We just cleaned out the makeup drawer (read about it here). Now we should make sure the tools we use are good and clean too. I don’t know what kind of tools you have but you probably have some of the same ones I have. Blush brush, eye shadow brush, nail trimmers, tweezers, and eyelash brush. The eye shadow, blush brush, and eye liner brush can be cleaned the same way. Warm water and a little bit of Beautycounter’s cleansing balm. You haven’t heard of the cleansing balm before? It’s …

I want to be very honest with you. I spent YEARS avoiding sunscreen. And I am still not the best at remembering. I avoided it so well one time, that I burnt the tops of my feet. I was probably around 15 or so. My mom had told me a few times to …
I want this blog to be a place you want to come to for information that you want. I’ve been racking my mind for a month and a half for a worth while topic for the month of May. I feel like I have failed. Any idea I had just wasn’t good enough. Then I had a thought! Why don’t I just ask my readers what they want to know. So… What do you want me to write about next? Are you interested in sunscreen? Maybe more about my life? …
What is safer beauty? Well to me it’s taking the time to look at what is in my products and knowing if those ingredients could cause my family any long term harm. It’s also understanding what the government can and can’t do when a product is found to be harmful to the public. Which by the way is very little. There hasn’t been an updated law regarding our personal care products since 1938. And the FDA doesn’t have to approve any products before they hit the shelves. Neither can they …
