These are fresh face scrubs - meaning you make it, you use it or lose it. I suppose you could refrigerate for a bit, but not more than a day or so.

In my recent post; 23 Refillable Liquid Hand Soap Pumps, a reader (and cool blogger I know - Angelique) asked:

Following up on my new lip balm post… I said I’d be back to recommend products, so, here I am.

Here are some likely items:
Soap
Shampoo - conditioner
Loofah or sponge
Face cleaner

Most people I know have experimented with hair color at some point. It’s fine to want a new look or want to brighten an existing look but most commercial brands of hair color are unnatural and unkind to your hair. Worse, most hair coloring products are super bad for the planet.
Almost all the commercial brands […]
