People always ask me to evaluate the products they are using.
They know my standards for skincare are the highest in the industry and they wonder how “natural” and “organic” the products they are using are compared to the promises they are making.
Many times, I have to disappoint them with news that the products they are using contain chemicals that cause cancer, hormone disruptors, neurological toxins, immune impairing, are known allergens, and cause premature aging inside and out.
Is it just me or is it safe to say this has been the most stressful summer of the century? Finding “calm” now is more important than ever...but sometimes, juggling family with work can literally seem to endure the entire 24 – making it hard to squeeze in the “ME TIME” we all need to relieve and reset our mind and body of the weight that stress can bring.
Desperate Times call for Desperate Measures...so, let’s get blending and let the bliss begin with this Lavender and Relaxation Smoothie!
Although it sounds like it, that wasn’t a trick question… I promise!
You use the word to describe your favorite smell, but what
about your favorite skincare ingredient?
Same spelling and pronunciation, fragrance is used interchangeably
but the meanings of this word couldn’t be more different.
As a working mother of three, I’ve quickly learned that smoothies are the perfect way for me (and my kids) to get a daily dose of health-benefiting, immune-boosting nutrients, all while on-the-go. They hit all my requirements: yummy, easy, quick, and healthy!
This week’s smoothie is packed with nutrient-rich and delicious ingredients like turmeric. With just one sip, you’ll quickly realize “youth” never tasted so good! “Youth”?
I have searched long and far for a snack bar and protein shake that tastes amazing, is made with shitake and Rishi mushrooms for their immune-boosting support, sweetened with natural and non-gut irritating monk fruit and made for women!!
I'm tired of forcing myself to eat another bar just because I'm starving! I'm tired of protein shakes that taste like chalk... or worse, fake chocolate and horrible vanilla!
It passes ALL of my requirements for healthy and nutritious:
✔ 15g protein
✔ plant-based
✔ gluten-free
✔ keto-friendly
✔️ zero sugar
✔ dairy-free
✔ vegan (not a requirement for me, but for many)
✔ soy-free
✔ non-GMO
✔ high in fiber, aka 💩-friendly
✔ paleo-friendly
✔ kid-friendly and ❤️. Mom approved
I love olive oil! I DO!!! I add it to soups, sauces and I LOVE it on my salads for a healthy and natural pop of flavor. If you love olive oil like I do and use it just as much as I do, I’m certain you want to make sure you’re choosing the healthiest option.
