categories: DIY Projects, Wellness

This DIY Natural All Season Moisturizer Sun Cream keeps your skin soft & smooth and protectis your skin from the sun anytime of the year! So easy to make!Do you like spending time outdoors? Think the sun can damage your skin any season of the year? If answered yes to these questions, you have the right idea!   I am someone that spends a ton of time outdoors, all seasons of the year. Obviously, in the summer, more of my skin is exposed to the sun.  However, In winter, especially with snow cover, the effects of the sun on my skin could be more intense and more damaging.   I really mean to put sunscreen ALL of the time, but I’ll be honest-  I don’t!  This is partly because I refuse to put on the store-bought kind that is laden with synthetic-chemicals.  Also, I am sometimes lazy.  I know that is not safe and it bothers me quite a bit. I believe I solved my problem though….  (more…)

Slather on this Whipped Body Cream made with Mango Butter to soothe, moisturize, and nourish your skin! It is light, creamy, and SO amazing!

DIY Whipped Body Cream made with Mango Butter

If you know me, you know that I make virtually all of my own skincare and body care products. I’m a little obsessed :).  Well, I am at it again after getting my hands on some of this FABULOUS Mango Butter.   I usually use a high quality Shea butter as an ingredient in many of my DIY products.  After getting my hands of some of this LUXURIOUS mango butter, I had to give it a try in place of the Shea butter.  The result-  still AMAZING!   The major difference I found was that the Mango Butter was a bit lighter in weight than the Shea Butter, so if offered a slightly lighter feel while slathering it on.  Choices….  I love the choices I now have! 🙂  This recipe is a must try for some seriously smooth and moisturized skin!

Do you use lip balm like it's your job? This silky, smooth DIY Natural Lip Balm is moisturizing and soothing. Change that chapped pout right into a smile!
