The shopping malls have already decked their halls. Rather than stressing and reaching for the nearest glass of rum and eggnog (is that even out yet?), we've decided to avoid the crowds.
How? With Fizziewicks.
This new one-stop shop for affordable bath products will customize to whatever design, fragrance, herbs, botanicals and colour we desire - and we can do it all from the comfort of our computer. Using goat's milk from B.C., as well as shea and cocoa butter, their soaps make us feel like we're bathing in pure luxury.
The Zodiac soap ($5, available in all signs of the horoscope) is the perfect match for our fellow cosmic friends. For the snowbirds on our list that miss those changing leaves, the Feng Shui Four Seasons set ($15 for set of 4), brings the scent of the different seasons home to them. Tiddy Teddy ($4) soaps, made for the smallest of hands, will have the little ones in our life non-stop washing to find the toys hidden inside (our latest weapon against the cold and flu season).
And we can't forget ourselves. The Foot Scrubby ($6) foot-shaped peppermint loofah soap is the perfect treat after all this shopping. (Even if we never left our chair.)
