Simply Earth | August's Recipe Box

Hey everyone!

Happy August!

2 weeks until the older kids start school...2 WEEKS!

I know I sound like a broken record, but come on...really? 2 weeks?

Ugh.

I find that, as the kids get older, spending time with them becomes more and more fun for me - and less and less work...and the days just go by way too fast. My daughter will be a junior in high school this year, and my older son will be a freshman, and I just can't seem to wrap my head around that quite yet.

But alas, I digress. I'll have to wallow in my own self-pity later.

Right now I'm focused on all of the amazing that you'll find in the Simply Earth August Recipe Box! Woo hoo!

This month is all about your skin.

And let me tell you...if there's one area in my life that needs a TON of work, it's my skin.
I've dealt with acne and scarring since I was a teen, but after I had kids, my skin really went crazy.
I've got wrinkles & pimples & uneven patches & sun damage.

Basically, I'm a mess.

But I've found that products with a ton of chemicals and promises just don't do the trick for me.

That's why I'm so excited about this month's box.

Wanna see what's inside?

I't's like everything I ever wanted in one little box!

Here are the essential oils that are included:

• Rosemary:

Uses:

• Relieves sore, tight muscles
• Uplifts
• Clears the mind
• Warms
• Inhibits growth of fungus

• Frankincense:

Uses:

• Assists in fighting germs
• Reduces symptoms related to bronchitis and sinus congestion
• Alleviates Swelling
• Deodorizes
• Clears the mind

• Clove:

Uses:

• Warms mind and body
• Improves focus
• Promotes confidence
• Helps fight seasonal illnesses

• Clear Skin Blend:

This lovely-smelling blend contains a mix of Tea Tree, Sandalwood, Cedarwood, Juniper Berry & Lemon oils

Uses:

• Clears skin
• Reduces redness

And these are the recipes you'll be able to make using the cards included in your box...

• Feel Good Morning Diffuser

This is a delightful blend sure to wake you up and get you going!

• Frankincense Face Scrub

This scrub contains oatmeal, brown sugar, and honey (not included in your box)...the perfect all-natural exfoliator!

• Rosemary Facial Steam

Have you ever steamed your face? Man, it feels so good...

• Skin Renewing Face Mask

This month's Recipe Box even comes with a reusable sheet mask!

• Hydrosol Facial Toner

Apple Cider Vinegar (not included in your box) & Lavender Hydrosol work together to calm and tone your skin & to remove any leftover dirt and grime. I love this stuff.

NOTE: The little bottle I have shown here is not large enough to hold the entire amount of toner produced from the recipe. I ended up mixing the toner in a larger container and pouring it into two of these little bottles.

• Moisturizing Face Cream

• Clear Skin Roll On

This roll-on is a must for me. I love that I can carry it along with me and just dab a bit onto breakouts whenever I need to.

Your perfect skin care routine...with enough ingredients to last for months!

And that's just August's box...imagine getting a box filled with amazing products like this - and recipes for how to use them - every 30 days!

And honestly, for just $39/month with FREE SHIPPING, how can you go wrong?

$39 per month!

Start your subscription now and you'll be all set to receive next month's box, too!

In September's box we'll be making soap! The essential oils that will be included are: Happy Joy Blend, Lemongrass, Bay & Cajeput...ooooooh, I've never heard of Cajeput...I'm intrigued...

I could go on & on about how much I love these oils...and how much I love Simply Earth as a company - did you know they donate 13% of all of their profits to help end human trafficking? Read all about their cause HERE.
