Each of these black bird-shaped soaps is made from natural, locally-sourced Louisiana ingredients. Wash, wash, wash your hands to reveal a white ceramic bird handmade by the artist. It’s no surprise that the purchase of the soap is a 50% donation to the BP Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill Disaster recovery efforts.

As soon as Anabela mentioned the perfume oil she’d purchased from Long Winter Farm, I knew I had to check this place out because she always finds the best perfumes. And I’m so, so glad I did. I picked up a roll-on Black Coconut for myself as well as a tube of Earl Grey lip balm (which they appear to be out of at the moment). I’m wearing the perfume oil for the first time today and keep catching sweet whiffs of summer. The lip balm has been living in my fridge between uses and feels divine and cool when I put it on. It also stands up to high temps, I can attest to this because it spent a steaming 105 degree day in my mailbox. I’m already eyeing Campfire for fall along with everything else for Christmas gifts – it’s all ridiculously affordable and unique.

Not exaaactly a CMYK palette, but it will be once I try it on my own nails later this week. Crossing my fingers that I have the patience to sit still while it dries! (via Jenci)
Posted In beauty bagIt’s the day after Memorial Day and you know what that means, the unofficial start of summer is upon us. Right now my hair hangs just below my clavicle and I have blunt cut bangs. I wear it simple and straight, but since my hair has a bit of a wave to it there’s a process involved. Namely drying and straightening. And even though that only takes about fifteen minutes, it just isn’t always a time investment I want to make. You see, I get a bad case of the Lazy Hair come summer. No muss, no fuss, hopefully off of my face and neck. Instead of just pulling it back into the messy bun I’m always guilty of, I’m hoping for a little more from myself this June through September. Here are a few hairstyles I’ve bookmarked that look manageable and easy.
