Back-to-School Giveaway: Pamper Yourself with The Body Shop Coconut Products

by

tbs_ct2009_11

Tune in all week for hot Back-To-School Giveaways. I’ve got some great prizes for the kids, with a couple of special prizes to pamper mom!!! Look for a new 48-hour giveaway each morning and each afternoon, and be sure to check out all of the current giveaways for other great prizes!

Getting kids ready to go back to school is hard work, and today’s giveaway will help you take some time out to pamper yourself with a set of Coconut products from The Body Shop!

Mmm, if you love the scent of coconut as much as I do, I think you’ll love the latest line of products from The Body Shop made with organic virgin coconut oil. I was especially pleased to see that the purchase of these products supports small, organic coconut farmers in Samoa. I’m a big believer in supporting small businesses whenever possible.

I recently had the opportunity to try these for myself, and I absolutely loved them. All day long I’m reminded of warm, sandy beaches and crashing ocean waves (minus the skimboards, LOL). I know smelling like suntan lotion may not appeal to some of you, but I assure you these are not too overpowering, and it’s a cleaner scent.

Coconut Shower Cream – This product foamed up just enough and smells heavenly!

Coconut Body Scrub – I just love body scrubs, and this one did not disappoint in the least. It’s not so greasy that it makes the shower floor too slick, and it’s not as gritty and harsh as other products I’ve tried.

Coconut Body Butter – This is probably my favorite of the products I tried. This thick and luxurious body butter is perfect for parched summer skin, and it doesn’t leave your skin feeling tacky for hours after you apply it like some I’ve used.

Coconut Shimmer Lotion – I was slightly skeptical about the shimmer in this product. After all, I’m definitely not 16 anymore. However, it turned out to be very subtle, and it’s kind of a fun way to add a little something extra for a night out in a cute summery dress.

One lucky Deal Seeking Mom reader will win a prize package worth over $70 that includes:

:: Coconut Body Butter
:: Coconut Body Scrub
:: Coconut Shower Cream
:: Coconut Shimmer Body Lotion

To enter, leave a comment with your favorite way to pamper yourself. Do you have a chocolate stash that no one else knows about? Do you sneak away for a bubble bath with a good book? Do you crank up the music when you’re in the car by yourself and sing along?

    I pamper myself by going shopping to find the hottest deal ALONE!!! It so nice to walk up and down the aisle without the little ones in your ear going “can we buy this?” or “why can’t you buy me this”.

    I like to forget about cleaning the house, forget about doing the laundry and pamper myself a little bit each day. When my baby is taking her morning nap, I will drop everything- sit on the couch- and read. It’s my time away from the daily grind.

    I keep a stash of Girl Scout Thin Mint cookies in the freezer, but now that my family found them, I’ll have to share!

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE taking the time out to hit the gym. Not because I love to workout….none of that! But because after I work out I get a massage, sit in the hot tub, and get to take a shower ALONE!!! (At home I cant use the restroom alone much less take a shower!!)

    I like to do a body scrub in the shower and pick a different nail polish. Redoing my nail polish feels like a fresh start.

    I make myself a cup of jasmine-scented green tea and soak my feet in a peppermint bath. When my feet are happy, I’m happy!

    I also subscribed to the feed through email. One thing I have also done is put dealseekingmom.com on my “reader” on gmail. That way I know when the site is updated. It’s great!

    I love to pamper myself by soaking my feet and giving myself a pedicure…although I don’t have the time to do it often! Sometimes, if I’m super lucky, my husband will give me a massage!

    I get my eyebrows waxed. Sure it costs money, but my girl gets them looking better than I ever can and I don’t have to think about it!

    yummmm…I love coconut, reminds me of summer!
    I dont pamper myself as I should, I enjoy getting up extra early to have some quiet time alone. Thanks!
