Mia Bath & Body Bare Necessities Bundle Review and GIVEAWAY 8/26

***Disclosure: I received complimentary samples to facilitate my review. No other compensation was provided, and all opinions are 100% honest and have not been influenced in any way.***

I am a self-proclaimed beauty junkie. I have an addiction to all things that smell good and make me look and feel prettier than I actually am. It's bad. My "collection" takes over an entire bathroom, a pantry, and even the tops of dressers in my bedroom. My husband thinks I need a 12-Step Program for "Girly Stuff Addicts". (His words, not mine.) 

So naturally, when I discovered Mia Bath & Body with Amanda Popp, I knew I simply had to try these products! Mia Bath & Body is a brand I had never heard of before, and the more I learned, the more excited I became. Not only are these products spa-quality and inspired by nature, you can also create your own custom scent recipes! How cool is that?!

My Signature Scent and Review :

Amanda at Mia Bath & Body sent me their Bare Necessities Bundle to try for myself. I created my own special scent by mixing Buttercream, Lime, and Coconut. (Think Key Lime Pie! Yumm-O!) 

The Bare Necessities Bundle includes the following products: 

• Mia Body Wash
• Mia Organic Sugar Scrub
• Mia Body Lotion
• Mia Body Butter

My bundle arrived quickly, and I was delighted to find my name on the product labels themselves! Each one has my custom scent as well as a note that says "Thank you, Brandy!". Pretty neat, right? This made my bundle seem all the more special! (I just love little personalized touches like that!) 

The Mia Body Wash is amazing. It lathers up quite nicely, so a little bit goes a long way. It has a spectacular scent, and rinses away cleanly, leaving my skin squeaky clean and hydrated without any funky residue. 

I also love the Mia Body Lotion. This is a lighter-weight lotion, which is perfect for everyday use. Again, I cannot emphasize the scent enough! This smells just like a creamy, delicious key lime pie! (Of course your signature scent would be different, depending on the scent combinations you choose.) This lotion leaves the skin super-soft, and the scent isn't at all over-powering as you go throughout your day.

But I have saved my absolute favorites for last. First, I have to RAVE about the Mia Organic Sugar Scrub. I am a huge fan of scrubs, since they slough away dead, dry skin, leaving the skin amazingly, touchably soft. The Mia Organic Sugar Scrub has natural ingredients that the skin craves, such as Shea Butter and Sunflower Seed Oil. 

I use this before shaving, as well as before using self-tanner. This comes in handy year round, although my scrubs seem to get more use in the colder months since my elbows, knees and ankles tend to get quite dry. I can't wait to use this during the fall and winter! 

My other favorite would have to be the Mia Body Butter. Again, a little goes a long way. This body butter is super-rich and creamy, and again, smells out of this world. This body butter also contains wonderful ingredients like Cocoa Seed Butter, Shea Butter, Japanese Green Tea, and Vitamin E, just to name a few. 

Let me give it to you all straight. If I could bathe in Mia Body Butter, I would. This rich, creamy body butter leaves my skin feeling absolutely amazing. Like velvet, actually! And I love the fact that the skin absorbs it rather quickly, so there's no gross, greasy residue. 

This next product isn't included in the Bare Necessities Bundle, but I thought it was definitely worth mentioning. I love perfume, and always have some on, whether I am leaving the house or not. I have an obsession with smelling good at all times. 

Mia Bath & Body offers Scent Roll-Ons in any of Mia Bath & Body's amazing scents, as well as some very convincing designer scents. I chose Amazing Grace, which just happens to be one of the designer scents. (Amazing Grace is a fabulous fragrance by Philosophy, and one of my all-time favorites.) 

This little fragrance roller is compact, easy to stick in your purse or pocket, and smells amazing. This smells exactly like the "real deal". I was quite impressed. Normally, I can detect imitation scents a mile away. There are often very subtle differences that someone who is accustomed to the original can detect quite easily. In this case, I simply could not tell the difference. At all. And the scent is long-lasting, too. I put some of this on my wrists in the morning, and by dinnertime, I could still smell it. Pretty darn impressive, in my humble opinion! 

Overall, I am head over heels in love with Mia Bath & Body. These products are absolutely amazing, and I love the fact that they contain so many natural ingredients. My skin is incredibly soft, and even looks more vibrant since I started using these products. Oh, and of course being able to create my own custom scents is pretty cool, too. This time was it was all about the Coconut/Buttercream/Lime, but maybe next time I will try something completely different. Honeysuckle/Peach, perhaps? There are thousands of combinations, so the possibilities are endless! Have fun creating your very own scent recipes with Mia Bath & Body!
