About Me

My photo
I'm Trenny and my philosophy is rather simple-I believe there are only 2 forces in this world, Love or Fear. My goal is to try to see things through the eyes of love, but I am fallible and do not always succeed. My professional career at the moment is that of a fashion stylist in New York,but my interests are varied. This blog is the like a blog ‘magazine/newspaper/journal', where I’ve combined all the elements of things that I love to learn through those mediums myself. Some life journaling, lots of music. A little health, natural product talk and recipe sharing. Random musings on life experiences, a little style, art and humour. Environment issues too as nature is our greatest gift. I hope it teaches you something, makes you laugh, or gets you interested in something different. If it fires you up,I welcome learning all different points of view. I hope that what I share, including my mistakes, encourages you. *In the end, I believe we are all each other's teachers, so whatever you might be inspired to say/share with me through this blog- good and bad- I fully welcome it. I learn just as much from you. Happiness and Love xoxo TrennyLynn - trennylynn@gmail.com

Soft & Yummy Spring Summer Skin

Nothing bothers me more than seeing people plop down $30 at Sephora or Bath & Body Works or some shop like that for some sort of 'Body Scrub" within which half the ingredients are chemicals and fragrances. I have been using the same little simple and cheap scrub in the shower for years, and I am telling you--I have such soft yummy skin in the Summer, you should try it too!
The Cost? $4.00-now you cannot beat that.

Simply get a medium sized tupperware container with a lid from the grocery or your cabinet.
Add-
1/2 cup organic Brown Turbinado sugar granules
1 cup of Olive, Grape Seed, or Avocado Oil

*Stir 'em up together and put the lid on. Keep in your shower and scrub up once a week all over rover! No yucky cheap moisturizer needed. You will love your skin---so will your significant other. :)
*Oh- and if you like a little sexy smell, get an essential oil that is to your liking and add a few drops to scent it your way. This scrub is so much healthier than anything you can buy in a store, PLUS do you know what you put on your skin goes into your pores? So, that in turn means that it also goes into your bloodstream. Instead of scrubs and soaps with dyes and chemicals and fragrance, you are now putting anti-oxidant FOOD into your skin with these healthy oils. Your body will thank you.
Enjoy!
