GIVEAWAY: The Joy of Soap

February 15, 2010 by Jessica Dougherty 75 Comments

The Joy of Soap features natural soaps that are hand crafted, hand cut and hand wrapped in small batches, using certified organic oils, therapeutic grade essential oils and ingredients that are gentle on your skin. I recently had the pleasure of sampling several soaps, all featuring fun names. My favorite was Elizabeth’s Wild Hair Shaving Soap which left my skin feeling so smooth. I also enjoyed Feeling Frisky which smelled fantastic and my husband loved the Manly Man soap. Due to high demand, The Joy of Soap is working to develop bath and body products that help you to develop your own daily cleansing and bathing rituals using gentle and nourishing oils and botanicals that leave skin clean, refreshed and rejuvenated. The Joy of Soap is a certified cruelty-free and vegan soap company – approved by PETA standards. They also maintain a set of Green Practices and continually strive to become more green as they grow and find new suppliers and partners.

*GIVEAWAY – Closed – Congratulations Claudette Soucy: The Joy of Soap is generously offering one lucky winner a $40 GIFT CERTIFICATE. To enter, visit The Joy of Soap website & leave a comment on this post noting at least one product you would like to try. Giveaway ends at Midnight EST, Monday, March 1st.

    Gorgeous soaps!
    I would love the Elizabeth’s Wild Hair shaving soap. The willow bark extract is a fabulous addition.
    I would also try the Manly Man and All Night Almond soaps for their exfoliating qualities.

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.
