"Wait, YOU Post About Makeup?"

"Wait, YOU Post About Makeup?"

The other day, a friend of mine who is not so much with the Instagram, was surprised to learn that I post and write about makeup on my account there. You see, dear readers, she sees me every day and witnesses, in-person, the very scant amount of visible cosmetics I wear on the daily.

Clean and Green Beauty: A Round-Up

Clean and Green Beauty: A Round-Up

For 10 days on social media last month, I shared some of my most favorite clean and green beauty products.  This post is a recap of the selects I featured, but with a bonus: we’re gonna take a look into the background of the amazing companies that make these wonderful products. All of these businesses were started by real people, with real stories, following real inspiration. These folks led with the heart, not with the wallet: not a one is a spin-off of some giant toxic company just trying to get in on a so-called “niche” market.

I’m Not a Green Beauty Blogger….

I’m Not a Green Beauty Blogger….

…but for the next 10 days, I’m going to play one on Social Media.

In honor of Senators Dianne Feinstein and Susan Collins introducing the Personal Care Products Safety Act, I’m going to focus on clean and green beauty for the next 10 days on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter. Whoopah!

Did you know that according to the non-profit Environmental Working Group (EWG), most women put at least 168 different chemicals on their bodies A DAY, and men, 85? And virtually NONE of these chemicals are regulated or tested for safety. In fact, Feinstein and Collins say that what regulatory laws DO exist have barely changed since the 1930s.* Dayum.

Two Weeks Vegan: Um, Why?

Two Weeks Vegan: Um, Why?

So, we recently finished yet another vegan detox. Or as we like to call it, Two Weeks Vegan. As usual, we had a bumpy start, a happy middle, and an energetic, great-feeling end.

But this time something was different.

Every once in a while my husband and I do a vegan detox. No meat, no dairy. No caffeine, no alcohol, and no sugar. For two weeks.
