Tip:How Do I Savor My Body Scrub? | Smell Good Spa™

Body Scrubs and Body Polishes are win-win products. Slough off dead skin cells, seal in the moisture with the natural oils, and if you have a Smell Good Spa™ body polish, you're walking away smelling good, too! Three steps in one product, plus, there's no need to lotion up afterwards! See, told ya, win-win.

Here's a useful tip, to help you get the most indulgence from your body scrub.

Although fun, convenient and effective, many women can't figure out how to savor their exfoliants. The next time you're out shopping, pick up a pair of exfoliating gloves. You can find a pair of those textured gloves in the bath section.  Now, when you hop into the tub (or shower) for your spa-at-home time, slide on your gloves, grab a quarter-size amount (per body part) of polish out of the jar, and start massaging. The gloves will assist the exfoliant in removing dead skin cells and the oil will spread.

Another Helpful Tip:
Do not overuse your body scrubs or body polishes. These products should be used no more than 3 times per week.


Have Fun!

What's The Difference? Moisturizer/Emollient | Smell Good Spa™

Do you know the difference between a moisturizer and an emollient?  

• Moisturizer- Something that adds moisture to skin.

What are moisturizers in bath and body products?

Aloe Vera Juice

Water

Moisturizers are lotions and creams, and the skin benefits most when those products are applied throughout the day, and at night. 

• Emollient- Something that softens the skin. Something that protects the skin. A term used to describe single ingredients, however, the finished product is called "moisturizer".

What are emollients in bath and body products?
Nut Butter, Fruit Butter
Plant Oil, Fruit Oil, Nut Oil

Emollients are better known as body butters; body balms; after-bath oils. Those products are excellent to use after bathing/showering. Emollients attract moisture to your skin and retain moisture in your skin.

Natural emollients work best on skin that is hydrated from the inside out. So...drink plenty of h2o and eat "live"green vegetables.

To Your Health!

Don't try to recreate peak experiences. Instead, just accept them as the gift that they are, and don't beat up on yourself for not being able to stay there.
Because if you stayed there, they wouldn't be peak experiences. They would be
normal, every day in time hum drum boring, experiences. So, savor the peak
experiences and compliment yourself upon your achieving of them, and expect more
of them, and leave everything else out of the equation.

Every Monday morning (and throughout the week) my inbox holds inspiration from a beautiful person. Shaun. Below is this morning's inspiring message. Shaun shares quotes and book excerpts. I think someone needs this message today. Whenever I feel that, I will post.

MIRACLE MONDAY

Whenever you are feeling less than good, if you will stop and say, Nothing is more important than that I feel good—I want to find a reason now to feel good, you will find an improved thought.

Anytime you feel negative emotion, you are in the mode of resisting something that you want, and that resistance takes its toll on you. It takes its toll on your physical body, and it takes its toll on the amount of wonderful things that you are allowing to come into your experience.

If you are on a road to nowhere, find another road.
- Ashanti proverb


When we are following the wrong teachings or philosophy, we get stuck. We do not evolve. Life just doesn't seem to come together. We see the same people saying and doing the same thing. We may all be in agreement, but we still are not growing. We may know there is something better, somewhere. We may want or need more. But because we don't know exactly what "it" is, we stay stuck in what is familiar. Could it possibly be that it is time to move on? Shift gears? Get back to basics? Open our minds? Try something new? Well, we will never know until we try. The only way to really be sure we are on the right track is to derail ourselves for just a moment and see what new direction beckons.

Olfactory Moment

June 7

Olfactory- Of, relating to, or contributing to the sense of smell.
Moment- A specific point in time, especially the present time. OR. A particular period of importance, influence, or significance in a series of events or developments.

How significant are the moments in your life? Do you take the time to live in your moments? Do you just go about aimlessly, taking your senses for granted?

What is the Olfactory Moment? The Olfactory Moment is when you tell the readers what aroma or odor you smelled over the weekend. What memory did it recreate? Was it a scent that you may never forget, thus creating future memories of that past moment?

You can read past Olfactory Moments here.

Did you have an Olfactory Moment this weekend?

I did: This weekend I used a homemade hair rinse scented with delightful Dragonberry, on my daughter's hair. Wow! No matter which room in the house I was in, the fragrance of her hair would dance to my nose (still today). I truly believe that if I smell that scent (or anything remotely like it) in the future , I will remember the days of taking care of my daughter's
hair.
