How I use essential oils

Hi Lovelies,

How I use essential oils
How I use essential oils

Essential oils. These little bottles of plant magic help me so much in these difficult times when the world is upside down. You might remember this Soil essential oils review (here) or this Living Libations Nebulizing Diffuser review (here) posts I’d done recently – both are still the loves of the moment! In this post I will explain the ways I use essential oils, as I get lots of questions about it. The brands I love and trust are Living Libations, Neal Yard Remedies & more recent additions of Soil & Balm Balm. Organic is always best, but if can’t afford it, at least do the homework on brand’s background check – do they grow their plants? How they are sourcing their raw materials if not? What is their extraction method? Do they use solvents? All that matters greatly, because the finished product is only as good as your starting material. You don’t want concentrated pesticides, am I right?

Revisiting My 2018 Love Lula Favourites

Hi Lovelies,

Welcome back! And welcome, if you are new here xoxo

Love Lula Best Natural & Organic Products

How are all of You? I hope everyone is keeping up well during these difficult times? If You need a distraction & are up for some blog reading, let’s revisit my 2018 Love Lula Best products & see how many of them are still standing strong today? See this FB album for 80 more Love Lula related posts here & check out their online shop here. (sadly no longer exists)

Idea for this post came when I was backing up my blog posts – being still is the best time on catching up on all the things I knew I needed to do, but never had time to actually do it. As life doesn’t stand still, my Holy Grail product change over time too, due to many different reasons – the brands sell out, products change in formulations, stop working for me or are no longer stocked by Love Lula. If You want to know my Love Lula Loves from two years ago, You are in the right place 🙂 Continue reading “Revisiting My 2018 Love Lula Favourites”

Sending Love & Light To All Of You! Shine a light to fight Coronavirus

Hello Lovelies,

Welcome back! And welcome, if you are new here.

This.

There’s so much I wanted to say to lift people up. Very hard when I am coming apart at the seams myself – I am like a yo-yo emotionally. Stories of waters clearing in Venice, no smog in China & animals coming back to the places they haven’t been spotted for years are nice to see, but I wish this wouldn’t involve people dying. My heart bleeds and I am praying for the world!

This blog is also an opportunity to invite all of you people to get together and shine a light to fight this damned virus this Friday at 20.30 UK time (see this relevant FB group for matching time around the world). Because collectively we have power & if we will join together in thought at the same time, it will make a huge difference.

Also this:

 

We are in this together. Let’s join together and pray for the world.

 

Sending Lots of Love & Light,

Renata.

Ps. I will be taking some time off blogging - I hope you understand. I have a family to take care of, not used to juggling everyone in a small space with added schooling on top of it - hard as it is, but add meltdowns & anxieties, food and supplement shortage & it is little wonder I am panicked. Anxious. And so many other things, I do not have to explain. Very nearly have panic attacks before going to work (it is considered essential) & hearing all the stories just fuels the bad state I am in. Blogging is the last thing on my mind right now. x

Living Libations Nebulizing Diffuser Review

Hello Lovelies,

Welcome back! And welcome if you are new here xoxo

Living Libations Nebulizing Diffuser Review
Living Libations Nebulizing Diffuser Review

Hope everyone is holding up ok in these horrible times? Virus news is all You and I see and hear right now, but let’s leave it aside for right now? After experiencing every single emotion under the sun, breaking down a couple of times and a lot of thinking, I am back to work here, and this time I will review something that You might want to have and use right now? I feel like right now it is time more than ever to support our favourite indie brands and shops, if we stop buying from them right now, they will find it super hard to survive – and when we will come out of our panic fog eventually, they might not be there anymore. Please step forward Living Libations Nebulizing Diffuser, which I will be reviewing this today.

Love Lula Beauty Box March 2020 Reveal [AD]

Hi Lovelies,

Welcome back! And welcome if you are new here xoxo

Love Lula Beauty Box MARCH 2020
Love Lula Beauty Box March 2020

Do I love Love Lula Beauty Box*? You bet I do – just check this All Things Love Lula FB album here, half of the posts are about Love Lula Beauty Boxes. They are are a great way to discover new items you might have missed otherwise, and I love that anything coming from Love Lula is cruelty free and guaranteed not to have any toxic ingredients – they have strict criteria for any brands/product they accept, and that is taking the guesswork off your shoulders. International boxes sometimes differ from the UK ones due to Love Lula not being able to ship nail polishes or perfumes. Shall we see what’s in the March 2020 box? And my thoughts on January 2020 one?
