I received this box in the mail the other day and, once I got over the initial disappointment that it wasn’t filled with donuts, I was overcome with gratitude for the delicious scents and blissful feeling that only come with handmade gifts.
These gorgeous all-natural bath and body products from Moxxie Essential Care may be the only things that get me through the holidays with my sanity intact.
In fact, I immediately spritzed the air with the Lavender and Rosemary Mist which instantly relaxed me and made it a pleasure to take a deep, calming breath.
Moxxie, a name I love because I think it so defines midlife women, is the kind of company I’m happy to support because their products are 100% plant-based, cruelty-free and vegan-friendly. And because they feel so luxurious. They don’t just work on your body; they clear your mind.
I wish you could smell this Peppermint Solid Sugar Scrub through the computer.
I may actually carry it in my purse so I can take a quick whiff next time someone cuts me off or steals the one spot left in the mall parking lot.
Although I’m not a bar soap person, I have pretty much fallen in love with these artisan soaps. They have character, you can tell they were lovingly handcrafted and they smell sooo good.
All of Moxxie’s bath and body care products smell good because they’re filled with ingredients like lemongrass and oatmeal rather than chemicals no one can pronounce. I’ll admit they’ve made my shower time longer because I can’t bring myself to get out of that spa-like environment. I’m definitely going to have to try them in a bath, where they can be savored in the manner they deserve.
These are perfect gifts for the women in your life — and the type that begs for you to buy “one for you, one for me.” Knowing that, Moxxie conveniently has holiday gift sets on sale now and is even offering free shipping today.
What could be better than giving your friends a little Moxxie?

Artisan style bath products are the best. I have tiny children, so I only get a shower about once every few weeks or so (or at least it feels like it) so I want it to be the best it can be! Bring on the Moxxie!
Ann Bacciaglia says
This is a product i would love to try. I will have to order some for gifts and some for myself.

This stuff looks just yummy and I love the name too!
Janie Emaus says
I’d love a box filled with all these products. Along with my own personal masseuse.
Amanda Ripsam says
I think soap reviews are great because I have fair sensitive skin and break out so easily with soaps that have dyes or fragrances which is why I love product testing because I get to try it out before I buy it. I did a review for a soap site one time and I loved the soap but this box is pretty and it probably smells so good.
Rebekah says
Hahaha I’m always disappointed my packages aren’t filled with doughnuts too! 😛 These products look great – you definitely have me curious with how you described their scents.
Cathy Chester says
I am trying to learn more about essential oils for ME, okay and for my audience. 🙂 They can do so much. For instance when I get a headache I always apply peppermint oil to my temples! Your descriptions sound so yummy, Lois. I have to try some more!
Janeane Davis says
There are great items in this gift box As you stated, it is a gift that you give and a gift that you give to yourself.

Ooooh you do make it sound good. I’d love to try the artisan soap!

My skin could use a little pampering. This cold weather is already taking it’s toll.
