Stay flake-free with Peppermint and Tea Tree Shampoo

In the wintertime, when the humidity level drops, so does the moisture level in our skin. Sensitive scalps can become dry and inflamed, and can lead to flaking and dandruff. Fortunately, there are natural solutions to this problem. Shampoos with Peppermint and Tea Tree Oils (like Sarah Scott's Peppermint Clarifying Shampoo) have natural astringents that help battle dandruff. You can also lower the heat setting on your hair dryer to ensure a flake-free scalp.

Stay natural and keep clear of artifically-scented lotions!

If you're into natural skincare, you know the importance of staying clear of anything that contains artificial fragrances. Store shelves are full of inexpensive lotions and moisturizers that might smell great, but leave you wondering what kind of chemicals you are putting on your skin. However, there are alternatives to those chemically-based lotions. Sarah Scott's Lavender Lotion has a wonderful lavender scent that comes from real essential oil (imagine that!). It's not often you will find a lavender lotion with healing aloe and Vitamin E - which will work wonders on your skin. And don't worry, the natural fragrance isn't overpowering, plus it's safe for sensitive skin too. Available at http://www.shopsarahscott.com/.
