DANI Naturals Skincare Review

DANI Naturals makes all-natural, vegan skincare inspired by the high desert. They craft everything from lotions and body washes to bath bombs and reed diffusers with eco-friendly ingredients.

*Disclaimer: These products were sent to See, Shop, Love! in exchange for an honest review.

DANI Naturals was founded in 1996 in Bend, Oregon with a single product: a handmade, natural soap. They've expanded to a full bath, body, and home line and are still going strong 20 years later! Their mission is to create products with only the purest ingredients to refresh and nourish the body and soul.

DANI Naturals products are Leaping Bunny-certified cruelty-free and free from sulfates, petroleum, parafiin, parabens, GMOs, and artificial colors and dyes. They are committed to using organic and natural ingredients. Their signature scents include Bamboo Bergamot, Coconut Hibiscus, Grapefruit Ginger, Lemongrass Lavender, Passion Fruit, and Sandalwood Vanilla.

I was interested in DANI Naturals because of their commitment to creating organic and natural skincare, but I also was drawn to them because my name is Danielle. They sent me a Coconut Hibiscus travel set and Lemongrass Lavender bath bomb to try.

The Coconut Hibiscus Travel Size Toiletries Kit comes with a shampoo, conditioner, lotion, and hand and body wash. Each bottle is 2 fl oz, making it the perfect set for air travel or general on-the-go needs. I took it with me to the gym and it was so convenient to have everything I needed right in one pack.

The coconut hibiscus scent is to die for -- so deliciously fruity and slightly floral. It reminds me of summer. The products are made without sulfates but still lathered up well and left my skin and hair feeling clean. The lotion is nice and smooth and absorbed quickly into my skin and left a soft scent.

A relaxing bath with a bath bomb is one of my favorite ways to wind down, and the Lemongrass Lavender Bath Bomb was quite a treat. The essential oil blend is the perfect balance between the calming power of lavender and the uplifting scent of lemongrass. There's also a hint of bergamot, geranium, and rosemary. I loved the scent and found it to be very relaxing.

Bottom Line: DANI Naturals has a great line of natural skincare products. I'm excited to try more of their bath bombs and want to pick up some candles, too. The two scents I tried were lovely and I'm sure the rest are equally soothing. This is a great brand for anyone looking for eco-friendly, cruelty-free beauty!

April Shades Club Review and Coupon

Summer's coming, so now is the perfect time to build up your sunglasses collection. Shades Club is a fun and easy way to do so, as they send high quality sunglasses of all different designs each month.

*Disclaimer: This box was purchased by See, Shop, Love! at a discounted rate in exchange for an honest review.

Shades Club sends a pair of sunglasses valued at around $100 for only $45 each month. All of the shades I've gotten have been great quality, comparable to brands at much higher price points.

Here are their pricing options:

• Monthly: $45
• 4 Months: $112 ($28 per box)
• 6 Months: $162 ($27 per box)
• 12 Months: $288 ($24 per box)

All orders ship with free 2-3 day shipping to the U.S. and international shipping prices vary based on the destination.

The Shades for April are the Nantucket Summer Vacay style. Each pair comes with a microfiber drawstring bag for storage that doubles as a lens cloth. Boxes sometimes also include extras, like a sunglass hanging kit. Your first box will come with the Shades branded fold up case (see that here).

I'm not quite sure what to call this style, as they're kind of wayfarers but have round lenses. The frames are a speckled black and white/clear pattern and the lenses are a purple/blue tint. You can see the branded "Shades" logo in the left hand lens in the photo above.

The arms of the glasses also have the style name and "If it feels good, do it" written on the insides, which I think is a fun addition to the design. The arms are sturdy, but I found that when I first unfolded them they had a little bit of resistance, so I was afraid I was going to snap them (no worries, though, the frames are well made, I was just being extra cautious).

This style is not the best for my face shape (I look best in squarer lenses), but I love the frames and the colored tint on the lenses. It's always fun to see what design will be in my Shades Club box every month, and they certainly send a great variety of styles!

Bottom Line: The Summer Vacay - Nantucket shades are the most colorful design I've gotten yet, and they're definitely suited for East Coast beach life!

