What’s in mainstream DEO and what nontoxic brand I swear by
I’m so glad that Beautycounter finally perfected their deo game because their formula is better than any nontoxic deo I’ve ever tried. Just FYI, I’ve tried over 15 brand in my quest for safer deodorant. In case you’re wondering “what is Beautycounter?” this is a brand with a longtime commitment to natural ingredients and sustainable packaging. It’s taken years to formulate the Clean Deos from Beautycounter, but why? Allure Magazine had this to say “The five-year holdup was due in part to Beautycounter’s insistence on housing the new deodorant in recyclable, refillable packaging (a first for the brand). Like many other beauty products, deodorant is often made with mixed materials,…

Immunity Boosting With Wedderspoon Manuka Gummies
This is a sponsored post with Wedderspoon. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Please read my disclaimer page for more information. One of the things that I make sure my family and I do is immune boost as needed with vitamins and supplements. As a family, we focus first with fueling our bodies with nutrient filled foods – incorporating Manuka honey in this as well. I’ve trusted Wedderspoon Manuka for years as the best Manuka honey for quality and taste. One of the reasons I rave about this superfood is because Manuka honey is brimming with living enzymes & potent chemical compounds and Wedderspoon raw Manuka is flavorable and…

What I Eat In Day – Ideas For Healthy + Fresh Options
This post is in partner with Daily Harvest. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Please read my disclaimer page for more information. I’ll be honest I’ve been really intimidated to sit down and really write out a play-by-play of the foods that I eat. It’s one of the most frequent questions that I asked and every time I sit down at the computer end up freezing up and not writing the whole thing. At this point in my life, I have decided to eliminate all fast foods, most processed foods, and focus on eating organic and fresh high-quality foods. My tastes do change often but I found I always…

What’s Hiding In The Air In Our Homes?
Since starting my own family, I’ve slowly learned about air purifying and why it’s a must for the inside of our homes. It was most definitely NOT my first swap when switching to a nontoxic lifestyle but one that I found extremely important after learning about laundry products we use that can cause air pollution in the air. That’s what made me have an AH HA! moment about what could be hiding in the air quality of own home. Since then I have been on a major quest to reduce the contaminates in any way I can. One of the major investments I’ve made for our home has been air…

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,…
