I recently had the opportunity to receive a couple of natural products to prepare winter-weary skin for summer styles form our new friends at Good Earth Beauty. I have to say I really love these products! The Body Scrub-Exfoliating Shower Whip Coconut Lime smells too good! I received a spa tub of this amazing product and I loved it so much that it is already gone!  It polished away dirt and dead skin but it was so foamy and gentle enough to use everyday! It contains fine-powdered Volcanic Ash, which is said to be one of the best Exfoliants on Earth.

About Pomchies: It all started with scraps! Pomchies were invented while trying to figure out a way to use the scraps from a swimwear factory. Heather Logan, Pomchies owner, had been selling children’s sun protective swimwear and the factory in Austrailia searched for a way to use left-over fabric. Scraps don’t work anymore but the Pomchie idea certainly does! Now we are purchasing fabric by the container load and have expanded the Pomchie line to include Pom-ID’s, Pom-shoes, Pom-Keys, Spirit Band-it headbands, Team-Twist braided bracelets, and Pom-Braid and Double Pom-Braid braided headbands. We have endless ideas on ways to use the Pomchie products, color combinations to meet every request, and many new products on the way! For more information visit www.pomchies.com.
