Maybe you’ve thought about switching from your regular drugstore brand eyeliner to something a bit more natural, but you’ve been concerned about the cost. I’ve seen “all-natural” eyeliners run as high as $30-40. That’s just way too much to spend on one little pencil. Well, let me offer a solution to your problem. I heard about [...]
Your Feet Will Thank You
Have you ever seen the As Seen On TV product Heeltastic? The one that promises to be the final solution for cracked, dry heels? I bought this after I was disappointed by several other products promising to make my feet smooth and ready-to-go for summer flip-flops. After trying Heeltastic for a few days I must [...]
Pool Party
If you’re headed to the pool this month, don’t pack your drugstore brand sunscreen from last summer. Instead, throw it in the trash and buy an all-natural sunscreen such as the one from Soleo Organics. Studies show that the chemicals found in sunscreens are absorbed through the skin and end up circulating in the blood [...]
Bronze Babe
I have never been big on sunless tanners. A girl I knew in elementary school was one of the first people to get into the whole sunless tanning craze. She was known for being orange. I can still see her splotchy hands now. So maybe I subconsciously associate the practice of sunless tanning with her…and [...]
A Morning Shot of Tequila
If your shower contains a bar of soap with the words Dove, Dial, Irish Spring, Ivory or Lever 2000 etched into the center, it’s time to make a change. Maybe you’ve used the same brand for years and can’t even conceive of what I’m suggesting. Well, if you need some motivation, start by reading this. After [...]
The Best Deli in Town
If you know anything about me, you already know I’m a huge proponent of raw/natural foods. I have my certification in plant-based nutrition from Cornell and have taken half a year’s worth of “cooking lessons” from an all-raw chef. So it only makes sense that I would be extremely attracted to The Body Deli from [...]
Bubbles Galore
Until about a month ago I hadn’t taken a bath in probably 15 years. But when we recently moved into a new house with a pretty awesome bathtub, I figured I’d better take at least one bath. One led to two which led to three and pretty soon I was on a hunt to find [...]
Help for Troubled Skin
I am constantly getting emails from readers asking about which all-natural and organic products are best for clearing up acne. This is where I have to be honest and say that I have yet to find an all-natural product line that totally clears acne. But here’s the thing: I do know of a set of [...]
In Love With Lip Balm
If you don’t already know why you should always use a 100% natural lip balm, read this post first. But if you already know how important it is to use something natural on your lips, what you may not know is which brand to choose when faced with an ever-increasing selection of “natural” lip balms [...]
All of That In One Little Pencil?
If I could only use one beauty product a day, it would probably be eyeliner. I don’t ever leave the house without at least a little bit on my upper lids. In years past, I was always on a hunt for the perfect eyeliner–one that would stay put and not disappear before dinner. I would [...]
