Remember the senses and flavors of your childhood? Our friends at Crazy Rumors definitely do! Not only do they make some amazing gourmet lip balms that are all natural and great for you, but their tasty flavors will take you back to a time when pigtails and popsicles were the fad.
Cleansers, creams, lotions and deodorants are hygienic essentials, but how healthy are many of these products that we use every day? With chemical additives, preservatives and detergents such as parabens and aluminum, they can actually end up being harmful to our well-being. Not to mention, many are also tested on animals, or contain ingredients that make them far from cruelty-free.
The use of soap is something we generally put little thought into. It is accessible almost anywhere and as long as it does its job of keeping us clean, we’re happy. But, what if there was a way to purchase this basic necessity and share that happiness with a war-torn community in another country? A way that by making just one choice we could loosen the ties of a community enslaved by its most profitable resource and bring equality to a multi-gendered company.

Beauty products are designed to do just what the title suggests– to make us beautiful. Or at least feeling that way. But, often times the effects the ingredients have on the planet are so damaging, that it’s ironic we consider them safe enough for something as delicate as our skin. Thousands of synthetic chemicals are added to products like face cream, lotion, shave gel and shampoo, yet few of them are tested for safety. They are absorbed in into our bodies, and then washed down the drain to be recycled into drinking water.

I’m a big fan of all four natural scents, the peppermint provides that natural tingle that make your skin feel stimulated, the tea tree oil is incredibly healthy and helps with skin blemishes, and the rosemary and lavender have a great calming effect.
