Monthly Obsessions: 1114 Edition

NMO1

Rabbit. Rabbit. Rabbit.

It’s the first of December! Thanksgiving is over and Christmas is around the corner, but before I go into full leftover turkey coma, I figure I should share my November favorites.

Swedish Dream | Sea Aster Soap
NMO5
Made in USA

If you didn’t already know, I’m obsessed with Swedish Dream soap. I even wrote an entire blog post about it, proclaiming my uninhibited love and devotion. Its pretty serious.

This Sea Aster Soap is the newest addition to the Swedish Dream family and boasts anti-inflammatory benefits, while still maintaining moisture. To be quite honest, the fragrance of this soap is quite a bit stronger than the others, but it’s still one of my favorite.

Wild Friends | Vanilla Espresso Almond Butter
NMO8

– All-Natural
– Non-GMO
– Dairy Free
– Kosher

This little package of deliciousness is my go-to emergency hunger eliminator. Packed with protein and with a kick of espresso, its bound to pick you right up. Its non-perishable and can be conveniently tucked away for future use.

Seasnax | Wasabi
NMO9
Product of Korea

Sometimes, you just need a little wasabi in your life, and what better way than in a seaweed snack! Plus it’s not only tasty, it’s also contains antioxidants which can help prevent inflammation.

So, make sure you eat your seaweed children!

Real Techniques | Nic’s Picks
NMO3
NMO2
Ethically Made in China

– 100% Cruelty Free

I’m personally a big fan of the Real Techniques make-up brushes. They are reasonably priced, of superior quality, and based on my experience, do not shed.

I’ve been swooning over this brush set in particular for months due to its sleek design and functionality; and as always, when I finally purchased it, I was not disappointed.

LAVANILA Laboratories | Pure Vanilla Deodorant
NMO7
Made in USA

– 100% All-Natural
– Vegan

– Paraben Free
– Sulfate Free
– No Animal Testing
– No Petrochemicals
– No Phthalates
– No Silicones

So, I’m particular about deodorant. Surprise, surprise.. I know. For the longest time I used L’Occitane Aromachologie Purifying Deodorant until it was discontinued.

Since then, I’ve tried several different natural brands and have been disappointed. By sheer curiosity and impulse, I purchased the Pure Vanilla Mini Deodorant Duo and as luck would have it, its the best deodorant I’ve ever used. Go figure.
