DIY Easy Peppermint Oatmeal Soap

I have been on a huge Essential Oil kick lately in my bath, my diffuser I even made some DIY Essential oil necklace’s. I’m a born crafter at heart I just love it especially when it’s easy, fun and cheap. Of course you can go out and buy cute soap but with this you do it and know EXACTLY what’s in it & gives it special meaning when and if you want to give as a gift.

Ingredients:

Clear Melt and Pour Soap Base – Buy @ a local store or HERE

Soap Mold – I bought mine at Michael’s

Soap Cutter – I used to use a knife until I found the real deal buy @ Hobby Lobby etc… or HERE

1 Cup Oatmeal

1/3 Cup Peppermint, crushed

20 drops Peppermint Essential Oils

Directions:

Cut up and melt the soap base.

In a blender mix up with oatmeal and peppermint until it forms a powder.

Stir the oatmeal/peppermint powder into the melted soap base.

Add 20 drops of Peppermint Essential Oil.

Pour mixture into your soap basin, top with oatmeal/crushed peppermint, and allow for it to set for an hour.

After firm remove from mold. Slice off a chunk and use.

There are so many helpful benefits of peppermint and not to mention the oatmeal is the best for DRY skin and mine stays DRY if I don’t stay on top of it. This is so easy and you can do it just the way I did or make it your own. Please ask if you have any questions at all I try to make everything detailed so anyone can make this easily.

Thanks so much for coming by ya’ll means so much to me and my tiny blog !!

I have a “Box” Problem.

In the new world of the montly subscription boxes I am definitely a junkie I love them !!! I have always got the birchbox & Ipsy…. And have been pleased everytime.

But recently I have expanded to jewlery and soap yep you heard me right and they are both simply amazing. I’m going to show you both below and all the reasons I love them !!!!

I strongly feel like women and especially moms deserve the “extra” things in life if we don’t care of us we can take care of anyone else.

And for me a few times a month opening a aweosme surprise box does the trick for me and gives me that extra feel good about myself.

SAVONBOX:

This one was very exciting and different than the normal. I could smell the two soaps inside before I even opened it. Not only are they so unique and pretty the quality is by far the best !!! I received Black Raspberry Vanilla &Blue Opal I definitely couldn’t pick a favorite if I had to. I have very very dry sensitive skin and did not have one issue I was surprised !!!

Overall I love this !!!! And will definitely continue to get them. They are so perfect it almost makes me want to “save” them.

Next up is the montly Jewelry box I get before I signed up I had heard a few things about it but never really understood here I will give you all details and you will see what I got in mine.

ROCKSBOX:

I love all jewlery especially necklaces I mean I can put on a plain sweater/shirt and an amazing necklace and people act as if I have a prom dress on so heck yea a win for me !!! And I love items that are unique and different and that’s definitely what I got.

The scoop:
You get a box each month you can keep what you want & buy it or send it all back for a new box and only get charged the monthly fee. It’s so fun and give you a chance to have new stuff all the time.

They send everything to you packaged very very nice and neat its fun to open them all.

You will get a label to ship it back free its so easy !!!

You can update your style anytime so they pick new things for you. But so far they have judged my style 100% right.

This is definitely something I will keep doing its all very nice designer Items and way different than what you just go out and buy and believe me you can tell in the weight and quality !!

If you want to try it with no risk and free for the first month enter code: lacibff5

Don’t like it cancel love it keep it

What do you think are y’all box junkies I definitely am and justify it by it being my area of a splurge, fun and all mine !!!

Do y’all love boxes or no ?? Which ones do you get if any ?
