Luxe Gifts from Soap & Paper Factory: 

NEW Block Party Collection

Hi Lovelies! I am always on the hunt for cute gift ideas. I often gravitate towards bath and body products as I think that those make the most decadent gifts. So often we don't pamper ourselves with nice bath and body products. So, I like to gift super luxe and unique bath and body products as they are such a treat! 

I am already a big fan of Soap & Paper Factory products. They started out as a hand crafted soap company and have grown over the years to have full bath and body collections. The products are all luxury, unique, naturally-sourced, made in the USA, and just beautifully packaged! 

So, I just wanted to let you know about the latest launch from Soap & Paper Factory – their NEW Block Party Collection: an assortment of soaps, hand creams, and bath bombs inspired by cocktails. I am all about a cocktail on the weekend. So, I think that this makes for a super fun idea for a collection! 

The three new scents include Muddled Peppermint, Vanilla Bourbon, and Orange Bitter Pomegranate and are offered in the below products:

NEW Deluxe Bath Bomb: These fizzing bath bombs are rich with skin softening and moisturizing natural ingredients. The aromatherapeutic oils and salts turn a bath into a complete spa experience, allowing stress relief while you soak.

Boxed Hand Cream: These pure, velvety hand creams are beautifully perfumed and loaded with the finest oils available in nature. Carefully selected, these oils will soothe and protect, leaving the skin silky smooth and bursting with vitality.

Petite Boxed Hand Cream: The same soothing formula in a stocking-stuffer size, wonderful for travel and on-the-go use.

Shea Butter Soap Bar: This carefully crafted soap is packed with Shea Butter to keep skin soft and supple, moisturizing as it cleanses.

Hand Cream and Soap Gift Set: Twice as nice, this satchel contains a 1 oz. hand cream and 5 oz. soap. Consider it the perfect hostess gift to dress up a countertop while leaving skin soft and smooth.

I was able to try out the Muddled Peppermint Hand Cream and the Orange Bitter Pomegranate Hand Cream. They are amazing: beautifully packaged, super hydrating, and awesome aromatherpay scents! 

If you are looking for beautiful and unique gifts...or just a treat to yourself, be sure to check out this collection from the Soap & Paper Factory!

YOUR HAMMAM RITUAL IN 5 STEPS:

Here are some tips from Rituals for getting the most out of your Ritual of Hamman Experience:

2. Follow with the Hot Scrub ($29), which contains purifying sea salt, warming ginger and refreshing eucalyptus, immediately reducing fatigue and boosting your mood. Apply on top of the Black Soap for an even smoother result.

3. Continue with the Body Mud ($17) with mineral-rich rhassoul clay, a mud that intensively purifies and polishes the skin by helping to remove dead skin cells.

4. Use the Foaming Shower Gel ($15), containing a purifying, refreshing fragrance that pleasantly and softly cleanses the skin. The gel also soothes and helps the skin to repair itself.

5. After you shower, apply the soothing NEW Body Cream ($33) to the body for a nourished and toned skin.

Did you know that today, August 15^th , was National Relaxation Day? While that day has passed, I think that finding time to relax every day is  so imortant!  I mean, I know that I could certainly use some relaxation. Day-to-day life can be stressful. We must feed our mind and soul and nourish it when we can! Why not celebrate this idea by treating yourself to luxuries at home with beautifying essentials from C.O. Bigelow, mē and Soap & Paper Factory. Why? Because you deserve a treat! 

Here is the Scoop on some fabulously decadent luxury products from C.O. Bigelow, mē and Soap & Paper Factory:

C.O. Bigelow Candle: 

I love C.O. Bigelow candles! The Lavender Peppermint is one of my favorites. It literally smells like a spa. The scent is lasting and the scent throw fills the whole room. The frosted glass candle holder has an understated eleagance that I really appreciate for my home decor.  A coveted collection of scented candles from America’s oldest apothecary.

mē glow beauty boosting pillowcase and eye mask: 

I didn't get a chance to try out the eye mask, however, the satin pillow cases are so luxurious! I feel like consistant sleep on both these pillow cases both soothes your skin and diminishes frizz in your hair. In as little as two weeks, see brighter, glowing skin. In as little as four weeks, see fine lines disappear. Copper is an essential mineral known to enhance skin appearance for a healthy, youthful glow. Whenever the beauty boosting pillowcase or eye mask touches your skin, the copper ions in the fabric interact with the skin’s upper layers during sleep to improve the appearance of skin overnight.

Cost: $55 pillow case, $25 eye mask
