Valentine’s Day Gifts that Won’t Make You Gain Weight

Dylan’s Candy Bar Caddy Gift Set “To Go“ offers all a little bit of sweets without having to have to do a major workout after using them. This would make a great Valentine’s Day gift or even a just beacause I was thinking of you. 

This is a cute little to go basket that would be perfect for the woman that is always traveling, goes to college or even a teen girl.  Who doesn’t like the mini version of things right? My girls flipped when they saw they had big versions as well as mini ones. I do get their excitement, it just makes them so cute and not to mention I always find buying the smaller product first the better idea just in case you don’t like it. If you like it you know you can go back online or to the store and purchase the bigger item.

With the “To Go” order you will get 2 lotions and 2 shower gels. This one has chocolate cupcake on one side and the other is birthday cake batter (which I explained in a previous review really smells like frosting). I do want to let you know that the chocolate cupcake lotion does come out white, so no worries there.  (my daughter thought it would come out brown and stay that color until she rubbed it in, I think she was thinking of a sunscreen she once wore) Between the two my favorite is the chocolate.

Here’s a copy of the ingredients in the lotion:

• Shea Butter – derived from the African Karite Nut; used for centuries on cracked, flaky or dehydrated skin; helps skin retain moisture & elasticity; helps protect skin against environmental damage due to naturally high content of Vitamins A & E.
• Vitamins A & E – potent anti-oxidants; help protect & nourish skin while adding luster.
• Aloe Vera Extract – derived from the gel contained in the leaf of the succulent Aloe plant. Aloe Vera has over 200 biologically active ingredients & has been used for centuries as a healing beauty tool. Aloe Vera is known to be a great skin moisturizer that helps to keep skin supple. Helps to increase skin’s hydration and healing properties.
• Chamomile Extract – known anti-allergenic agent that is useful to help soothe and prevent skin irritations. Particularly beneficial for dry, parched skin especially where there is redness or irritation.
• Jojoba Seed Oil – bio-degradable, non-greasy, hypo-allergenic, natural lubricant; moisturizes & conditions the skin.

Just think you can give this to someone you love and not feel guilty about how much is used up….they won’t gain an ounce using it. Want it? You can place an order on the Dylan’s Candy Bar website and click on “To Go.” The To Go currently costs: $14.40

Valentine’s Gifts for Kids: Dylan’s Candy Bar

Dylan’s Candy Bar recently sent me a package and in it was the cutest Body Scented items. Now these items are under “For Her,” but I really think the one I’m about to announce is meant for little girls, after all they need a Valentine’s Day Gift too. 

Dylan’s Candy Bar Piece of Cake Gift Set is really cute, even the package looks like the title….it’s a piece of cake. Yes, the Birthday Cake Batter soda pop shower gel, Body Smootie Lotion and Candy Lip Saver all all tucked away inside the box. The box is in the shape of a single piece of pink (Strawberry frosting according to my girls) cake with sprinkles on top.   

Immediately the girls wanted to try this, they insisted this one is just for kids because moms don’t like cake. Not sure where they got that idea. The Candy Lip Saver smells of birthday cake (vanilla frosting) and felt really soft even after it had been on for a while. For those that may not know the lip saver is created with natural beeswax and shet butter.   The lotion was the next favorite item of theirs because everyone could smell cake all day long and yes that is true (at least for us it was).  Finally we come to the shower gel awhich did smell like you had been mixing cake batter and had spilled some on you.

Here’s a review my girls did for this product:

Lip Saver  (BalletGirl will be first, she’s 9. BabyGirl is second, age 6.)
-Smells just like a birthday cake, but you don’t eat it.
-I like that I get to roll it on my lips with my fingers.

Smoothie Body Lotion
-  It smells very good on you. It lasts all day long too so everyone asks me who is eating cake.
-  It’s super smooth when you rub it in your skin and you don’t have to use a whole bunch.

You can order your “Piece of Cake Gift Set” from Dylan’s Candy Bar site for $18, however today they have a special (1/20/10) where you can get this for $14.40.
