Something Random!

My favorite toothpaste comes from my kitchen cabinets not a store shelf. This is what the main "active"  ingredients are believed to do charcoal to whiten, essential oils to disinfect and bentonite to pull out toxins.  I've seen other variants floating around the web but, since I've whipped these two up I haven't felt the need to experiment with others. Pictured above is my Clay-Paste (coming soon) and Whitening Paste

My Favorite Toothpaste

You'll Need:
3 Small Glass Bowls (dipping bowls will do)
1 Mini Spatula
1 TBS Baking Soda
1 TBS Activated Charcoal Powder
3 TBS Bentonite Clay
2 TBS Coconut Oil
1 TBS Stevia (or 1 Dropper Full or 1 Packet)  OR XLITOL

1/4 TEASPOON Celtic Sea Salt

2-4 Drops YL Essential Oils♥ ♥ OR
20 DROPS diluted oils
(Ingredients will say some sort of carrier oil like grape seed or olive oil)
My favorite EOs for toothpaste  are :
Neem, Thieves, Myrr, Cinnamon Bark, Peppermint, Tea Tree
(feel free to mix your favorites.)
 ♥♥See below post for important details

Mix the following WELL: Charcoal, and Clay in one bowl and in an other bowl mix room temperature coconut oil (liquid state) with the essential oils,SPRINKLE IN STEVIA packet or drops then add in the baking soda. Fold it all together in the 3rd bowl. Spoon into  a squeeze tube like this or that... Need to wait for one of those? Want to up-cycle something? Spoon into something like an old turkey flavor injector or medicine dispenser.

I am not a doctor, I am just a mom that prefers natural things. Anything that I say is based on my own online research. I can not claim the oils to be medicinal. 

If ordering from Young Living it makes the most sense to be a wholesale member rather  than a retail member since after ordering the $300+ value kit for $150 you'll get 24% off all future purchases. Kits range from roughly $50 to $160. The kits priced lower than $150 do not come with the 10 pack of oils.  No needing to SELL ever but, the option is there.  I DO receive a COMMISSION if you order from the links! Questions? Contact me on FACEBOOK and I'll help you out!

Review: My Konjac Sponge

My Konjac Sponge

Go for It!

First I would like to say, I make a lot of my own clay face masks and beauty products so, I know quality ingredients! Activated Bamboo Charcoal is one of nature's miraculous wonders! "ABC" pulls out toxins. What are pimples? Infections. What do infections have? Toxins! When first using this product to treat a toxic warfare on your face you can expect to see some unsettling disturbances. This is all because your toxins are being drawn out. After frequent use your skin will begin to neutralize and heal. When it comes to anything related to beauty patience is a virtue keep this in mind before giving up and tossing in the towel. Choosing the right sponge is important see the sensitive skin version here. 

What is Konjac?
Konjac is an Asian plant believed to be medicinal. The sponge is made from the plant's root.

Review: BeeSili Ice-Pop Molds

Absolutely Go for It!

Why I want you to buy this particular brand: Peak Life Gadgets' Elizabeth Harris, branched out into the online product arena to raise funds for soldiers suffering from PTSD. I have many family members that were active duty and suffer from this, so I can really relate to how it affects our country's men. Elizabeth created a system over a decade ago called Brain Feng Shui that helps erase pictures and emotions related to PTSD memories. Pay it forward to our military  members!

I received these yesterday afternoon and I have to say I was more than thrilled. I've been wanting a fully functional product like this for quite a while. I washed them and my family immediately got to work. We used a food processor to blend our own handpicked raspberries with Greek yogurt. An other blend was frozen concentrated grape juice with warm water. My kids were ecstatic and couldn't wait for them to freeze. After 2 hours they dug in telling me they were their new favorite pops and we must buy more! I definitely recommend them! They are an amazing value, very universal and a joy to use.

OTHER USES:
Carry loose tea & coffee

Traveling- Fill with shampoo/conditioner/soap

Portion control- Just big enough for small servings of nuts, candies, sunflower seeds etc.

Lunch boxes- Condiments &Spreads travel well in these

Ice Packs- Awesome for icing puffy eyes in the morning or for the kids bumps and bruises

Baby Bag- Formula, Dirty tissues, keep medicine droppers clean

Possibilities are endless!
