How To Make Organic Vegan Liquid Hand Soap and Other Coconut Oil Fun



Hey Pop Culture Shockers! Today, I’m doing something a little different. I wanted so much to share this particular recipe with all of you, along with another recipe, but it I kept putting it off and then … happiness! I received a jar of Island’s Miracle 100% Organic Extra VirginCoconut Oil! Oh, does the name Island’s Miracle sound familiar? Yes … Of course it does! I have had the privilege of reviewing three other products from this company and they basically had me with the first one! I will link all of those reviews at the end … but for now; let’s get to two amazing uses for Island’s Miracle Coconut Oil. The first is Organic Vegan Liquid Hand Soap and the second is Organic Coconut Oil Lip Gloss!


Organic Vegan Liquid Hand Soap Recipe

Items: Metal Pot, Measuring Spoons, Glass Measuring Cup, Wisk, and Hand Soap Bottles

Ingredients: Island’s Miracle 100% Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil, Island’s Miracle Essential Oils (optional), Vegan Castile Soap, and Water

Put 2 tablespoons of Island’s Miracle 100% Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil into the pot over low heat. Add 2 tablespoons of Castile Soap and 10 drops of Island’s Miracle Essential Oils (optional). Allow ingredients to blend together over the heat. When well melded, begin to slowly add 2 cups of water. Heat for approximately 3 minutes. Allow liquid to cool completely and then pour into hand soap containers.

This particular recipe is so simple and can easily be altered to reduce or increase the amount of liquid hand soap that you want to make. It’s amazing for the cold winter months, as it is very moisturizing! This is one hand soap that you can feel really good about your family using!


Organic Coconut Oil Lip Gloss Recipe

Items: Lip Gloss Pots, Plastic Spoon, and Microwaveable Bowl

Ingredients: Island’s Miracle 100% Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil, Waxelene, Vegan Lipstick, and Peppermint Extract

Melt equal parts Island’s Miracle 100% Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil and Waxelene in a microwaveable bowl until completely melted and combined, approximately 90 seconds. Stop and stir every 30 seconds. Add lipstick. Place in the microwave for another 90 seconds, stopping every 30 seconds to stir. Allow the mixture to cool slightly and add the peppermint extract. Stir until well blended and fill each lip-gloss pot.

I hope that you all enjoy these recipes! Island’s Miracle 100% Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil is perfect for health, beauty, grooming and cooking! These amazement in a jar sells for $12.95 on Amazon and is worth every single penny!

USDA Organic Coffee Beans from Cafe Contibio Review



For true coffee lovers, there is nothing quite like the sumptuous aroma of freshly ground coffee beans. For those of us that are conscientious of the world we live in, that coffee has got to be organic, non-GMO and Fair Trade. The question here – Can you get all of that from one brand?

The answer is yes! Cafe Contibio offers a light/medium body coffee that is enticing from the moment you open the re-sealable bag. If you’ve never ground your coffee beans, you do not know what you’re missing and I highly recommend starting your new coffee experience with this brand. What you’ll receive is a 16-ounce bag of sustainable sourced, freshly roasted beans. In my video review, I demonstrate how to grind the beans with a food processor. You can achieve a good grind via the food processor, but I recommend purchasing a coffee grinder – it’s quicker and smaller.

Cafe Contibio is a brand that holds the same values as I do. They use local farmers, which supports smaller communities. Their coffee is sustainably sourced, which helps to protect the environment. The do not use GMO beans, which means that I know what I’m putting into my body! Delicious coffee with a conscience! You can find Cafe Contibio on Amazon!

LiveFresh Organic Blotting Paper Review



Like many women, I have combination skin that leaves me a little shiny in the T-Zone area by mid-day. Having used Clean and Clear Blotting Sheets for years, I was game to test out this organic brand.


The LiveFresh Organic Blotting Paper arrived in a cardboard fold-case, just as other blotting papers are packaged, but this packaging is really lovely. Many of you may be familiar with that “top-selling” brand of Oil Absorbing Sheets, which are blue and made from synthetic fibers. They are far smaller then LiveFresh Organic Blotting Paper and less effective.


Also, unlike other brands, LiveFresh Organic Blotting Paper uses 100% natural fibers. They are made from the Abaca leaf and are infused with soothing green tea. After trying LiveFresh Organic Blotting Paper – Oil Absorbing Sheets, I won’t be using any other brand! LiveFresh Organic Blotting Paper – Oil Absorbing Sheets are available is packs of 100 and sell for $19.99 (currently on sale for $7.99 – 100 Sheet Pack) and can be purchased on Amazon! Oops! Almost forgot that LiveFresh offers a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee!
