Renee Whiley - Northern Essentials

Hey all! I know I havent posted in here for a while, its all been happening over in my group, so feel free to join! (Link is below)
I will start updating my page again soon, after finding out about this surpirse pregnancy, quitting my job to focus on bath bombs, going full time admin for my partners business and rearranging our whole house things have been a bit crazy 💚💚

Close your eyes and imagine for a second that you are thousands of kilometres from home, heading into god only knows what, and in the back of your mind there is a whisper that you may never return to our beautiful Australian shores.
You wonder what you’re doing there, why you have left the safety and love of your family.

Those are the thoughts of a service women who was based in Afghanistan, she expressed them in a letter we received back from a package sent.
She also said that our simple Thank You reminded her why she was there. It’s not just for her family, it is for all of us, so that we can live in freedom and enjoy the opportunities we have in this beautiful country

So please, today, take a moment to remember the sacrifice made by thousands of Australians and New Zealanders and thank them for all they have done, and continue to do.

We will remember them

Waffle bomb part 2

Because I can’t seem to upload a video and pics on the same post....is that an iPhone thing or just me being FB special?

Trying something a bit different

And it’s raining in Darwin!! I thought we were done with rain for the year but nope :-)

So I know I haven't posted for a while, but I have been making some decisions
I will still be sharing oils, but my focus will now be mostly bath bombs and bath products. Ive always known I wanted to focus on using oils safely with kids, and we know how hard it can be at times getting your child to have a bath, so bath bombs kind of came naturally!
I wanted something fun for Jayden, our 7 year old, to use while also safely using oils in his bath. The trouble was all the bath bombs I found in stores contained ingredients I didnt want him bathing in (SLS!!!) - so I decided to make them myself

None of my bombs contain Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS), which is a surfactant (surface active agent) and is found in a lot of "foaming" products. Because SLS has such a small molecular structure it can pe*****te the skin quite easily, and scarily is a derivative of sulfuric acid - definitely not something I want our son (or anyone) absorbing!

I also do not use synthetic fragrance oils (unless requested), I want my bath bombs to be therapeutic, so I keep them as natural as possible. The bombs come with a small vial of diluted essential oil to be added before use, this way the therapeutic benefits of the oil are not compromised by the ingredients of the bath bomb if it isn't used right away

I make all of my bath bombs from scratch, and have spent the last few months perfecting recipes and coming up with some new ones, which I am so excited about sharing!

Using Essential Oils is an incredible way to assist in keeping your family happy and healthy, so by simply adding a few drops of diluted oils to a bath bomb, not only will your child actually want to bathe, but you can also add an Essential Oil to suit their mood (Im more than happy to match you with an oil/s)

I can't wait to share some of my creations with you all, and watch this space for changes
❤️

So many people around us are sick!
When we've been around those people, Dan and I will take a veggie cap, and Jayden's feel will get a spray
None of us have been sick in well over a year! *touch wood*
