If you haven’t heard of Yara’s Bliss yet, you’re in for a treat. This relatively new company celebrates simple luxuries and understands the value of handmade soaps scented with green apple, vanilla and lemon sugar, bath bombs and fizzies concocted from a delicious blends of botanicals and essential oils, and whip-smart packaging – I’m talking exfoliating bath mitts and “soap savers,” which are mini mesh pouches you slip a bar of soap into before using to eradicate any and all signs of dead skin cells.
With so many interesting choices, (did I mention they make aromatherapy neck warmers that are designed …read more

Review: Beau Bain Bath Bombs

Professional Bath and Body companies have special …read more
