Build Bath & Shower

Shopping for a baby shower gift can be difficult. If the mommy-to-be is anything like me, she started shopping for the baby the day she found out she was pregnant! My mom actually started buying baby items for years before I was pregnant so we had quite the collection when my son arrived. I always try to purchase gifts that I know will be used even if the parents have already have one – like diapers and bath products. You can never have enough diapers (especially in the early weeks of bringing baby home ) and a parent will be using gentle baby bath products on their children well into the toddler and preschool years. The baby gift basket ideas in this post are all about bath time plus we have an exciting giveaway at the end of the post! Baby Gift Basket Ideas – Bath Time: You could start by checking the mommy-to-be’s registry to see if she has any bath items on her registry. If there is a baby bathtub listed , this would be a great (and unique) basket for the rest of the gift! So...

Humans have turned to the healing properties of water for centuries. The Ancient Egyptians used to bathe in the Nile for religious purposes and the Ancient Greeks were famous for their gorgeous, elaborate bath houses . The combination of water, warmth, and steam can alleviate joint and muscle aches, relieve headaches, open the sinuses, promote a healthy delivery for pregnant women and so much more. If you’re already taking baths, you’re a few steps ahead of many other individuals (who only stand in their baths and use the shower). If you aren’t yet taking baths, it’s time to finally clean up your bathtub so you can lie down in it. Taking regular baths could alleviate a number of ailments you’re suffering from. Once you’re in there, here are some healing things to add to your bath. Ginger Ginger has long been used to treat stomach ailments and fight off colds and flus. Adding ginger root to your bath can provide many of the same benefits. If you suffer from bloating, gas or digestive...

While wearing less clothing helps to keep you cool, it often means more skincare problems for many of us. As you get ready to head outdoors to enjoy the weather this season, win the bare skin battle by being prepared to prevent and treat every type of irritation, abrasion and bite that may come your way. Sunburn The most common and, to be perfectly honest, most preventable summer skin problem is sunburn. Even though we all know we need to wear sunscreen every single day , many of us blow it off until it’s too late and we’re rocking the lobster look. Not only does allowing yourself to get sunburnt increase your risk of skin cancer, but on a very superficial level, sun damage totally ages you. Aging gracefully is fabulous, aging prematurely is not. The American Academy of Dermatology recommends the use of a daily moisturizer wit...
