Natural U Daily Body Rub Review

 

natural body rub

Last month I was privilege to receive Natural U- Daily body rub for review. I have been looking for organic product  which can help relieve sore muscles and was pleasantly surprised when Catherine of Natural U said that they do international reviews of their products.

Created by two mums looking for a remedy for their dry and itchy skin, Natural U provides natural and organic (certified by the Soil Association!) skincare products that come in cute  little glass jars.

The Daily body rub is made from shea butter, Sunflower seed oil,beewax,olive oil,calendula oil,sweet almond oil among other ingredients the rub not only smelled good but was also not oily to the touch. It applies easily and doesn’t feel sticky or greasy after application.

I have been having sore neck and back aches due to carrying Tiger girl who is a hefty 12kg at 20 months old.  She still prefers to be carried at times even though she is able to walk and run now. Carrying her around the house and when we are out causes a strain on my neck and back even though she is in a carrier on most occassions.

I used the body rub on my neck and back at night before turning in for the night. The next morning the muscles were less sore and there was less tension in my back. I tried it out for about a month as I wanted to see the effects of the product over a longer period of time.  Out of the four weeks  I used the product for 2 weeks straight then stopped for a week before applying it again for another week. This was because I wanted to test the difference between using it and not using it.

 My conclusion:– Applying the balm really helped to soothe my sore muscles. I could really fee the difference when I apply it and when I don’t. Applying it certainly helps me feel more refreshed in the morning and having  muscles which were no long feeling extremely sore.

I definitely recommend this product if you too as suffering from sore necks and back aches.

SOC: Food and People

This week has been a lot on food for me. On Monday Tiger girl and I went to the Halia for food tasting. It was the first time I brought her to a fine dining restaurant for dinner and I didn’t know if she could sit through the whole 4 course meal with strangers.  She was relatively well behaved that night and I managed to stay through the whole dinner without her leaving the table once. She did hop a few times from her high chair to my seat and back. Tiger girl occupied herself playing with her food and my phone after eating enough spaghetti.  I really enjoyed myself at that dinner.

During the weekend I went for my last baking bread class. The class lasted the whole day from 8.30am in the morning to 4pm. Most of the time we were waiting for the bread to be proofed and ready for baking. Baking bread is really very tiring.  I easily waited for 10 hrs that day before my tomato rosemary,  black paper bread was ready to be baked. We couldn’t bake it in the class and I had to take it home to bake. The sourdough bread and raisin bread which I made was able to be baked in class at they took shorter time to be ready.

I feel that I a more cake person then a bread person and it really takes a shorter time doing cakes as compared to bread. The kids and R too prefer the cakes to the bread. Next up would be back to baking cakes this week. I’m having my eye on making a double layer  normal cheese  cake and chocolate cheese cake for the kids to eat.

How was your week?
