YesterYear All-Natural Handmade Soap Review

Now that I am back in town I finally got the chance to use my new Yester Year All-Natural Handmade soaps! I was itching to get back to try them, and was very pleased when I finally did.

When I opened my package I saw this beautifully wrapped gift-set of three different soaps.  Excited, I opened it like it was Christmas.  The soaps themselves are individually wrapped, so if you want to use them one-at-a-time like I do there are no worries about them getting sticky or used out-of-turn.

They come in many different fragrances, and the ones I received were African Black, Mango Papaya, and Orange Patchouli.

Awesome gift idea

 With the soaps came a small informational sheet that described the product and its origins.  My camera did not do it justice, but I did my best.

 I had a hard time choosing which soap to use first, but Orange Patchouli won.  The ingredients are as shown below:

Olive Oil, Coconut Oil, Soybean Oil, Organic Shea Butter, Water

I love knowing that the products I use are all-natural, so it comes to no surprise that I jumped at the chance to try these soaps.  They are made with basic, all-natural ingredients.  My first thoughts, however, were that it didn't seem like enough to make soap.  Would it work?  Only one way to find out!

Natural is good

The fragrance of this soap was my favorite of the three, though all three had an awesome smell.  It also added a nice aroma to my bathroom.  It wasn't too strong, but just enough to give a light, pleasant scent.

After many uses I noticed my hands were softer and I did not have to worry about any smell irritating Lily or me after I washed my hands.   These are great for those with sensitive skin, so they are suitable for all types of skins.  No worries with these soaps!

If you are looking for a great, natural gift (like for Mother's Day coming up) or would like some handmade soaps of your own, order at YesterYear Soap and pick out a few today!  I have a list of my own forming :)

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Mail Call! And Other Lily News

So, I made a post before about being addicted to Listia. Well, I got some awesome stuff I won in the mail! Lily volunteered to model her cute bows.

Aren't they precious?? I originally won just one, but due to some communication issues the one sending the bows sent two! Awesome! Many thanks, if you read this.

I also got a cute little coyote pendant :) It's really pretty. I will show it one I get it on a necklace

I got some Mederma products I won in a giveaway to remove stretchmarks. SCORE!

And a free perfume sample. Awesome.

In the life of Lily Bud, she is beginning to grab her paci and try to put it in her mouth. She's close! I also gave her a little massage after her bath. It totally energized her, opposite of desired effect. Oh well, she's asleep on my arm now.

A whole bunch of awesome over here.

Look At What I Made!!

Okay, I'm really excited about this and I know it isn't the best. I'm no master seamstress, so don't laugh. I made a hood for Lily today!!

AND IT FITS!!

I'm proud of myself. Hopefully with more practice I can make things with less flaws.

It's a hood. It's getting colder and her hats aren't fitting, so... I thought a few practice sewing attempts could be hoods :D
