What I Wore: The Best Dressed Face

Some days I put extra thought into what I wear and some I don't. Can you relate? How about the face? How much thought goes into your skincare or make-up? For many women, I'd wager a lot based on the fact that the beauty industry is a multi-billion dollar industry! Whether it be with a skincare regime plus make-up or just a regimen, we are dressing our face up one way or the other. And I'd like to have "the best-dressed face", which I'd say is the healthiest our personal skin can be.

Though I believe that healthy, glowing skin begins with whole foods, plenty of hydration, and the right supplements where needed, it's nice to have some extra help. And by help, I mean wild-crafted, chemical-free goodness that is going to not only build up your skin but contribute to your overall wellbeing. How is it that I used to look at my body in parts when it functions as a whole? When one part of the system is out of whack it affects the overall function. It all comes down to cells, but that's as far into science that I'd like to delve for one post. Ha!

If you've followed this blog for a while then you may have seen posts on essential oils, clean deodorant, and clean makeup. Well, today I am elated to introduce my latest love in beauty...MIG, aka, Might In Good. 

DIY Face Care With Simply Earth Essential Oils

Hello! I'm back with another essential oil recipe box from Simply Earth. Their DIY recipes are for amateurs and pros alike with opportunity for adventure in each box. Last month I teamed up with my boys for engaging kid recipes, but this month is perfect for some girl time! My sister-in-law was in town visiting so I took full advantage.  With her mutual love for essential oils and beauty products, she was the perfect partner in DIY fun. I hope you enjoy today's August box reveal, featuring recipes to care for that beautiful face of yours!

Valentine's Day With Saranghae Skincare: My Year Long Love Story

How has 13 months already passed since my first review on Saranghae's 5 Step Korean skincare routine?? I was so excited to get my first box of Saranghae, especially after reading through their website and the customer reviews.  I wanted to feel good about what I was putting on my skin, but I also wanted it to WORK - boy did I want it to work! Well, that box did not disappoint (see my first review HERE) and about four months later I ordered my second box. Now I'm on the third and am happy to share a recap of my year long love story with this fabulous skincare company! *Oh! I made a video too!!! You'll find that at the end. :)

Simply Earth Essential Oils: The February Makeup Box

Hello my dears! Once again I'm delighted to share a creative Essential Oil recipe box from Simply Earth. Last month my skin relished the extra spoiling with homemade body butter, lip scrubs and chapsticks, which perfectly prepared it for this month's "barn painting". Ever heard that expression? I lived in the south for most of my life sooo...anyway, all that to say, this month we are playing with makeup!!!

Simply Earth's January Box: Nourishing Skincare With Bergamot, Ravensara, Myrrh and Farewell Scars Blend

January's subscription box awaits! (If you missed my intro to Simply Earth's EOs, hop on over HERE!) Is one of your goals to have a healthier you? So often we focus our health efforts solely on food and exercise. While this positively integral, our largest organ is often neglected! Once upon a time no one questioned sulfates, acetone, fragrance and ethanol in the ingredient lists of skin care, cosmetics and shampoos.  Even now, when I know those chemicals are harmful, I still continue to use them from time to time. Factors such as cost, convenience and dare I say, "results" often steer me to fabricated, but luscious scents to achieve my dream skin and hair.
