Goodbye or see you again?

Howdy folks!

The time in Australia is running out for us and we have to get back to Europe soon. But what are we gonna do then? Do you think the customs will let us get back to Germany with tons of the delicious Sneaky Squirrel coffee scrub? What if they seize it? Sneaky Squirrel has to expand its shipping worldwide urgently… or at least to Germany! 😜 

We want to give a big thank you to Ana and Benni for the awesome time and work together as well as our readers, supporters and followers. We had the great chance to discover this product and we fell in love with it so bad. So we really hope that Sneaky Squirrel will go worldwide very soon and we can keep using it.

See you later!

All the best

Amelie, Phil and Thea

True facts

The Sneaky Squirrel doesn’t steal at all. It usually involves some money exchange. But only with Aussie suppliers - who only have premium quality natural ingredients.

Men’s skin care does matter!

Over the last ten years the society has been changing and more and more men are taking care of their skin. The fact that the men’s skin care industry has been skyrocketing makes us wonder whether this is just a marketing trend or a real consumer need.

What do you think? Is skin care only a women’s thing?

Happy mother’s day!

Hello Ladies,

Mother’s day is coming up and we use this as an opportunity to dedicate this blog post to all expecting mothers.

First of all our best wishes to you and your growing family! The present of life is one of the best presents ever and so you do everything to protect him/her from the very beginning.

This is the reason why we now recommend to stop scrubbing with coffee scrub for that time of pregnancy. Your munchkin isn’t ready yet to deal with the caffeine that your skin absorbs over the pores while scrubbing.

In general it’s been said that you shouldn’t take more than 200 mg of caffeine a day while being pregnant. But to be on a save side you better try to avoid any caffeine. 

For all the caffeine junkies out there:

1 cup instant coffee = 100 mg

1 cup filtered coffee = 140 mg

1 cup tea = 75 mg

1 cup green tea = 50 mg

1 can cola = 40 mg

1 can energy-drink = 80 mg

As soon as you are done with breastfeeding you can get back to old scrubbing habits. It even helps stretching marks and toning and firming your skin.

Hot mama alert!

Everything happens on the website. You find the shop on the top of the page where you get to the product. Choose the number of packages you like to purchase and add it to the cart.

Why you need more than just a scrub

Good evening fellas,

After a weekend in the tropical rainforest we came home after a three and a half hour flight. The first thing we did was peeling the plane dirt with Sneaky Squirrel away. Lovely! Ok, in the shower, you probably have to use an industrial body wash shower gel to remove the essential dirt first. But some of you out there might have even more and longer in-shower and after shower rituals with different skin care products.

What are you using and what would you wish Sneaky Squirrel to replace in your bathroom?

We have one major wish. Before peeling too often we would love to have an in-shower body lotion, with that same smell of the scrub. Then you could step out of the shower already moisturized. Our non-vegan one smells horrible compared to the awesome body scrub.

Wishlist:

- natural in-shower moisturizer - delicious smell - organic and vegan - cruelty free - preservative free

Can you help Sneaky Squirrel?

Hang in there!

It is that time of the year where the only answer to: ‘How’s your life going?’ is the simple and frustrating one: ‘Well, Uni you know...”.

Everything that was procrastinated throughout the semester gets back at you, since tons of assessments are due and exams are coming up. Especially in a time like this it’s important for you to take well-intentioned breaks. Your mind works better in a rested state anyway!

Some simple tips to survive the rush hour without a burn out are:

Power Naps- We love this one the most! But make sure you do not nap longer than 25 minutes because your body will start distributing hormones that put you into a deep sleeping phase. So a long nap only makes you even more tired. An easy trick to control yourself is to put a bunch of keys in your hand; once you are asleep quite deep they fall out of your hand and wake you up. Works for sure!

 Hydrate yourself- And we mean water J … everyone knows the benefits of drinking at least 2 litres of water a day. Make sure you bring a bottle to the library and place it next to you. Once it’s there you will notice that you automatically drink more.

Take breaks to rest your mind- change your surroundings by taking a walk around in the neighbourhood or doing sports.

Scrub your body regularly- Sneaky Squirrel has a stress releasing smell with rose oil and jaffa, while the scrubbing movements animate your blood circulation. Depending on the temperature of your shower this will relax you deeply or makes you wide awake. In anyways, you’ll be ready for the next study round

Body Scrub & Fake Tan? Perfect Combination!

Good morning to all our tanned friends out there,

Good news! As the time of the year starts where a natural tan is just not realistic anymore, we have a sneaky little detail for you. No-one will find out that your tan is not from your last Bali vacation, but from a brown little bottle if you scrub before tanning!

The coarse coffee grinds help to remove all the little bumps and flakes from your skin that would cause your faked tan to appear uneven. But for the perfect streak free tan, take care to scrub the day before you tan, since oils are awesome for your skin but not for the tanning product. You can also just use your favourite body wash to remove the oil before tanning if you do not like waiting too much.

 Once you notice your tan is not perfect anymore, use the body scrub to remove the left orange appearing spots easily from your skin. The combination of oils and coffee do a perfect job on that and you will be ready to go for your next tanning round.

You see that scrubbing and fake tanning are the perfect combination, no matter if you scrub before tanning or after the tan is faded.

You’re welcome ;)

Never forget to take care of your shell

Hello to all squirrels out there!

L’Oréal, Lush, Body Shop, Sukin, Estée Lauder, Dior, Nivea, Sneaky Squirrel … what are your favourite skin care products and how do you choose them? Do you actually observe where your products come from and what is inside of it? It’s important to use the right product and not just any random one because every skin is different and has different needs. By the way - did you know that your skin changes over the time? Especially changes of the weather conditions can burden your shell. The best thing to find out which product suits you is to analyse your skin texture. How to do that? It’s quit easy. There are lots of self tests available on several web pages or you can go to your cosmetician next door who will probably do it for free. But in case you’re too lazy to leave your apartment just use one of the links that you’ll find at the end of this post.

