Castle Baths Spa Products Review and Giveaway


Castle Baths Spa Products is a great site for all your spa product needs. Castle Baths specializes in creating natural organic spa products for skin and bath with therapeutic aromatherapy and botany ingredients. All bath and body products are made to order. Castle Baths is an eco-friendly business and they are here to help save our environment. They use natural ingredients and purchase product ingredients from other eco-friendly businesses as well. Castle Baths has everything from spa soaps, bath salts, body wash and even bath teas just to name a few.

Castle Baths sent me a treasure chest spa gift basket that had foot scrub candies and a yellow rose soap. First off the presentation of the spa products are so unique. My husband thought it was real candy =)

The foot scrub candies soften and exfoliate your heels. Rub the "candy" over your heel and then drop the rest of the candy into a warm foot bath. I used one spearmint candy for both feet and then let them soak for about 10 minutes. I used them right before bed to let my feet absorb the oils while I slept. I usually have to go to get a pedicure for my feet to feel this good. I wear sandals most days, and my heels get rough constantly. The next day my heels were still super smooth and I felt more relaxed. The rose soap bar was also great and I felt very refreshed. I just adore spa products and it is so nice to get pampered in your own home.

These great spa and bath products would make wonderful bridesmaid gifts as well as ways to pamper the bride before the wedding. The yellow rose soaps come in packs of a dozen. Yellow roses are for friendship and who doesn't love adorable great smelling soaps. I also think these bath soaps would be great gifts to give out at your bridal shower to thank everyone. Additional colors are available upon request. Remember made to order!!

Kmart Double Coupons 4/4- 4/10

Well, I have good news and bad news. The good news of course is that Kmart is having another DOUBLE COUPON DAYS in April. The bad news is the rules are a little different now.

New terms on doubling:

Manufacturer Coupons up to $2
Does not include Kmart Store Coupons
Does not include Kmart Pharmacy Store Coupons
Limit 5 total coupons per customer per day
The first 5 coupons provided by customer will be doubled

In the past my local store did not enforce the coupon limit- it used to be a limit of 10 coupons per customer, per day. Five coupons is nothing to write home about except if you live practically next door to a store, then it might be worth it. I'll post once I get more details, as I hear a rewards card might be involved to track your 5 coupons. Check out to see the list of all stores participating here..Have a wonderful weekend...Enjoy!

Thursday's Wedding Tip #38




I was so happy to see Jessica emailed me with a wedding question this week. Her question is "Do you have honeymoon location suggestions for our January wedding next year". I certainly do have some ideas and what a great question.

Wedding tip #38- How to pick out the best honeymoon location for your wedding month.

Winter : (December -March)

-A romantic ski resort
-Caribbean and the Bahamas

A ski resort would be very romantic and think about sitting next to a fireplace all night long with your new husband. I had friends who went to Vail for their honeymoon in February and loved every minute of it. Of course if you are not a fan of the cold, you can always head to the Caribbean or the Bahamas. You can find a nice hotel down south or take a romantic cruise. I suggest a 7-10 night cruise for full relaxation.

Spring: (March- May)

-Hawaii
-Mexico
-Costa Rica


Hawaii is always a top honeymoon destination. If you are from the west coast it is not to far of a trip, but for me in Florida, I did not want to take extra time away from work for all the travel time. There are great resorts in Mexico for all your honeymoon needs if you want to sit back and relax. Head to Costa Rica for beautiful beaches and spectacular rainforests if you are looking for more adventure.


Summer: (June-August)

-Bermuda

Bermuda is a gorgeous location for your first days as husband and wife. Car rentals are not used, so mopeds are the preferred form of transportation. There are cute cottages for you to rent for the week.


Fall: (September- November)

-Las Vegas
-Aruba

Aruba is usually out of the hurricane zone so if you are looking for warm weather- Aruba is the spot. Vegas is a top choice of mine and many of my friends have honeymooned their. It is great for young couples(21+).


*The most important thing to remember when planning is hurricane season, which runs June to November.

P.S.- I finally got a picture for my Thursday Wedding Tips- took me 38 weeks(lol)!! I would love to know what you think. It was hard to choose the perfect picture, but since my weekly tips are for walking down the aisle, I though this was the most appropriate. Enjoy!
