I like to try new things, so I’m going to try giving my fave essays, products and books a shout out on this page each Sunday or Monday.

If you are like me the change in seasons does a number on your hands. That’s why I was delighted to try the Birthday Cake Hand Cream by Love By SW when she sent me a sample. I loved it and couldn’t wait to share it with you.
It smells like a birthday cake in a jar, but without the mess. The ingredients are truly mouthwatering: a dose of shea butter, coconut oil and sweet almond oil.
Added bonus: Instead of feeling heavy and sticky, the cream was so light and airy that it glossed my skin, imparting a subtle sheen that I tried to show in the picture above.
I love this hand cream (which is totally worth its $15 price tag) as well as all the rest of her products because they are all natural and made by love– Love By SW.
They arel:
- Gluten-free
- Vegan: Completely cruelty free, and no animal products are used.
- Organic Ingredients
- Made by Hand
- All Jars are made with 100% post-consumer plastic
Other fun (delicious smelling) natural options to try include Pumpkin Body Butter and Pumpkin Sugar Scrub (made with organic pumpkin seed oil and only available during the months of October and November).
You can also try Meg’s Cotton Candy and Coconut and Lime Sugar Scrub and Luscious Lemon Hand Cream,
She also offers a Holiday Gift Set of Whipped Peppermint, Orange with Frankincense & Myrrh and Vanilla. All creams can be purchased separately, or together.
Yay! I know what I’m getting my friends and family for the Holidays!
Disclosure: I received a sample of the hand cream, but all opinions here are my own.
What you might have missed last month
I wrote about my family connection to Julie Andrews for SheKnows
You know that vanilla has got to smell luscious. I am fantasizing that my husband is rubbing my feet with that, right now!
they sound (and I’m sure they smell) delicious – lucky you for getting to try a sample!
I think I may have to get that holiday set for my mom – and maybe one for me too!
Oh, the Whipped Peppermint sounds divine. Thanks for highlighting these hand creams on your blog.
I’m drooling just reading the names of those products! Never mind gifts – I’m putting these on my own holiday wish list too!
What a fun gift that would make for a friend! Thanks!!!
