deliciously organic

I have some incredible collaborations this week to share with you all, including some giveaways and other goodies. Tonight's post is something I've been super excited for, for over a month. Follow along to read about my latest obsession!

 I came across Sweet Poppy Boutique through Instagram (@sweetpoppyboutique) and instantly knew that I hit GOLD. The shop owner, Cornelia, is the sweetest and hand-makes everything from organic bath and body essentials to knitted baby blankets. ALL of the items on her website are Gluten-Free! My sister has Celiac Disease so it's awesome to know that she can use these products too! Her work is professional and every item is uniquely made with all-natural ingredients--which is super important to me, knowing that everything I'm putting on and in my body is affecting the baby!

Coffee&CoCo Sugar Scrub:


Where's my coffee lovers? When I found out that Sweet Poppy Boutique carried a coffee sugar scrub, I knew I had to have it. I don't drink coffee but I'm totally a coffee smelling junkie (just ask my husband, haha). So if you're like me, I promise that you need this in your life! It smells divine and it's the perfect combination of a moisturizing yet cleansing scrub. It leaves my skin feeling super soft and I get to smell like coffee, so it's a win-win. ;) Also guys, prepared to be blown away... you can have 4 fl oz worth of a sugar scrub for only $6!

Raspberry Sugar Scrub:

The Raspberry Sugar Scrub is not only the most heavenly-smelling bath essential I've EVER owned, but all of Cornelia's fruit sugar scrubs have raw honey, pure sugar cane, vinatmin E oil, organic coconut oil, and ground dried raspberries (or mango, which is also a choice on her site)! It's such a good feeling to know that I know every single ingredient of this natural product that is being put on my body. This scent goes out of stock the quickest, so be sure to watch the website closely and snag as many as you can!

This is how large the 4 fl oz cans are. I can't believe they're only $6!
The thing that I love the most about these scrubs is that they are the perfect combination of moisturizing and cleansing. I've tried many (many, many, many) exfoliators in my lifetime due to sensitive skin, and my skin has reacted wonderfully with these. I can't get enough of them, I'm going to have to re-order before I run out so I don't have to go through withdrawals!

Snickerdoodle Body Butter:


As you can see, although I shot these photos not even a few days after recieving my package I had already dug into this body butter. Guys, Snickerdoodle is seriously my favorite cookie on earth. And even if it's not your fave, you have to give this body butter a try--because it's the bomb! When you first open it up, it feels a little hard but doesn't take much pressure to yield to your finger tips. As you rub it on your skin, it melts into perfection and leaves you feeling SO soft. 

I'm sooo excited to try the Baby's Bum Butter for my little one, because the adult body butter makes my skin feel like a baby's!





Last but not least, Cornelia sent me an Orange Dreamsicle Bath Bomb. Before I got pregnant, baths honestly weren't my thing. I think I just got used to the repetitive motions of showering and never went back to baths. But now, I looooove them! They soothe my skin and calm any worries I'm having, and bath bombs make the bathing experience 100x's better. I haven't tried the Orange Dreamsicle Bath Bomb yet, but I plan to soak with it tomorrow and I will update you then!

I love how her bath bombs are packaged with adorable twine, and I also love that it's organic like all of her other products.



What I loved most about Sweet Poppy Boutique's products (other than their smells, SERIOUSLY guys) is that you recieve hand-crafted, organic products for a super low cost. Cornelia is the most caring shop owner I've ever met. If you're a fan of supporting small family businesses please give Sweet Poppy Boutique a try! You will be just as hooked as I am!

I know everyone's been saying this, but this summer has flown by! For me, I think it's because I've stayed indoors more than past summers due to the added heat that my babe's producing. Also, the hubs has been on-call a lot for work, and that prevents us from taking spontaneous trips (which we definitely miss!) but I'm sooo grateful to Scott for all of his hard work. I'm so excited for the adventures we have coming our way and I'm super grateful for all of YOU!
