How To Rock a Clean Statement Lip

by on

Happy Sunday bunnies! After posting this photo a lot of you asked me to break down the details in a new blog so, your wish is my command! I wore this look last week to attend the Shop Indie event and loved how bold the lip turned out. I really did not love my outfit, it felt a tad boring so my solution to every so-so outfit is always a statement lip. Not only does it totally transform the look, but it’s also really such an easy thing that just about anyone can do. So, next time you are not loving your outfit, opt for a bold lip for a fun change! Also, if you notice, I really keep my makeup the same and simply tweak a few things here and there which means you really will get a ton of use from the items below.

Organic Spicy Red Lentil Mushroom Pasta

by on

As many of you know, Kyle and I have been on a plant-based diet since the start of the new year and honestly, we are obsessed with all of our meals, mostly due to finding a Vegan cheese that contains no soy and actually melts! At first changing to a plant-based diet seems overwhelming and impossible, especially for those meat and cheese loving men like Kyle but so far, we’re so good, we actually have been loving our meals so much we barely go out to eat anymore which is not only better on our health but our wallets as well. I definitely do not have time to blog like a professional food blogger so I apologize in advance if you were hoping for better pics or details ?

Swap It Out- Face Wipes

by on
Do you know what’s hiding in your favorite facial wipe? Take these Oil of Olay wipes for example, the very first ingredient is Petrolatum, followed by PEG-100, two Parabens, lab-made fragrances, Phenoxyethanol, Disodium EDTA, more PEGs, and various other irritating ingredients, not to mention, they are owned by Proctor & Gamble, a brand that still actively tests on animals.
When choosing a facial wipe, or any skincare product for that matter, I also choose fragrance-free as synthetic {fragrance} can have various links to allergic reactions and hormone disruptions. I also personally avoid the use of controversial {Parabens} as there are many studies finding they may cause healthy cells to turn into cancerous cells and more hormone disruptions. Many brands then replace Parabens with {Phenoxyethanol} which still has similar links to skin irritations and is considered a potential neurotoxin. Another synthetic I avoid is {PEG-100} as it has links to kidney toxicity with the possibility of being contaminated with carcinogens.
