DIY Honey Body Wash

Hey guys, I’m back with another great beauty DIY just in time for mother’s day! This DIY Honey Body Wash is super moisturizing and luxurious without spending a fortune! What better way to spoil mom than to give her a homemade spa gift basket filled with ultra luxe homemade products that didn’t cost an arm and a leg! You can scroll down for more beauty DIY’s to fill her basket with.

You all know how much I enjoy making my own products, it’s so fun to make, and it’s also so thoughtful to gift a homemade gift. It shows that you took the time out of your day to show appreciation for them, the best part is-they don’t know it took less than 5 minutes to make! 😉

That’s right, 5 minutes for a homemade gift to spoil someone! We only need a few ingredients for this body wash, you can totally skip out on the essential oils if you don’t have any, but if you do, definitely add it. I chose citrus essential oils for this, it is so energizing and uplifting with the morning shower. We just need honey, castile soap, and Vitamin E oil. If you don’t have Vitamin E, you could substitute with Jojoba Oil or Sweet Almond Oil.

Happy Mother’s Day Free Printable

Hey guys, I’m back with another free printable just in time for Mother’s Day! This Happy Mother’s Day Free Printable is a 4×6. You guys can either give this printable to mom or keep this for yourself, or both!

Once you open the PDF file you can print the file on cardstock or regular printer paper. I do prefer cardstock because it’s heavier and will hold up better over time. What I love about printables is it’s such an easy way to update your decor without breaking the bank!

DIY Lavender Body Scrub

Hey guys, I’m back with another great gift idea, this DIY Lavender Body Scrub is the perfect gift to make in under 10 minutes! Chances are, you probably already have the supplies in your kitchen. Yes, in your kitchen! This is so much more cost effective than going out and buying a store bought fancy scrub that is loaded with harsh chemicals and preservatives. All the ingredients in this scrub are food items you can eat! You know what you’re putting on your skin and if you had to buy all the supplies for this it would cost about $20. For $20, you can make so much of this for yourself or for a gift!

This scrub is made with sugar, lavender essential oil, extra virgin olive oil, and organic coconut oil. If you don’t have the lavender essential oil on hand, you could omit the oil or add a different oil that you prefer. I use lavender because I love the smell of it and I find it very soothing! You see what the ingredients are?! Sugar, coconut oil, and extra virgin olive oil-everyone has that at home! This is such a nice homemade gift with ingredients you already have in your kitchen that doesn’t cost a fortune. You could also keep the cost lower if you don’t have essential oils, and you don’t need a fancy jar to store it in, you could use a mason jar.

Benefits of Lavender Essential Oil:

Has antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties

Relaxes and helps with sleep

Sugar is a great exfoliator and is also gentle enough to use on your face, coconut oil contains anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties and is also very nourishing for your skin. Olive oil acts as an antioxidant and some research says putting olive oil on your skin after sun exposure may help fight off cancer causing cells. Now, when you combine all these ingredients together, you have a super moisturizing exfoliator that leaves your skin silky smooth!
