How to make scented soy wax candles at home

 Who doesn't love a good candle? You use candles to scent your home or office, to unwind or even to take away smells of food and cigar or cigarette smoke. But have you thought of trying your hand at making your own candles? It's super easy and fun for the whole family. There are easy accessible kits at both your local department and craft stores, see this episode here , where I used a candle making kit from Walmart! With kits you can not control the type of wax you have but you can definitely get the wax you need and that I personally prefer from a craft section from the discount department stores or from the craft store online or in store. First, you need soy wax, eight ounce candle tins, candle wicks, color, fragrance, glue dots or a glue gun and glue sticks ( I prefer the latter )...all these items are very affordable. Once you have everything you need, you're going to measure out one pound which is about sixteen ounces. This will give you three 8 ounce candles. The math...

Whipping Up a Refreshing New Shower Experience for Men

 Whipping Up a Refreshing New Shower Experience for Men

When thinking of a shower experience for men, I had to keep in mind; most men spend the same amount of time in the shower if not more, than women...so I had to deliver with a smell good trio that can be used in multiple ways in and out of the shower. Let's start with last week's YouTube video, where I whip up this smooth and creamy shower whip that can be used as a bodywash or shave cream!


Keeping in mind how I would want my man to smell, I had to come up with a combination fragrance that was not only sweet, but strong and musky. I don't know about you but I love any man that smells like he can go from the gym, to the boardroom and dinner and drinks with the same scent and it fits all locations. Not overpowering but just the right amount of "umph" to have you or your man KNOWING they smell damn good.



Once, the fragrance was formulated and perfected, I had to get the correct combination of oils to not only hydrate the skin, but promote healthy, supple skin and hair. BodyGarbage is proud in producing highly conditioning products, we don't like to have dry, irritated skin and we don't want you to either.  




After I compiled the best possible oils and additives in addition to my whip base, the only thing left to do was whip it to perfection and package it up. 







Is this the whip for your man and are you willing to have fun...figuring it out? 😉
