Cruelty Free Brand Focus: Ellovi

Over the past few weeks I've been putting Ellovi's range of body butters and lip balms to the test. Ellovi (pronounced like 'love' is spelled), began their brand with their six ingredient body butter. Their body butter is handmade in Berkley, California and features good-for-you superfood ingredients, and no fillers or harmful chemicals. I've mentioned in past posts that I've been seeking out more natural products lately and Ellovi definitely fits the bill.

Loving this vanilla scent!

Ellovi's body butter comes in 5 scents; original, vanilla, mint, tangerine, and lavender. I tried both the vanilla and mint varieties. The vanilla is my current favorite, it's smells indulgent and also a bit like vanilla cake batter. (Yum!) The butter is thick, rich, and makes my skin feel super soft and nourished.

One of my favorite things about winter is sinking into freshly washed flannel sheets after a hot shower, and using a nice rich lotion or body butter. Ellovi has snuck it's way into this ritual and I think it's here to stay!

As winter rolled in I fell off the wagon an bit when it came to being consistent in my workouts. Whitney Simmons and her bubbly, fun, inspiring youtube channel has been instrumental in getting me back on track. Recently she featured a no bake holiday treats video on her channel, and I decided to make some buckeyes. Here are my results with a few substitutions.
