In the hustle and bustle of daily life, it’s essential to carve out moments of relaxation and self-care. And per ushge, vegan, cruelty-free & earth-friendly bath and body treats always have my heart. I’ve recently become acquainted with Little Moon Essentials, and it’s been a delightful discovery. They offer mineral baths, sugar scrubs, body butters, essential oil blends, salves, and more, and everything is made with high quality, natural ingredients. (Heads up, the only non-vegan items are their lip balms which contain beeswax.) Most of their items are available in different sizes, which I think is wonderful, especially if you just wanna try something out. They’ve also partnered with rePurpose Global to help mitigate plastic from our shorelines… and this makes my heart smile.
Okay, before I go into the products I’ve tried, I just wanna say, my nose and body have been blissin’ out on these beautiful scents and formulas, no joke! All I ever use are natural, vegan beauty products so my nose is used to ALL kinds of beautiful, earthly, divine scents, but y’all, these are some of the best! C’mon, scratch n’ sniff tech, it’s 2023 (almost ’24), WE READY!
The Goods:
Letting Go Mineral Bath:
This lovely blend has cleansing, detoxing, and muscle & skin-soothing properties. This would make for a delicious treat after a long run or strenuous workout sesh. Also, if you’re experiencing dry, itchy skin, this will bring you some much needed relief – This should be a winter essential! It has a lovely fall, slightly spicy yet minty scent, and it feels sooooo good to soak in.
Ingredients: Epsom Salt, American Mineral Salt, Sea Salt, Organic Ginger Powder, Lavender Oil, Peppermint Oil, Nutmeg Oil
Sleep Comes Easy Mineral Bath:
For those nights when sleep seems elusive, the Sleep Comes Easy Mineral Bath is a dream come true. The calming properties of essential oils like lavender, chamomile, and bergamot create a serene atmosphere that prepares your mind and body for a restful night. It feels like a gentle goodnight hug luring you toward a peaceful slumber. Looove the glass packaging and of course, the adorable branding. These are definitely gift-worthy!
Ingredients: Epsom Salt, American Mineral Salt, Sea Salt, Lavender Oil, Frankincense Oil, Lemon Oil, Bergamot Oil, Palmarosa Oil, Vetiver Oil, Coriander Oil, Roman Chamomile Oil
Peaceful Forest Lotion:
This lotion legit smells like you’re forest bathing in the Pacific Northwest. Infused with invigorating scents of fir, cypress, and spruce, this lotion not only hydrates your skin but also transports you to a tranquil sanctuary in the woods. The lightweight formula absorbs quickly, leaving your skin feeling soft and nourished, with a renewed sense of calm. I need to order the body butter version of this STAT!
Ingredients: Water, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Safflower Seed Oil, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Glycerin, Cetyl Alcohol, Glyceryl Stearate Citrate, Fir Oil, Cetearyl Olivate, Sorbitan Olivate, Cypress Oil, Spruce Oil, Rosemary Oil, Cinnamon Oil, Spearmint Oil, Cardamom Oil, Panthenol, Tocopheryl Acetate, Xanthan Gum, Lactic Acid, Benzyl Alcohol, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Benzoate
Winter Spice Body Butter:
As obsessed I am with this brand, THIS body butter takes the cake! The rich, creamy texture feels luxurious on the skin, and the comforting aroma of festive spices, cocoa, and sweetness, makes it the perfect companion for cozy winter nights. I will be slathering this magic deliciousness all over every inch of mah bod daily until until it’s gone, 100%. LOOOOOOVE.
Ingredients: Organic Shea Butter, Jojoba Oil, Fair Trade Organic Coconut Oil, Fair Trade Organic Cocoa Butter, Vegetable Glycerin, Cetearyl Alcohol, Arrowroot Powder, Mulling Spice Flavoring, Vanilla Flavoring, Mica, Cinnamon Oil
Sleep Comes Easy Body Butter:
This obvs pairs beautifully with Sleep Comes Easy mineral bath mentioned earlier. 🙂 This velvety and thick body butter, with the same scent profile as the mineral bath, legit helps signal your body to unwind. I often like to use straight up lavender oil before bed (either using a pillow mist or EO roller ball), but this particular bedtime blend is extra dreamy. The chamomile really pokes through on this one, providing a gentle sweetness to it. Also, I want to mention that with these body butters, a little bit goes a looonnng way, which makes this a steal for $20!
Little Moon Essentials has truly mastered the art of blending natural ingredients to create products that elevate your self-care routine. I’m mega looking forward to smelling like a Winter Spice Girl for the rest of this holiday season, and I’m most definitely gonna treat myself to some of their other goodies in the near future… “Tired Old Ass” body butter is a-callin’ my name, haha!
