ebay holiday finds!

+ method hollyberry and snowy days candle and gel hand wash/lotion duo set - $10.00 (starting bid) + $10.79 shipping - Whoa! Did Santa not get you what you were wishing for this Christmas? Well, if so, perhaps this might make you ho ho happy! We're talking an old school (and that bold should be bolded!) package of hollyberry and snowy days candles snuggled warmly together with hollyberry hand wash and snowy days lotion (snowy days was one of method's very first holiday scents! It's really crisp, clean, and fresh smelling!) I haven't seen these in forever!

+ method hollyberry candle and gel hand wash set - $7.95 (Buy It Now price) + $7.15 shipping - Or if you just have an eternal lusting for hollyberry, and miss method's rad candles, you can pick up this (still old school!) holiday gift set!

Either way, don't miss out! (And don't you wonder sometimes where in the world the stuff from ebay comes from? I mean, seriously? Do people just keep this ancient stuff in their basement for a rainy ebay day? All the better for us, I say!)

naughty or nice?

Make sure you take a moment from your sugar cookies and eggnog to check out method's sweet little "Are Your Hands Naughty or Nice?" game! It's clean fun (and there are cute method bottle designed snowflakes, too!)

Sorry I've been incognito as of late! I've been workin' like a mad man, and honestly have barely had time to breathe, let alone update the delightful method lust! I promise to try harder, but you know, perhaps after the holiday season (not much method news happening at the moment, anyway!) Hey, stop reading this, and go play the game!

copycat? - hand wash

So, an homage or an (unlicensed) copy cat? What are your thoughts? (I saw these bottles at my local Big Lots this week. They're made by Swissco.) They even make them in pink grapefruit and french lavender scents. Hmm...

method holiday 2010!

method's holiday hand washes are finally starting to hit Target stores nationwide! Now the ho, ho, holidays can officially begin!

I noticed an end cap of method hand washes at my local Target today! Interestingly enough it was an entire end cap filled with your every day method hand wash scents (including the foaming hand washes that I could have sworn were discontinued from Target?! Maybe they brought them back for a bit to fill shelf space?) but on the second from top shelf sat hollyberry, cinnamon bark, and peppermint vanilla! So when you're out and about running over old ladies and beating down children this Black Friday, make sure to pick up some bottles of holiday method hand wash!

Now, just as interesting was, on the very top shelf of this method end cap sat a new brand of hand wash I'd never heard of, in three holiday scents! The brand was motif, and the scents were cyprus and pear, pomegranate and rose, and peppermint bark. The peppermint bark smells exactly like method's peppermint vanilla, the pomegranate and rose smelled like fruity roses (how this is a Christmas scent is beyond me?!) but the cyprus and pear scent! Oh my! It's like the light scent of christmas trees meets a fresh slice of pear! I'll definitely be picking this up! (How I wish Target was also carrying another year round scent of theirs, citrus zest and ginger. It's fresh ginger blended with zesty orange and lime with the warmth of clove and nutmeg. How holiday does that sound?! Wow!)

I did some research (well, what I could) into the brand, and found out it's made by Daub & Dauble, an upscale cleaning line (which is actually made by a company called Goodwell & Company.) The bottles definitely look like Daub & Dauble (with their cute wallpaperish bottle patterns.) Does anyone know if this company is a green/environmentally-friendly brand? All I've found on the motif site are a couple of comments including "naturally formulated with aloe, biodegradable and recyclable" (that sounds pretty green to me, right?) and "outside's as good as their insides" which sorta sound green, but actually could just be talking about the cute bottle designs and fragrances. So if anyone has any info., please comment!

lavender cedar lust!

(As the Kool-Aid man would say) Oh yeah! Look what just popped up at Target! Our favorite lavender cedar laundry detergent, now in a 50-load bottle! (Sarah Stich should be so excited!)

So next time you stop in to Target, be sure to look for this big boy in the detergent section! And as you're walking down the aisle, be sure to proudly shout out loud for everyone to hear "Mmm, awesomeness ahead!" No one will make fun of you, I promise! (Or I'll come smack'em! You have my word. Really! Well, unless I'm off that day. I only work half days on Tuesdays and Thursdays. And I'm usually off on Sundays. But otherwise, I'll smack'em! Alright, well, maybe just whisper it to yourself as you walk down the aisle "(mmm, awesomeness ahead.)" That'll do.)

guest post - ho ho holidays

So the holidays are here... sort of. Have you already decked the halls? Are you counting down the shopping days left? Already having the ever dreaded holiday office party? Craving method holiday scented hand soap?

What do you think of method not debuting their holiday line at Target until after Thanksgiving? Respect them for waiting to put the "Ho Ho" in holiday or is the waiting killing you like a kid on Christmas Eve? Share your thoughts.

Got a guest post you'd love to see on method lust? If so, all you have to do is send it to me via email! (It can't get any easier than that! No, no, it really can't. Stop being so lazy! It's just not possible.)

bag it!

Check out this amazing documentary from Suzan Beraza. The film examines the impact of plastics on the environment, marine animals and human health. (And we all know what method lust (Nathan Aaron) thinks of plastic bags! Evil!)

Lots more information can be found on the official website!

creamy came back!

Well, well, well... look what's back for a return engagement! method's moisturizing creamy hand wash in coconut cream + honey, and cucumber + aloe! The hand wash has been repackaged using method's hand sanitizer style bottles. And they're hitting Target shelves as you read this! (Literally, like some guy is probably placing these bottles onto shelves at your local Target store at this very moment! Sorta crazy, isn't it?!) - Thanks to method luster Jason for sending me this pic!