One of the most important things is to let your skin relax and give it some rest for one or two days a week. That means: no make up and just natural products to let it regenerate. Clean your face every morning and evening to get rid of all the dirt and dust collected during the day. If you have a dry skin you have to make sure that it gets enough moisture. What really helps is to apply aloe vera gel under your daily skin care cream because it gives you extra moisture. 

Get rid of dead skin layers and use the right peeling that suits you. Sneaky Squirrel helps you with that. It’s not just removing the old skin, it also maintains your face optimally. 

Now it’s up to you - tell us what skin care products you use and which you can’t recommend!

Breathe In - Breathe Out

Namaste to all our squirrels!

Permanent tension freaks us humans out. We are just not made for constant demanding circumstances and need our personal space to hide away from everyday challenges.

Many rely on yoga as a way to escape the daily routine and to concentrate on body and soul. It actually is quite impressive how deeply relaxed you walked out of it, even after you fell on the floor like three times when trying to do the Warrior Three Pose.

If deep breaths and The Downward Facing Dog pose do not really bring you any closer to being relaxed, just remember that Sneaky Squirrel Body Scrub is a great option to treat yourself with a break. Even if they declared war to dry, flaky and dull looking skin, they do love inner peace.

Sneaky Squirrel created the scent of the scrub as a perfect relaxing treatment for yourself, while you are exfoliating and stimulating the body with ingredients like coffee. Focusing on body and soul, we are almost as good as yoga.

So, breathe in breathe out and take a scrub!

[vu4squirrel-blog]

Do you even scrub?

Hello to all beautiful scrubbers out there!

You’ve never used a peeling before? Then you should start NOW! 

It’s important to scrub your body minimum 2 times a week to get rid of dead skin layers. Sneaky Squirrel helps you with that. It’s not just removing the old skin, it also maintains your face and skin optimally. 

But how do you use the product? It’s easy. Just splash some water on the parts of your body you wanna scrub and then massage the Body scrub as long as you want to. But be careful when scrubbing your face keep in mind that your face skin is more sensitive. While scrubbing your fighting against your cellulite, acne and dry skin.  After scrubbing wait around 5-10 minutes and let the scrub rest a little bit. And last but not least take a shower or wash it from your face.

Now you’re thinking ‘is it really that easy?’ Yes it is! And you don’t even have to put body lotion on because the Sneaky Squirrel Body scrub is full of different oils that are nourishing your skin.

Plant eaters? Pah, not for us!

G’day meat eaters!

Vegan? What is it? We as carnivores always think when we hear somebody’s vegan that they’re just eating vegetables.  But today we wanna explain you what ‘vegan’ actually means because obviously most of us don’t really know that. It’s not just about food, it’s about lifestyle. Veganism is a special form of vegetarianism where people don’t consume any animal products at all. Vegan living people don’t just live without meat and fish, furthermore they don’t use any animal products like milk, eggs or honey. Living vegan does not just mean to eat vegan. It’s also about things like clothes, which means they don’t wear leather, wool or silk. Even cosmetics can be vegan but are still difficult to find. Not sure if you guys heard about Sukin, but it’s a 100% vegan Australian cosmetic brand which we can definitely recommend from experience. Unfortunately many of the large cosmetic companies, like L’Oréal, still use animal testing to produce their skin care which we think is not necessary anymore. Many people think that natural cosmetics is the same as vegan cosmetics - FALSE! Natural cosmetics can still contain animal products like lanolin. SneakySquirrel is another example for 100% cruelty free skin care. It’s all herbal only and made with love and passion. A few weeks ago The Huffington Post published a video that shows how the world would change if every single human being would live vegan or at least vegetarian. If you wanna have a look at the video we’ll add the URL at the end of this post. Probably all of you heard of PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals). It’s the world’s largest animal rights organisation which fights against factory farming, fur farms, animals testing and the meat industry. They want to show everybody that we as human beings can live without using animals for our wellbeing.

Don’t worry, we don’t want to convince you to turn your lifestyle around and live vegan. But please, SAY NO TO ANIMAL TESTING!!

Coconut Oil Tips & Tricks

We already revealed the secret for you that coconut oil is one ingredient of the Sneaky Squirrel body scrub. Today we present to you a few tips and tricks how coconut oil by itself can change your beauty routine and will benefit your skin and body. As this all natural product is gaining more eminence already, not only in the cosmetic industry but as a cooking hack too, you can easily find coconut oil on a shelf of your favorite grocery store. But let’s get started ….

The most obvious benefit of coconut oil is that it hydrates your skin without any nasty chemicals hidden. You can use it to hydrate your legs after you shaved them and even replace your shaving gel with it, at its prevents ingrown hairs as well.  It’s said to reduce razor burn and you will have a beautiful shiny skin for your upcoming date.

We also love to use it as a cuticle oil. It will hydrate your skin and loosen up the cuticles. Plus, it keeps the germs out of there! Give the rest of your hands a bit of extra moisture as well with it, so your manicure looks salon made.

Apply some coconut oil on your lashes to enhance them. You should notice after treating yourself with it regularly that they grow thicker and longer, while less lashes fall out.

Since we are in Australia you guys should love the last tip: It can be used as a sunburn relief as well. When you are sick of that aloe vera stuff, give coconut oil a try. It can rehydrate the skin as it helps soothe inflamed skin. But remember prevention is the best when it comes to sunburns!

We hope you find these ones helpful and can integrate them in your daily routine just like scrubbing with sneaky squirrel.
