes every room. It is the only way I can keep them clean. But again, I just…
clean your teeth naturally with oraMD :: review and giveaway
In the last couple years I have been second guessing just about everything when it comes to skin care, cosmetics, and toiletries.

a simple DIY :: all natural diaper rash cream
My first born used to get the worst teething diaper rashes. I’m talking acid to the skin, red and raw bottom every time a tooth would poke through the skin. It had everything to do with teething, and although doing very bland, almost flu like diet changes while she was teething helped tremendously; she would…
a simple DIY :: organic antibacterial foaming hand soap
An 18 month old PLUS a 3 ½ year old equals lots of hand washing! Between diaper changes with the baby, and potty wiping help with the toddler, we are constantly at the sink! Couple that with their natural affinity toward anything that will create a mess, and hand washing is at least an hourly…

what’s in your tub? #BCWalmartBaby {giveaway}
Bathtime has always been a time that I enjoy with my children. Seems life moves so incredibly fast that we do forget to stop and smell the proverbial roses all around us. During the last couple months, life has been so incredibly busy that these roses have died. Until bathtime. Never fails. Bathtime brings a smile…
