And stay tuned, my Summer Sauce Sunblock that smells like heaven will be brewed up on the next Full Moon (as all my batches are!) Thanks and have a wonderful weekend!!

Happy Spring everybody! Currently blending a batch of Simmer Down, my ultra-effective balm for bone and muscle ailments. I've been making, using, and sharing this recipe for many years, and I'm still amazed at how well it works! Sore knees, feet, hands? Have you been running, skiing, working, and you don't want to feel like you were hit by a truck? SIMMER DOWN. Also useful if you were hit by a truck. Which is hopefully just a joke... When I get them uploaded to Etsy, I'll post a link, but you can get them here first with an e-transfer :) Still the same price and size, no greedflation! $20 for 50ml brown glass jar and $35 for 100ml brown glass jar... TRY IT.

Good Morning Humans! It's been a minute since I made a batch of deodorant, but the time has come again to make some tasty treats for your armpitters! I'll be blending up the usual favourite of lavender (plus 2 secret essential oils), and I'll also be making a "Forest" blend which will be cedar (plus 2 secret oils). As always, most ingredients are organic, fair trade, and very high quality. If you've never tried my deodorant, now's the time, this batch is going to be mighty fine ;) Please let me know if you'd like a small or large jar by PMing me or commenting below, it helps me figure out which blend I should make more of and jar sizes. Your support is greatly appreciated friends!! Have a beautiful Sunday!

Good Morning Everybody! It's time for me to make a fresh batch of essential oil-based insect repellent in a soothing organic witch hazel base to keep the mosquitoes and black flies at bay! It works and it smells GOOOOOD. It can also be used as an after bite healer if you forgot to put it on ahead of time ;)

120ml for $12 or 250ml for $20. Comes in a brown UV-proof PET bottle. Shipping is extra, but I can possibly deliver it somewhere near you also.

You can message me here with your order or place it through Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/471466841/force-fields-natural-insect-repellent?ref=shop_home_active_3

Thanks for supporting small businesses who make great products for living well!

Spring is here!! And the bugs are on their way :/ I'll soon be making my 2017 batch of "Forcefields", an all-natural, DEET-FREE, organic witch hazel-based, essential oil insect repellent very soon :D

Will repel mosquitoes, black flies, houseflies, wasps, mice, and more! You can even spray it around your house doors, windows, and openings if you're having insect-related issues at home. It smells GOOD and FRESH.

Pre-ordering helps me decide how much to make, plus you get it for less cash this way... $18 for a 250mL UV-resistant #1 PETE brown plastic shatter-resistant spray bottle which should last you all year unless you're in the woods all the time. $15 for the second bottle if you order them together.

Can be sprayed directly on your skin or clothes every 2 hours as necessary.

*Formulated for adults, kids under 12 would require a diluted version, which I can make on request. Not for people with epilepsy or pregnant/nursing women.

THANKS! and HAPPY SPRING!!!

Healthy skin is the product of a healthy environment, inside and outside of what you perceive to be the edges of your self, or your skin. Start transforming your skin (and mind, body, soul) with fresh, clean water! Do you need 8 glasses/day? Probably not, but make sure you're getting enough because water cleanses your body of toxins and hydrates everything including your skin! Do you ever get chapped lips? That's most often caused by dehydration. (Personally, I choose to filter my water with a portable, apartment-friendly Berkey gravity-fed filtration system, it took me a while to save up for it, but it's been worth every penny!) How do you make sure you're getting clean water to maintain your health?? Share your clean water tips with us :D If you want to go a step further, you could support your local water protectors or get involved directly by doing things like forest/shoreline clean-ups... Please share if you do!

More info soon to come on easy, natural, healthy skin care, but for now, here's a reminder from David Suzuki on what nasty ingredients to avoid in the skin care products that you choose to consume with your skin and body... Avoid these dirty dozen and do yourself, your family, and the planet a huge favour :D Happy Weekend! Be kind to your self

'Dirty Dozen' cosmetic chemicals to avoid From shampoos, to soaps, to lotions, to makeup - it's not uncommon for a single person to use 10 or more personal care products each day. Do you know what kind of chemicals are in yours?

Hi ALL! So just in case you tried to make a purchase from the Etsy shop but saw an outrageous local shipping pick-up rate, I want you to know that that was a mistake based on how Etsy calculates shipping fees, but now I've set up a PROMO CODE for FREE local pick ups for people living in Toronto or Barrie! Just ask for the code, and I'll send it to you :D THANKS!
