2012 has been a remarkable year so far for new product discoveries that are helping my readers live the spa life every day - even when they're nowhere near their favorite spa. But keep checking back to learn about high quality and unique products and solutions that help you live the spa life - the UPS man visits my house most days of the week!
ORAL HYGIENE
Miracle Propolis Toothpaste
I discovered this at the International Spa Association Conference & Expo. I may never be able to use commercial toothpaste again. I'm a sucker for anything with tea tree oil in it. Click here to read my full review.
$12.95/tube at www.holocuren.com.
LUSH Handmade Cosmetics Toothy Tabs
I may have cheated a bit on my new favorite natural toothpaste to give these solid tooth cleansing tablets a try. These are just too much fun to pass up! And a toothpaste that doesn't suffer at the hands of TSA scrutiny at airport security? Sign me up.
Here's the drill: Chew the tiny tablets in your front teeth (presumably so it doesn't end up in the cracks of your molars) and brush with a wet toothbrush. Prepare for a foamy explosion - seven varities to choose from with natural ingredients like lemon, lavender, spearmint and wasabi. The black pepper oil in the Sparkle variety leaves a pleasant invigoration behind.
LUSH products are minimally packaged (70% can be purchased "naked", or free of packaging), not tested on animals and made by hand with natural vegetarian ingredients. The company belief statement includes believing in "long candlelit baths, sharing showers, massage". Now THAT is living the spa life!!!
$3.95 to $4.95 at lushusa.com.

LUXURY LINENS
Comphy Company at Home
One of the simplest ways to live the spa life at home is to create a spa-like luxury bed - the place you spend one-third of your time. Luxury linens that sell themselves after a guest experiences them in the treatment room? That is Comphy Company at Home. Read my full review here.
