DRift away body wash

For me January is the month to reboot & recharge my body from the busy year that has ended, and down time is crucial during this period.  I love induldging in a relaxing bubble bath at the end of the day with Drift Away Milk Soak by Life.  It smells divine and leaves your skin silky soft.  For maximum calming effects light a candle, read a book and stay in for at least 20 minutes.
