Best of the Year articles are always fun to write. It gives me an opportunity to look at what’s been successful, what people have enjoyed the most, and what you may want more of. This year I’ve focused again on the Best Handmade Beauty Products, because it gets back to the Simple Life Mom goal of keeping things simple and healthy, which learning a life changing skill for you and your family.
I love being able to make my family things that they use every day. Soap, shampoo, deodorant, tooth paste, as well as foods from scratch filled with healthy herbs and veggies are items that I know will not just give the what they want, but what they need to stay strong and healthy.
Teaching my children these life skills means they will take the best handmade beauty products, bath products, and foods into their own families too. Even learning how to make one thing that you use regularly means being able to provide for yourself. It’s one step in the right direction!
