My Must Have For Zits!
Have you ever used charcoal in your skincare? It has become my favorite multipurpose product in my nontoxic journey for a multitude of reasons! My skin is acne prone so charcoal really works wonders with my break outs. Story time: If you go into a hospital, you’ll see charcoal being used to treat overdoses.

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.

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…
