All in Self Care
Selfcare Sunday | 4 Bath Teas You Can Make Right Now
It’s been a week, hasn’t it? We’re feeling tired, worn out, and a bit emotional.

We’ve found baths to be the perfect, low-cost way to create a little ‘relaxation cave’ and slow the heck down. We don’t need any special equipment, and most of the ingredients we’ve found to create the most lux baths have actually come straight out of our pantry or bathroom closet.
So read on, and we hope you’re inspired to create a little me-time this week. (Oh who are we kidding… Do it today.)

Natural Deodorant: You Call It An Obsession; We Call It type:A
Most natural deodorants are the pits.
To varying degrees, the consistency is off and sometimes you have to dig them out of little pots and the stuff gets under your fingernails and it’s gross. Some of the fragrances are a little weird; they stop working within minutes, hours, or weeks of use. Most leave a mightily unattractive, oily stain under the arms.
