Soft Soap is known for its moisturizing hand soaps and body washes. Now they have a new Liquid Hand Soap – Decor Collection line. This Decor Collection features lovely packaging to help dress up your sink. It is like buying designer/specialty soaps without the designer price tag. The line currently includes three scents. They are:

If you’re doing a little last minute shopping for friends, family, or yourself, remember that beauty products make great gifts. Mary Kay had great selection of makeup and cleansing products. [Read more…]

As you gear up for the winter with new sweaters, coats, scarves, and gloves, don’t forget to protect your skin with the proper cleansing and lotion products!
Your skin has a big job to do. It’s your largest organ, covering your entire body, and it’s responsible for keeping a protective barrier between you and the outside world, as well as keeping a vital moisture balance inside your body.
Lots of things can weaken this protective barrier, like drying cleansers, winter weather, low humidity and some skin conditions. Once that happens, you may have more dryness, itching, redness, flaking, and eventually painful cracking of your skin. At best, this process can lead to a rough, red, unpleasant skin texture. At worst, severely damaged and inflamed skin can get out of control and provide a portal for bacteria.
What makes accént® products different is Protease Technology, a unique blend of plant-based enzymes, combined with amino acids and advanced moisturizers, to help hydrate and nourish dry, flaky skin and promote soft, smooth, healthy-looking skin.1-5
accént® products are also mild and gentle enough to be used as often as desired anywhere on the face as well as the body. They are paraben-free, propylene glycol-free, gluten-free, non-irritating, non-drying and non-comedogenic (will not block pores). With only one wash and one moisturizing lotion for daily use, accént® is a cleansing and moisturizing system that couldn’t be simpler.
You can find accént® products at your local CVS/Pharmacy and at Drugstore.com.

It’s time for part 2 of our post series brought to you by Arm & Hammer. This month’s theme is Bedtime with Arm & Hammer. Members of the Arm & Hammer Influencer Network received a great little package (pictured above) with products to help me get ready for bedtime. Included in my package were two products from Arm & Hammer: the Spinbrush ProClean Sonic and a tube of Sensitive Toothpaste from the makers of Orajel.
As someone who’s had her fair share of dental problems, I was really excited to try out the Spinbrush. The Spinbrush ProClean Sonic is clinically proven to remove up to 95% of plaque in hard-to-reach places, and its dynamic fluid action cleans in between teeth. It also has bristles that fade over time, so you know when to change it out, and they have replaceable heads, so you do not have to buy a whole new unit every time. Plus, the Spinbrush comes with a free refill head, saving you even more money and time before you have to buy replacements!
I was also happy to try Arm & Hammer Sensitive from the makers of Orajel. I have the occasional tooth sensitivity and pain, so I like using toothpastes that are especially for sensitivity. Arm & Hammer Sensitive is great for this, taking care of tooth and nerve sensitivity. It is a maximum strength product with flouride for anticavity protection, and baking soda for whitening. Since it’s made with baking soda, it does have a bit of baking soda aftertaste, but it is not too overwhelming, and it also has mint flavors that covers up some of the baking soda taste.
All in all, I was happy with both of these products and would definitely recommend them to you and your family.

Disclosure: I’m a member of the Arm & Hammer Influencer Network. I received products for review and compensation for this post. The opinions are my own.
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Cottonelle.
Bathroom habits aren’t usually a topic we discuss here at Simply Sweet Home, but Cottonelle is partnering up with journalist Cherry Healy to encourage everyone to talk about their bathroom routines and their bums, and today I’m joining the conversation. You can also join the conversation by checking out the Cottonelle Facebook page.
The Cottonelle Care Routine revolves around two products: Cottonelle FreshCare Flushable Cleansing Cloths and Cottonelle Ultra ComfortCare Tissue.
Have you ever used wipes? If you have not, then the idea of using these may seem a little odd at first, but after you get used to the idea, the use of the product becomes second nature, just like using a moist towelette to clean your hands. And come to think of it, if you use baby wipes for your baby’s bottom, why stop when they are out of diapers? We should all be able to feel fresh and clean.
The Cottonelle wipes are really great! They have a nice, clean scent. They are thick and strong but also have a soft texture, and they really leave you feeling refreshed and very clean. Cottonelle has also made recent improvements to the product packaging for their wipes. Unlike other wipes that come in a container similar to baby wipes, their new containers are more like a canister, which blends in better with the bathroom decor. And because the new product packaging allows for the wipes to pulled out of the top so that air doesn’t get to them, they won’t dry out. So that means no waste!
You will also love Cottonelle toilet paper. It has a great texture, and is strong and thick, so you don’t have to use a lot. Again, no waste!
Go to your local grocery store and other retailers to find Cottonelle flushable wipes and toilet paper, so you can get that extra clean and fresh feeling every day!
Cottonelle wants to get you talking about your bum and on a better way to clean “down there” by using the Cottonelle Clean Routine. By combining the use of Cottonelle Toilet Paper and Cottonelle Flushable Cleansing Cloths, the Cottonelle Clean Routine is a revolutionary way to keep your bum cleaner.
Are you ready? Don’t be shy! Visit http://www.facebook.com/cottonelle to learn more about the Cottonelle Clean Routine and join the clean routine conversation.

Spring is finally here! And I’m really excited to leave my sweaters in closet and break out my cute spring wardrobe! But as the hot summer approaches, I have to think more and more about my skincare regimen. It is always so hot and muggy here, that just going outside for a short time can make my skin break out. For this reason, I try to stay indoors as much as possible and cling to my computer! (Haha.) But even I have to go outside sometimes, so I am very happy to add Olay Fresh Effects to my skincare routine. [Read more…]
As you know, I love beauty and skincare! I recently had the chance to try some of the latest luxury skin care products from b·liv by Cellnique.
I received the Glow and Shine skin smoothening mask. This is a really great product. It cleanses, polishes and moisturizes your skin, and it also exfoliates, unclogs poors, and reduces shine and scars. It has a smooth, creamy texture and a very natural and pleasant smell.
I also love it because you can apply and immediately rinse if you’re in a hurry, or you can apply it as a mask and leave on for five to minutes minutes. And after you scrub and rinse, your skin is left feeling smooth and refreshed.
I also got to try their Off With Those Heads Blackhead Serum. This gel helps to unclog pores, remove oil, and get rid of blackheads and white heads. And it leaves your skin with a clean, cooling sensation.
I really like this product. It only takes a small tab on your forehead and other areas that are prone to get blackheads. When you first start using the product, you may see more oil secretion than normal, but this should just tell you that it’s working.
They also offer a moisturizing gel called Quench Me. This is a great product to use after exfoliating or on top of the spot treatment to keep your skin from over drying. It also has antioxidants and anti-aging properties and helps to retain and replenish moisture.
As someone with combination skin, I really like this product. My skin sometimes dries and flakes when I treat it, and this is a great product to prevent that, while still being able to treat acne and oily skin.
And last but not least, I received their Spots Got Shot blemish serum treatment. It helps to clear up pimples, reduce oil, and unclog pores. It also has antioxidant and antibacterial properties. This is a really great product. I’ve used it to treat a few acne spots, and it’s cleared them up faster and more effectively than other products I’ve tried.
Overall I was pleased with all the products. They were very effective at treating my skin.
