Peace Through Pampering does it again!

"There is nothing more soothing and relaxing than a hot bath, unless you're sitting in a stew of alcohols, polymers and artificial colors. Then you dry off and slather on lotions, usually also full of alcohols etc. And somehow this is supposed to be good for us?! After my daughter got a UTI from using bath salts, I chucked them all and formulated a natural solution.I start with coarse dead sea salts; world renowned for it's high concentration of minerals and healing elements. Solar evaporated atlantic sea salts give the base of the softening properties. Dendritic salts are quick dissolving and help hold the fragrance of the essential oils. Epsom salts are added to help relieve and ease aches and pains. Lavender is one of the most soothing and relaxing scents available. Chamomile flowers add a minor sedative effect. An excellent combination for getting ready for a fantastic night's sleep.This 4 ounce glass jar is sealed and securely wrapped for shipping. There are no chemicals or colors, only natural salts and essential oils. The glass jar is recyclable or reusable, please be kind to the environment :)
Using the enclosed wooden scoop, pour a scoop full into running warm (or hot) bath water, sink in and enjoy. "
Also in Sandlewood!

Great Find on Etsy!



Can’t you just see how scrumptious her sugar scrubs are?! I was one of the Guinea Pigs she refers to in her product description She will be listing her bath salts tomorrow so stay tuned for more all-natural, non-toxic, healing, soothing products from Barbara.
"I loved the sugar scrub I purchased from a major retail outlet, until I read the ingredients. A whole list of chemicals that I couldn't pronounce and didn't want. So began my first 'mad science' experiments to make a product that is good for the body, soul and environment.So I began with a list of ingredients that nourish your skin. Organic sugars that naturally exfoliate. Sweet almond oil to moisturize and soothe skin. Apricot kernel oil for it's high vitamin E content and skin softening. Grape seed oil for toning and healing. Scented with sandalwood and lavender essential oils, forming a synergy of scents to boost confidence and relax the mind.Then I sent a batch out to my 'guinea pigs', family and friends that were willing to give me honest feedback. They overwhelmingly love it and want more. However, as with any product with natural carrier oils, this will make your bathtub or shower slippery; so please use caution and common sense when using.This large 8-ounce jar is sealed and securely wrapped for shipping. Please note that I do not use emulsifiers, preservatives or artificial colors in this; this is a full jar of high quality oil and organic sugars. The heavy walled jar is labeled for recycling, so please recycle!
Simply smooth on skin and rinse with hot water. It will literally leave your skin as smooth as a baby's bare bottom"
Look for more scents to come!
The jars are dishwasher safe and because I re-use a lot rather than recycle so I use mine for beads and other small trinkets.
