Hey there! You guys might remember than I’m semi-obsessed (ok, obsessed) with the charcoal deodorant from Primally Pure. I’ve used it for quite awhile now, and I’m officially hooked. I honestly don’t think I’ll ever switch deodorants because I just love it so much. (I know, it’s a little ridiculous professing my love for deodorant, but it was a journey to find one this amazing!) Before officially falling in love with the charcoal deodorant from…

It’s that time of the year again… Beautycounter’s Friends + Family is back!!! WHAT: 15% off site-wide* WHEN: Today – August 12, 2019 WHY YOU SHOULD SHOP: Beautycounter hardly ever offers percentage-off sales like this one. Their promos are typically a free gift with purchase with a minimum order of $100+, so a straight-up discount with no minimum is a BIG DEAL! It’s a great time to restock on your go-to favorites or try something you’ve been eyeing. Have…

If you haven’t heard the news yet, Primally Pure launched a new line of facial serums. Woohoo! It includes 3 varieties, each for a different skin care concern: Clarifying, Pumping, and Soothing (with 300mg CBD). The nice folks from Primally Pure actually sent me the Clarifying and Pumping serums to try out, and, so far, they’re incredible. (The Soothing will be available at the end of July.) Both serums smell amazing, and I love the…

Mal had quite the birthday this year – complete with 4 different celebrations! Woohoo! Celebration #1: Family party Mal’s birthday celebration officially kicked off the day before with a family “Euro party” at home. And, of course, no family party would be complete without Mal’s beloved Funfetti cake. We make it for him every year! 🙂 Quinn was ALL about baking Funfetti cupcakes, so I picked him up early from school to get a jumpstart…

So, I’ve raved before about my love for Primally Pure Charcoal Deodorant, and I get lots of questions about why I made the switch from conventional to natural deodorant as well as my thoughts on the dreaded “detox” phase (more on that below). Prior to discovering brands like Beautycounter and Primally Pure, I didn’t pay much attention to the skin care and beauty products I was using. I figured if it’s being sold in stores,…

You may already know this, but it’s worth saying again: What you put ON YOUR body is just as important as what you put IN YOUR body. Every single day, we’re exposed to all sorts of toxins – from the foods we eat and the water we drink to the air we breathe and more – so it’s important to make changes that are within our control, like the beauty products we choose to apply…
