This post contains affiliate links that I do make a small commission on if you click them. They come at no extra cost to you. Please read my disclaimer page for more information. Let’s talk hair. We all have it (well, most of us do) and it’s something that you have to maintain. I know when my hair looks good, I feel super confident. Who else has a obsession with their hair?

The fact that 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer and 40 years ago it was 1 in 20 is hard to take in. My mother was diagnosed with breast cancer and leukemia when I was younger and it has really made a long lasting impact on me. Not only do I want to make sure that I reduce my toxic load in all the ways I can, I strive to help others understand why it matters so much about the makeup products we use on our skin. We are applying things to our body that absorb into our bloodstream through the surface of our skin. Makeup,…

How Often Do You Clean Your Makeup Brushes?
How often do you clean your makeup brushes? Let’s talk about it. This is a safe space and I won’t judge you. I’ll even be super upfront and share that up until a few years ago I NEVER EVER washed my makeup brushes… I would just replace them as they stopped working. I didn’t realize that they weren’t working because they were so dirty. What a ditz! Anyway, I PROMISE… I won’t judge but I really wanna know about this cleaning of the brushes situation so PLEASE share. Here is why I asked about the cleaning of your makeup brushes. I bet you didn’t know that the average makeup brush…
