BIBLICAL BEAUTY: ANCIENT SECRETS AND MODERN SOLUTIONS Review + Giveaway


MarksvilleandMe reviews Biblical Beauty: Ancient Secrets and Modern Solutions
written by
Rachelle Weisberger

I was very interested in Biblical Beauty: Ancient Secrets and Modern Solutions because as a child I grew up wearing dresses, no makeup, having long hair, and dressing modestly. Not that any of that is wrong, but we were looked down upon if we cut our hair, wore makeup, and even most jewelry was not looked upon well by the elders. 

Mainly this was to teach us to not be vain, and to see the beauty within others, not only on  the outside. What we saw was who that person was, no surprises. As I grew I wanted to keep most of what I was taught with being modest. 

Biblical Beauty: Ancient Secrets and Modern Solutions is great because it keeps you modest while also teaching you techniques that won't ruin the modesty I would like to keep. Taking care of our bodies helps us stay healthy not only on the outside but also on the inside, where true Beauty Blossoms from.

CanYouHandlebar Dry Beard Oil Conditioner Review



MarksvilleandMe reviews 
CanYouHandlebar Dry Beard Oil Conditioner

I had to call my husband in on this one since I don't have a beard or mustache to review with. The Can You Handle Bar Dry Beard Oil comes in three scents classic scent, initiative, and wisdom. My husband was able to try out the Wisdom scent. 

This is the first time he has ever used anything on his beard other then soap, shampoo, or water. What a difference it has made. He has always shaved his beard because of the dry skin at the base of his beard which has caused what we call beard dandruff. The Can You Handle Bar Dry Beard Oil has changed all that and made his beard that much enjoyable for both him and myself.

I was the girl who said I would never be with a man with body or facial hair, guess I was way off. Twenty Four plus years later we are together, happily married with 6 children and 2 grand daughters. Love doesn't care about facial hair.

 What CanYouHandlebar has to say about their product 

Beard Dry Oil (“DO”) is a premium hand-crafted beard oil, with a twist. Like all beard oils, DO provides the oils that hairs crave, producing a healthy shine that makes beards and goatees look great. The product is called a “dry” oil because we add just enough beeswax to make the oil solid at room temperature. "DO" not only stands for “Dry Oil”, but also reminds us to do the things we know we should do. Do not procrastinate. Do honorable things. Do things our dads would be proud of. As the ancient proverb goes, “do what is right and come what may.” Isn’t that a good thought to have in the morning? I think so. 

This oil is built around the warm scent of fresh cut spruce and cedar. It is warm and fresh but definitely masculine. It will remind you of sitting by a fire with a cup of coffee and letting your mind wander.

Like all beard oils, it will make your beard or goatee look awesome, by restoring the oils it should have had all along. I use it from the sideburns area all the way down to my chin. It softens the hairs a little. DO will make your facial hair look better by adding a very light gloss, while feeling softer and keeping your beard healthy and strong.

The base oil was designed to help your beard look great and maintain its health. The aroma is made of high quality essential with no cheap fillers. The attention to detail extends to the labeling. Knowing that your beard oil will likely be stored in your bathroom where water and small amounts of oil will get onto the label, we spent a little extra and used water- and oil-proof labels! Your oil will look as good from the day it arrives until you've used the last drop!
