Post Rally and A Melt & Pour Aloe Vera Soap Recipe

Last Saturday, I was at JomOiling Young Living Live Your Passion Rally at Dewan DUN Hulu Klang, AU2. I did 2 demos. One is a basic salve/balm recipe and the other is Aloe Vera Soap. I didn’t have the recipe print outs to give away so I promised that I will post the recipe on my social media.

Ingredients:

• 150g Soap Base also known as Melt & Pour soap base
• 1 teaspoon Shea butter (optional)
• 1 teaspoon Aloe Vera powder
• 8 drops of Lemon Essential oil
• 7 drops of Peppermint Essential oil

Note: I use Young Living Essential Oils.

Method:

1. Melt soap base and shea butter in a double boiler
2. Once melted, remove from heat and add in Aloe Vera powder
3. Add the essential oils
4. Pour into soap moulds

Easy peasy lemon squeezy! If you don’t have time to make them, check out my estore. I sell this soap for RM20 per 70g bar and RM50 for 3 x 70g bars.

I make small batches at a time so they are fresh and I don’t keep them on the shelf for long.

Here are some pictures during the rally:

Thank you Aishah for the picture. Me in action with shaky hands. Getting too old to do these stuff.

I’ve also made some lavarock diffuser bracelet for the Rally. I’ll be putting them up in the Estore for sale soon.

Signing off.

Rozi out!

NaturallyRozi at JomOiling's Live Your Passion Rally on Saturday, 7 April 2018

I stumbled into essential oils purely by accident. I had a date with my friend, Mastura one day and she let me sample YoungLiving’s Tranquil Roll On. I generously rolled it onto my wrist and fell in love with the scent. On my way home, I was stuck in a traffic jam but I notice I was not stressed and in fact was enjoying the ride as the Tranquil scent linger in the car. I knew I found something worth researching.

I was raving about Tranquil on my social media network and publicly announce my wishlist of getting one for myself. A friend who is also an Independent Distributor for YoungLiving saw my posts and she sent me a 5ml Lavender essential oil and her own blends of Pain Relief and Focus Blend. I totally loved them and I started to quiz her on YoungLiving and essential oils and what have you. Long story short, I signed up as an Independent Distributor in November 2017 and embark on this wonderful journey of many discoveries with essential oils. (Thank you Aishah! You can’t imagine what door you’ve opened for me!)

Me being the curious cat cannot settle with just diffusing and applying essential oils topically. I begin to look up on other ways people use essential oils in their day to day life and I’ve made my own blends, detox deodorant and facial soaps to name a few. That led to the birth of ‘NaturallyRozi’; apt don’t you think?

Anyway, my NaturallyRozi is going to have it’s first maiden booth appearance at JomOiling’s Live Your Passion Rally this Saturday, 7 April 2018 at Dewan DUN Hulu Kelang, Jalan AU2A, Taman Seri Keramat, Kuala Lumpur. There will be lots of activities and awareness on how to incorporate essential oils in your daily live and I will be doing a demo on making basic salve and a simple melt and pour soap. Check out the the information on the poster on how to obtain the tickets for the event. If you want to learn more about essential oils do mark your calendar and get your tickets. 

See you there!

New Packaging and Promotion for Detox Deodorant

I started with 15g detox deodorant sometime early this year and Alhamdulillah, it is well received. A bit about my detox deodorant; I took the recipe from pinterest and modified it to call it my own. Due to our tropical weather, the original recipe makes the deodorant soft in room temperature. I tweaked the recipe a few times to get it to be more solid. 

The main ingredients are coconut oil, beeswax, bentonite clay, baking soda, corn starch, vitamin E, grapefruit and peppermint essential oils.

Bentonite Clay has many benefits:

1. It absorbs odors

1. It absorbs toxins from the skin by creating a leaching effect around the under arm lymph nodes (where a lot of toxins are stored).

1. It extracts heavy metals from the skin.

1. It is calming and soothing to the skin (so no more under arm chaffing).

Bentonite Clay is a sedimentary volcanic ash that swells when it comes in contact with water.  “Once it becomes hydrated, the electrical and molecular components of the clay rapidly change and produce an ‘electrical charge’.”1 It is this negative electrical charge that will bond to the positive charge of toxins, absorbing them into the clay as it releases its nutrients.

Extracted from http://simplelifemom.com

Baking soda neutralizes and absorbs bad odour and corn starch absorbs moisture.

When I first made the deodorant, I had my son in mind. He loves peppermint so I incorporated peppermint and grapefruit essential oils in the deodorant to get that fresh scent. I use Young Living Essential Oils. 

They are available in my estore. To kick off the new packaging, I’m running a promotion where for every 2 x 50g detox deodorant purchased, you get a FREE 15g detox deodorant. This promotion is limited to the first 10 customers only so hurry and get yours today!
