Destiny Candle!!!



Last year I attended BeautyCon here in Los Angeles, where I had the pleasure of meeting Karen Michelle who is the owner of Destiny Candle. I was given a candle of my choice and ended up writing a blog post on it which I will link here.
Fast forward to a year later and Destiny Candle is going strong and continuing to grow into an amazing candle company.  I was lucky enough to be sent one of their "Calm" candles that is scented with some of my absolute favorite essential oils.  In a trio of scented bliss, they combine Lavender, Frankincense, and Grapefruit.
Absolute heaven! Of course the best thing about the candles is you can use them as moisturizing body oil. Talk about getting into the "calm" zone. After a long day at work I love to light it up and put it next to my bathtub. The scent is seriously relaxing.
Here is my "Calm" candle before I lit it.

 
In the particular candle I received there is a charm valued at anywhere from $10- $10,000 dollars.
You can see the charm peeking out here in this picture

My Natural Spot Treatment for blemishes !

I've been trying this method out for quite some time now and I thought I would share it. Even though I know that there are tons of posts and videos on it but I thought what the heck. I found this recipe a while back on a blog. Check it out here: http://dreamcalluna.wordpress.com/2013/04/22/diy-tea-tree-oil-acne-treatment/

 Lavender and Tea tree oil have been used forever for various things including skin care. The combination of the two just adds a little more of a punch to those annoying pimples/zits that can pop up here and there. 
Tea tree oil works well on acne, pimples, dark spots and any sort of cut or burn. Lavender is antibacterial and can help reduce redness around the area. Adding some distilled water simply cuts down on the potency of the oils. 

So this DIY just involves three items:



                             Distilled water                                            

Lavender & Tea Tree Essential Oils
both from Vitacost.com 
Lavender 1 oz.$6.49
Tea Tree 1 oz. - $5.99

               

Glass bottle dispenser with dropper
1 oz. from Sprouts - $1.99

Measuring cup (for a mess free pour)

Simply add one ounce of water to the container and then add 10 drops of Tea tree and 5 drops of lavender. Stir and then close bottle and shake. Shake before each use as well :)
