What Does a Nontoxic + High Performing Makeup Bag Look Like?
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.

This post is in partner with Kavella. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Please read my disclaimer page for more information. It is no secret that I like to keep my hair as blonde as possible! Because of that, I spend a pretty penny at the salon to achieve this look every couple of months. Right now, my hair is probably the blondest it’s ever been and I try to keep it as icy as I can between trips to the salon. If you color your hair, you know the struggle is real when it comes to keeping it looking fresh! For the last 8 years I have been…

Say goodbye to Summer: how to transition your beauty products to Fall!
With the seasons changing, it’s time to break out the sweaters, boots, pumpkins. It’s also time to take inventory of summer makeup and skincare and transition into fall colors and products for more hydration. I personally love taking a new season as inspiration to switch up what I am currently using for skincare and also play with makeup looks. This time of year, the weather does transition to colder, which is the gateway for you to reevaluate skincare needs. When I was younger, I thought that whatever skincare I used would work forever. That is NOT the case and it’s actually good to switch up your skincare throughout the year.…
