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.

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 had no desire to join the Beautycounter movement until I realized how much I loved Beautycounter makeup. I ordered and tried a bottle of the Tint Skin foundation by Beautycounter and that was the first product I tried and one of my all time favorites. Earlier this year, it got a make over and upgraded into a skincare + makeup two in one and it really brought back memories on why exactly I fell in love after just trying ONE product.

We Deserve Better, Home Glow Up!
I don’t know about how y’all feel but the stress of the outside world right now is not something I can handle. Everything is really dramatic and.intense and I’m glad to be in a little bubble at home. I know that we are very lucky to both be able to work from home but the whole five kids at home and having to homeschool our oldest two is a pretty interesting combination right now and we are just trying to figure out a groove. One of the things that I am so very thankful for during this time is the ability to work on things that I’ve been wanting to…
