Aromatherapy Sleep: Lavender & Vanilla Body Wash & Foam Bath and Lotion

Hello Everyone!


*This is the old packaging from Bath & Body Works. All product information is courtesy of bathandbodyworks.com

Back in March, I wrote a review on Aromatherapy Focus: Eucalyptus & Tea Body Wash & Foam Bath and Lotion . Today I have Aromatherapy Body care items from the Lavender & Vanilla line. I picked up these items during the SAS in June.



This fast-foaming body wash is infused with soothing skin conditioners, while an aromatherapy blend of essential oils and natural ingredients benefits body, mind & mood. Breathe deeply for best results.


Candles, Welch' s Sparkling White Grape Juice, and Aromatherpy Sleep Lavender & Vanilla Body Wash & Foam Bath



Ultra-creamy, nourishing body lotion is formulated to give skin long-lasting moisture while an aromatherapy blend of natural ingredients and essential oils benefits body, mind & mood. Breathe deeply for best results.

My Thoughts

Other than the wonderful scent of these products I really don't think these products help me get a good night's rest. I noticed that these products are soothing, and calming, but like I stated I don't really see much of a change in the way I rest. I've had insomnia off and on for the past few years, but it has gotten better. I have noticed that after my shower or bath I feel less stressed. The body wash & foam lathers so well and my tub is filled with bubbles. The body lotion is thick in textured and keeps my skin moisturized throughout the night. I will continue to use and probably repurchase these products because I love the scent and the calmness I feel before I go to bed.

Dollar Tree Pre Fall Haul

Hello Everyone!


I know it's still Summer, but you may have noticed the last few posts have been Fall related. I'm just so excited for my favorite season to arrive. Today I wanted to share my Dollar Tree Pre Fall Haul. Don't forget to check out my Fall's Coming! Post to see the in store Fall items!


Dollar Tree had so many cute signs! It was hard for me to narrow the signs down lol, but happy with my selections. You probably already guessed that I have a slight obsession with pumpkin decor.


What's Fall without leaves? These beautiful glitter leaves are going to be perfect for the season! I picked up a few candle holders as well. I decided to do a Dollar Tree haul since the store has so many amazing cute items that I can decorate my home for Fall! and other seasons/holidays!


Cute Halloween Water Globes 


Happy Fall Decorating!

Morning Walks

Hello Everyone!


This isn't my apartment complex, This is just one of the places that I like to walk.

Part of my counseling treatment is that I do light exercise. Up until a few years ago I used to try to exercise on a regular basis, but I slacked off until recently. My counselor suggested that I get back to light exercise to help ease some of my depression and anxiety symptoms.


For the past few weeks I've started walking in the mornings. I find that walking does help ease my anxiety in the morning. It takes my mind off of things and I'm getting in touch with nature. When I went to the doctor last month I found out that I've lost 9lbs!


I like to get out early and go walking since it's so hot here. The times it's too hot in the morning or I get a late start, I try to walk around the mall before it opens. I'll would like start back with cardio soon, but for right now I'm enjoying my morning walks.


Enjoy these beautiful Summer days!

Fall's Coming!

Hello Everyone!


Fall Decorated Tree in the front of Hobby Lobby. I love this Fall themed tree!

Over the weekend I went to browse around Hobby Lobby and Dollar Tree to see the new Fall items/decor. If you didn't know this, I absolutely love Fall! I've expressed my love for Fall over the years on my blog, so when I see Fall decor in stores it makes me happy.

Hobby Lobby 


Pumpkins everywhere!


Cute decor and signs


Fall display


Thankful Always


I may not like the taste of pumpkin, but I sure love Pumpkin decor!


Dishes and decor


More dishes 


Fall's coming!

Dollar Tree


Scarecrows


Fall decor is arriving at Dollar Tree. There wasn't a lot of decor at one of the Dollar Tree's I visited. I'm thinking that will change in the upcoming weeks.


More Fall Signs and decor


Fall flowers


I went to another Dollar Tree, and the store had so many cute figurines!


Fall themed decor


Typically I'm not a Rose scented type of girl, but the new Rose line (Rose & Vanilla) at Bath & Body Works smells so good! Don't forget to check out my Bath & Body Works Fall Preview 2018


Pre Fall Decorations/Items 


Magnetic Fall Leaves and a Pumpkin Cupcake candle from Bath & Body Works. I've had my eye on these magnetic leaves for a while. 


 I picked up a few pink ceramic that were 40% off from Hobby Lobby.


Fall Leaves from Bath & Body Works and Dollar Tree 


Lastly, a few pumpkins from Dollar Tree. I really love the message Thankful & Blessed on one of the pumpkins.


I'm thinking about keeping the dish cloths yellow in the kitchen this Fall. 

Thinking about Fall


 I made a homemade chicken pot pie for dinner tonight. One of my Favorite Fall meals.


I'm enjoying the Summer days, even though it's been extremely hot in South Carolina. I can't wait until my favorite season, Fall :) Who else is excited for Fall?

Yankee Candle Fall Preview 2018

Hello Everyone!


For my 5th blogiversary I received a few Yankee Candle gift cards, and I decided to check out a few Fall items.  Don't forget to check out my last post for Bath & Body Works Fall 2018 Preview


Let the Fall 2018 previewing begin!


Wax melts


Fall scents 


Fall goodness

 

I love the elegance of the displays in Yankee Candle. The displays are always So pretty!


Wax warmers


I've never tried any wood wick candles. Anyone have any experience with these types of candles?


Cute scented car charms and refills


Sometimes I really want to get the large jar candles so I can purchases the glass shades, but I like the large 2  wick tumbler candles much better. 


My haul. I'm not going to focus too much on the candles right now, since I'm planning to post a Fall Candles Haul. 


Part 2 of my haul. The candle was a free gift. 


I know I said I wasn't going to focus on the candles since I plan on doing and haul/review, but Luscious Pumpkin Trifle smells absoultely amazing!


My first time using Yankee Candle car accessories. These are so cute!


I actually had to get a price adjustment since the car vents were buy 2 get 1 free and the store. I'm glad I caught that!