April Gramma in a Box Review and Coupon

The April Gramma in a Box arrived a little later than usual due a shipping delay, but the issue was quickly taken care of and I received my box full of Spring treats!

*Disclaimer: This box was sent to See, Shop, Love! in exchange for an honest review.

Gramma in a Box is a monthly subscription that sends supplies for three candy and cookie crafts to share with your loved ones (or keep for yourself, no shame!). The box was created by Terry, or "Gramma," after her grandchildren moved away and she wanted a way to share baked goodies with them.

Here are the pricing options:

• Monthly: $20 per month
• Three Months: $55 every three months (save $5)
• Six Months: $110 every six months (save $10)
• 12 Months: $220 every 12 months (save $20)

Shipping is free to the U.S. and taxes are included. If you want to cancel, do so by the 25th of the month.

So this month there was a shipping error where some of the labels fell off of the boxes en route. It was just one of those unlucky circumstances that was the fault of no one; however, Terry promptly emailed me and the other customers affected and let us know she'd be shipping a second box. I appreciate the quick and considerate customer service!

The boxes come with all of the ingredients you'll need to create the crafts. The only things you may need to supply are household items like a spoon or bowl for mixing.

Project one was Marshmallow Flowers Pops. There were enough supplies to make six pops, but I made only three because I wanted to save a majority of the melting chocolate for project two. This activity consisted of melting the chocolate, then dabbing a quarter-sized amount on the supplied wax paper and arranging the marshmallows around an M&M center. The finished product is really cute!

Project two was Crunchy Birds' Nests. I used the leftover melting chocolate and mixed in the crunchy Chinese noodles, then spooned some into each of the six candy cups. The finishing touch was to add three jellybeans to make little "eggs."

The third project is always cookies, and this month's theme was Spring Cookie Decorating. The cookies are all pre-baked, so it's recommended that you complete your crafts within a week of receiving the box. There are also three frosting colors and sprinkles with which to decorate.

The shapes this month were eggs, birds, and bunnies!

I decided to keep my frosting simple this month, not going too crazy with trying to decorate the bunnies or birds. The bird reminded me of the Twitter logo, so I made him bright blue. There were eight cookies total, I just took a close-up photo of some of them so you could see the detail.

Bottom Line: I love spring things, so the April Gramma in a Box had a perfect theme for me (especially the bunny cookies)! I appreciated the prompt customer service with the missing boxes, and had a lot of fun, as always, completing the crafts.

Yardley London Activated Charcoal Bath Bar Review

Yardley London has been crafting fine luxury soaps since 1770. Their new Activated Charcoal Bath Bar is the newest in their tradition of bars made with time-tested ingredients from nature.

*Disclaimer: This product was sent to See, Shop, Love! in exchange for an honest review via BrandBacker.

Charcoal has gotten a lot of attention lately as a purifying ingredient. It's known for its ability to draw out impurities, and the Yardley London bar combines it with Bentonite clay to help purify and cleanse skin while you bathe. The scent is an uplifting blend of spearmint and bergamot to energize the senses.

You can see the ingredients list in the photo above. All of the Yardley London bars are paraben- and sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS)-free and are not tested on animals.

The Yardley London Activated Charcoal Bath Bar is a simple luxury. I really enjoyed using it in the shower, especially after a workout. It felt great to cleanse and purify my skin with the activated charcoal, as I knew it was giving me an added boost of cleansing. The scent is very light, but I absolutely love bergamot and it felt so calming to use it while washing! Even without SLS, it lathers up really well with a sponge or just between your hands. It's also curved, so it's easier to hold in your palm while lathering up.

Yardley London soaps are available at multiple stores, including Walmart, Walgreens, CVS, Rite Aid, Dollar Tree, Dollar General, ShopRite, Publix, HEB, and Wegmans. The Activated Charcoal Bath Bar costs anywhere from $1.29 to $1.49 depending on the store (it is only $.97 at Walmart), so it's great for beauty on a budget.

Bottom Line: I really enjoy the Yardley London Activated Charcoal Bath Bar! It smells lovely and cleanses my skin without leaving it feeling too dry or overly-washed. The activated charcoal and bentonite clay ingredients ensure a full, deep clean that's also gentle.
