The Best Blush You’ll Ever Have
Hey y’all! So I’m gonna be real and share that I normally do my makeup in the car (thank you Flawless in Five) but, when I do get to sit down and do my makeup at home I love playing with colors. The easiest way to switch up your makeup other the your lipstick is your blush! A good blush is a game changer when you talk about makeup. I’m being serious! Wearing a blush when you put on makeup really helps bring life to your face and also adds dimension. I love that you can use this to top off a glam look or only put this on when…

Grove: A Simple Way to Switch to Safer
Good morning and happy Monday ya’ll! I am really digging all the switching to safer that ya’ll are pushing forward with during Spring. I know that most of us use Spring as an excuse to clean out our closets, declutter, organize, deep clean and change out things that we want to change. One of the things that I’ve loved helping ya’ll do is switch out your home, beauty and personal care products. I know this can be an overwhelming place to start and I really do commend you for making this a BIG step in changing to a non toxic lifestyle. Finding ways to make this transition easier really does…

Raised Garden Beds and Our Love for Growing Our Food

I also stocked up on a few plants for our garden and I cannot wait to share more about it all with you! When we lived in Lake View and Nolan was around one, we planted our first garden. I remember wanting to do better for our family in…

Stinkbug Naturals
When I transitioned to a non toxic lifestyle, finding a deodorant free of chemicals but controls BO has been challenging. After five years, I can finally say that I found one that meets my standards. Stinkbug Naturals has been a lifesaver for my husband, Derrek, and myself. I have always been a “stinky” girl, to the point that I had prescribed antiperspirant when I was in college. I’ve bounced around from brand to brand and found that the most toxic deodorant would cover my smell. After looking at the many different deodorants and their ingredients in my bathroom drawer, I tossed them all and decided to go without. Ummmmm, my husband kindly let…

Why You Need A Naturepedic Mattress
This post is in partner with Naturepedic. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Please read my disclaimer page for more information. I am SO pumped about this feature because it’s a biggie. The need for an organic mattress never occurred to me until I started looking into options for the kids. To be honest, Derrek and I were given a mattress as a wedding gift from his parents so we didn’t get to pick that out. I didn’t care about any feature for a mattress other than was it soft enough for me. I cannot stand a hard mattress. Derrek on the other hand loves a hard mattress. The…
