Modern Roots
You all know I am a die hard supporter of small businesses, especially when they are local. I recently stopped into ModernRoots on Main Street in downtown Stillwater and I loved what I found.
Here are a couple of my favorites-
-Skeeter Bee Gone
No one likes being bitten up at their favorite outside events. This is seriously the best bug spray I have tried. It is light, smells like a light perfume, and is NOT sticky!
I honestly keep it in my car and use it all the time. You honestly can’t go wrong. It also comes in a roll on that could easily be kept in your purse or diaper bag.
-Lavender Mint Laundry Soap
I am obsessed with just about anything Lavender and this laundry soap doesn’t disappoint. I love that I can purchase it locally and that it isn’t filled with toxic chemicals. It smells heavenly and it makes me want to do laundry, which is a serious feat, for someone who hates folding laundry as much as I do.
-Magnesium Balm-
I have been using Magnesium Balm/supplements since my marathon training days and have struggled to find a consistent product that I like. This takes the cake. I love that it isn’t greasy and it doesn’t have a heavy fragrance. I use it whenever I have sore muscles or on my feet at night to help me sleep.
Here are just a few benefits of Magnesium-
Fights depression
Has anti-inflammatory benefits
Prevents Migraines
Reduces insulin resistance
Helps improve muscle recovery
-Moisture Mist- Egyptian Goddess
Any female in Minnesota knows the pain of putting on jeans after slathering on lotion. Here’s your straight up solution. This moisture mist smells heavenly and has completely replaced lotion in my daily routine. It is light, but packs a punch in the moisture department. It would be a great after sun spray too when you get a little fried this would be the perfect thing to help relax the burn.
There’s a boatload of products that I have on my wish list to try too-
-Laundry Stain Stick
-Lip gloss
-Bath Bombs- baths have recently become one of my favorite forms of self care and I have been dying to grab some to try!
-Essential Oil Blends
The ladies in the store are super helpful and I would definitely recommend checking them out :)
