March 30, 2017 by Kathryn 140 Comments

With the winter cold finally coming to an end, I’ve been in the mood for some extra indulgence. I know that hot summer days are just around the corner but for the moment, we’re still dealing with cold nights, freezing winds and a few too many grey days to suit me. Luckily, a little pampering with the Live Clean Spa Therapy line has me feeling relaxed, refreshed and ready to tackle even the gloomiest days with a smile!

The Live Clean Spa Therapy collection consists of body wash, body scrub, dead sea salts, foam bath and body lotion. All the products have a delicious light citrus and ginger scent and are enriched with nourishing ingredients including Aloe Vera, Jojoba Oil and Chamomile.

Treat Skin to Gentle Nourishment with the Live Clean Fresh Face Collection-Giveaway

October 28, 2016 by Kathryn 137 Comments

The more my skin starts to mature, the more I need gentle, yet effective cleansing and moisturizing to keep it looking its best. Whether I’m on the go or lounging at home, taking care of my face is always a priority. That’s why I’m so happy that I discovered the Live Clean Fresh Face collection some time ago. The products are gentle, contain organic botanicals and are so effective for revealing skin’s radiance. In fact, the only skincare products I took on my recent two-week trip to Ireland were the ones in the Live Clean Fresh Face travel collection.

So, what makes this skincare line so great? For one thing, it provides thorough cleansing, nourishing moisture and protection against the elements, all without leaving skin feeling greasy or weighed down. Since I get hormonal breakouts, a good lightweight cleanser is a must for me and the Live Clean Fresh Face Foaming Cleanser is ideal. I love the way the foam provides a deep clean without drying out my skin.

When it comes to appealing scents for body care products, I’ve always been in love with vanilla. The sweet, soothing aroma creates the perfect relaxing experience whether I’m scrubbing up in the shower, softening my skin with lotion or even just washing my hands before cooking supper. And when I can enjoy that scent without exposing my skin to parabens, phthalates or harsh chemicals, I’m one happy woman! That’s why I’m so excited about the newest Live Clean body care products: Live Clean Vanilla Oatmeal Soothing Body Wash and Liquid Hand Soap!

The smell of both of these products is absolutely decadent and I especially loved using the hand soap since it left my hands feeling soft and nourished. The oatmeal provides gentle cleansing while also helping to soften and moisturize hands, and the Vitamin E and organic botanicals help nourish for the healthiest hands I could have hoped for!

Prepare Your Yard for Winter in 3 Simple Steps

September 14, 2016 by Kathryn Leave a Comment

September is often a warm and beautiful month here in Saskatchewan, but the cool nights and shorter days always get me thinking about winter nonetheless. And that means that I start thinking about how to prepare our yard and outdoor area for the cold winter months ahead. Saying goodbye to summer is never one of my favourite moments, but making sure all our favourite things are ready for next year is worth the work!

Step One – Cleaning

Back yard preparation always starts with some yard cleaning for me. Getting all the boys’ smaller outdoor toys into the house and packed away in a box for next year is my first step. Then I treat any weeds that have sprung up in between our patio stones in the back yard. Finally, a quick spray-down of the concrete and a fall flower beside my favourite bench ensures I can enjoy the yard during cooler fall days as well! [Read more…]
