  • ESSENTIAL OILS x ESSENTIAL OBSESSION

    ESSENTIAL OILS x ESSENTIAL OBSESSION

    oils-1
    I’ve always had an interest in health and wellness solutions found in nature.  This year, I developed a {healthy} obsession with essential oils.  One of my 2017 Resolutions is to turn to all things holistic first.

    2016 was my first year using oils.  The results have motivated me to utilize oils in my daily routines.  I wake up to an oil blend called Burst {citrus + mint} diffusing through my room; it gets my day started on the right foot… full of energy and happiness.  I inhale a combination of lavender + frankincense in moments of overwhelm for an instant sense of calm.  I fall asleep to the scent of Unwind {lavender + bergamot} on my pillow for a deeper and more restful sleep.

    I’ve found that my overall mood has improved; I feel more focused, calmer, happier, and more energetic.

    If you’re looking to start your year off on a hippie-dippie granola-mermaid kind of a kick {and who wouldn’t want that?} by bathing your body and senses in essential oils… I’m offering my readers {as a thank you for another great year together!} a coupon code for the best oils I’ve found.

    Enter the code EXCLUSIVE20 at checkout to receive 20% off any of the oils, diffusers, or essential oil kits on the site.

    I rarely use this blog as a platform for social change… but today is one of those days when I feel the need to encourage our generation (Millennials, I’m talking to you!) to give back.  Let’s NOT be known as the self-absorbed, entitled, and selfish generation… let’s be known as the generation that didn’t just insist on change, but actually facilitated that change.

    I’m ready to walk the walk.  I urge you to join me.

    Let’s be a part of the solution.

  • PERFUME OIL GIVEAWAY – MALIA B.

    PERFUME OIL GIVEAWAY – MALIA B.

    malia-b
    Blonder Ambitions and Malia B. (a perfume oil line run by one seriously inspiring babe) are partnering to bring you a perfume giveaway.

    What is a perfume oil?  It’s a blend of pure essential oils and exotic perfume essences that are alcohol free (they are also paraben, phthalate, sulphate, and cruelty-free).  Those of you who know me personally know that I’m a nut for essential oils (I purchase mine here)… so to be able to utilize the power of oils in a perfume is something that I stand behind.

    The three scents in the Malia B. line are all ultra-feminine, uplifting, and unique.

    Luv Perfume Oil has notes of white flowers, gardenias and vanilla.  Soul Perfume Oil has papaya, pineapple, and creamy coconut notes.  Malia Perfume Oil has jasmine and florals with a fresh top green note.

    To win a perfume oil of your choice from Malia B.:

    1. Follow @maliabperfumes and @blonderambitions on Instagram.

    2. Like this photo on Instagram and tag a friend on Instagram by using the “@” symbol and their Insta name to gain one (1) entry

    3. All entries must be submitted by 12/19 10pm PST. The winner will be announced and notified on 12/20.
