The Everyday Project Day 331

It's been a crafty kind of day. For about 6 months now, I've been fascinated with a few blogs about making different beauty and cleaning products using natural, organic ingredients. I'm also looking to branch out the In The Mood products so today was testing day.

First up is the Healing Salt Scrub. I know lots of people who do lots of fitness, yoga, have injuries, had surgery or other health issues. Take a look at the ingredient list.

Epsom Salts- has beneficial properties that can soothe the body, mind and soul. Some of the countless health benefits include relaxing the nervous system, curing skin problems, soothing back pain and aching limbs, easing muscle strain, healing cuts, treating cold and congestion, and drawing toxins from the body.
Sweet Almond Oil - helps to relieve muscular aches and pains.
Eucalyptus Oil  - this essential oil helps to clear the mind and focus concentration, while reducing swelling in the mucus membranes. It is very valuable in fighting respiratory problems, fighting inflammation and sore muscles, rheumatism, headaches and nervous exhaustion, while boosting wound and ulcer healing and soothing skin eruptions.
Lavender Oil -has a soothing and calming effect on the nerves, relieving tension, depression, panic, hysteria and nervous exhaustion in general and is effective for headaches, migraines and insomnia.
Arnica Oil - muscle-soothing, strain-healing, bruise-minimizing
Vitamin E Oil - Antioxidant and wound healing
Castile Soap - a preservative and good for the skin

Next we have the Lavender Lotion Bars. Ok...fish. I needed a silicon mold and I had the fish ones for ice cubes. Lotion bars are similar to soap but they are lotion. You rub it on and your body hear melts it enough to smooth it on.

 Both products work well together with the lavender scent. I still need to work on the packaging and labels. Dang Avery labels did not work correctly with my printer. I'll be doing about 3 craft shows and host an open house before Christmas.

In The Mood Beauty is born.

It is what it is...
