Nearer Nature Nature Herbal Hair Oil

natural Hair Treatment
Nearer Nature Divine Herbal Hair Oil $38.74
Nearer Nature Store

Today we're found eco friendly not tested on animals Divine Herbal Hair oils, a bottle of which can last up to three months. Based in the UK, we found this product at  Nearer Nature  doesn't load their store with "fake green products" but instead hand selects and tests them on subscribers before releasing them to the market. 

It's true, a growing number of people are fed up with the abundance of beauty and personal care products on the market that may contain harmful ingredients and not knowing which products or brands to trust.  Just because something says "green" or "eco friendly" is it really? 


Nearer Nature
Natural Oils and Ingredients Hold Claims to Strengthen and Thicken vs Chemicals

This divine hair oil infuses 21 different essential and botanical carrier oils and 10 botanical extracts to stimulate hair growth. Penetrating deep into the scalp it is said to repair damaged hair follicles which may help hair to grow stronger and more healthy.   What's more it's produced in small batch quantities in the UK. 

One bottle retails for 24.95 pounds which equates to about $38.74 for a bottle, keep in mind this repair lasts for up to three months!  

This is a great way to :

• Helps to promote thicker, healthier and shinier hair. 
• Helps to prevent hair loss. 
• Works to improve hair volume. 
• Helps to increase hair strength and elasticity. 
• Works to alleviate dandruff and other scalp conditions.

Bake Sale Held for Local Tornado Relief


  My sister, Jessica Woody with Eco-Friendly Freckles, and I (Andrea Scott with Storybook Artifact) held a local bake sale this last weekend to help raise funds for two families who lost their homes due to an EF2 tornado that recently struck my neighborhood.  It was amazing to see who all came out to support us: such a caring community of people.  We also collected other donations: children's clothing and supplies.  My children even helped us out too; with my son dressed as our little mascot in firefighter costume, and my daughter sampling the cookies.






FOX23 News Coverage of Bake Sale:

TulsaWorld Article on Supported Families:

Residents clean up following tornados, severe storms 




  From the home baked treats contributed by caring locals to the generous donations made from those within our community, it has been such a miraculous thing to see so many people who care.  We may not all personally know these families, but their stories do touch us in a way that hits home. ... A goal was really never made, but we did break $1000! To be exact: $1092, which gives $546 to each of the two families whom we were raising funds for. ... Thank you all for the support and we'd like to specially thank: FOX23 News, Tulsa's Channel 8, BA Homeschoolers, members of Destiny Church, Gavco Plastics, Red's Pizzeria, Oneta Wine & Spirits, and Broken Arrow Firefighters.
