Oil me up before you go-go

Oil me up before you go-go
The temperature is dropping, and that means I must face my daily terror: Five Minutes of Goosebumps. You know-- when you get out of a hot shower and spend five minutes freezing and fumbling as you slather your skin with lotion?

The good news: Soaptopia has a cool, natural new way to keep the goosebumps away.

[don't miss a great giveaway after the jump!]
It's called an Oil Slather, and it comes in ten scent combinations to intrigue every nose. Here's how it works: At the end of your shower, preferably after using some delicious Soaptopia handmade soap, you slather yourself with a few pumps of Oil Slather and then rinse it off. The lovely blend of six different oils soaks right into your skin, infusing it with vitamins and moisture. And then you just get out and dry off and get dressed and laugh at Jack Frost and his goosebumpifying minions, because you've been pre-moisturized.

I tried the YOUcalyptUS Oil Slather, and I'm thrilled with how it works, although the smell is a little medicinal for my personal tastes. Unless you're big into eucalyptus--or you're a koala bear-- you might prefer Dr. V'nilla, Bohemian Rose, or one of the other scents

I also love the adorably packaged handmade soaps which are eco-friendly, vegan, free of nasty chemicals, and made with delicious oils and all-natural ingredients. And the 50/50 Body Balm. But, to be honest, I haven't needed extra lotion since I started Oil Slathering, and I like it that way.~Delilah
