DIY Lavender Body Scrub

February 9, 2020 by Shellie Wilson Leave a Comment

This lovely handmade DIY lavender sugar scrub is the perfect solution for dry hands, feet and body! Soothe your senses with a homemade sugar scrub with lavender buds that doubles up as a moisturizer! You can grab the full recipe here. This scrub is perfect for helping children to fall a sleep or for insomnia in teens and adults.

DIY body scrubs are a great way to give handmade gifts to friends, family, and even yourself. Not only are they thoughtful presents, but they also have a variety of beneficial effects on the skin. Body scrubs can help to exfoliate, moisturize, and nourish the skin, giving it a healthy glow.

Exfoliating with a body scrub helps to remove dead skin cells and any impurities that can lead to a dull complexion. By removing these elements, body scrubs help to reveal softer, smoother skin and a brighter complexion. They can also help to reduce the appearance of acne and prevent ingrown hairs.

In addition to exfoliating, body scrubs can also help to nourish the skin and lock in moisture. Many body scrubs are made with natural oils, such as coconut, jojoba, or almond, which can help to replenish the skin and protect it from dryness. These oils are also rich in antioxidants, which can help to fight the signs of aging.

Finally, DIY body scrubs are an excellent way to relax and unwind. The act of scrubbing the skin with a body scrub can be incredibly therapeutic, and many scrubs are made with essential oils that can help to relieve stress and create a calming atmosphere.

Overall, DIY body scrubs can be a great way to give a handmade gift that is both thoughtful and beneficial to the recipient’s skin. They can help to exfoliate, nourish, and moisturize the skin, while also providing relaxation and stress relief.

Perimenopause Calm Down Coloring Sheets (For When You Want to Scream into a Pillow)

Free Printable Downloads for Women 40+ Navigating the Hormonal Rollercoaster

Let’s be real—there are days when being a woman over 40 feels like riding a hormone-fueled tilt-a-whirl without the safety bar. Welcome to perimenopause, my friends. If you’ve ever found yourself sweating while standing in front of the fridge, crying over a puppy food commercial, or forgetting why you walked into a room (again), you’re in good company.

That’s exactly why I created these Perimenopause Calm Down Coloring Sheets—printable pages made especially for those “I swear if someone breathes near me I’m going to scream” moments.

What Are Calm Down Sheets?

These aren’t your typical mandala coloring pages. Nope. These were lovingly illustrated with women in perimenopause and menopause in mind—think messy buns, mood swings, and a whole lot of caffeine. Each sheet includes relatable cartoons, cheeky quotes, and stress-relieving doodles that are way more satisfying to color than pretending you’re fine.

They’re perfect for:

Rage coloring during a hot flash

Cooling down after snapping at your partner for chewing too loudly

Unwinding with a glass of wine and a pack of colored pencils

Quiet moments when your brain fog lifts just enough to enjoy something creative

Why Coloring Helps During Perimenopause

There’s science behind this, promise. Coloring helps lower cortisol levels, focus your mind, and gently ease anxious thoughts. It’s like a mindfulness practice, but one that doesn’t require Lycra or a meditation app subscription. And let’s be honest—when the world feels a bit much, giving a snarky mug or frazzled cartoon woman a splash of lavender and hot pink is downright cathartic.
