MOTD for Beauty X in LA!

I am usually so lazy so I thought a little glam was long overdue. All of the items I wore today can, of course, be found on the Organic Bunny store so I will link them all below!

Organic Bunny Wedding Makeup

Finally, the post you have been waiting for, the Organic Bunny wedding glam break down! Let me start off by saying, my makeup situation was pretty hectic as the green beauty MUA that I use for work projects decided to cancel on me less than a month before my wedding. Even after we did trials and had my green makeup plan entirely set, she still canceled as she said she got booked for some world tour with a celebrity which was a bummer because I was left with minimal time to find a replacement!

Nordstrom Launches Natural Beauty

You know times are changing when you walk into your local Nordstrom and, gasp… see some of your all-time favorite green beauty brands, right there, available to test out and buy! Talk about major, select Nordstrom retail locations are now fully stocked with some of the latest and greatest green beauty has to offer and I could not be more excited about this launch especially knowing that Nordstrom is one of the leading retailers! As you all know, one of the most frustrating parts about converting over to clean beauty is the fact that most products must be purchased online which can be a deal breaker for those that prefer sampling before they commit. Because of the increase in customer’s asking for cleaner beauty items in Nordstrom, they decided to make that dream into a reality, making it much more convenient for shoppers to grab their faves right there in store, hassle-free.

Considering I have been shopping at Nordstrom since I was born, thanks Mom, and also held a part-time job there in college, I can honestly say this is so amazing to see one of my favorite retailers hop on board a train I am oh-so-passionate about. To give you a better idea of how Nordstrom does green beauty, I figured I would walk you through my shopping experience! Besides picking up some old faves, I also picked out a few brand-new items to try which could be dangerous for my credit card to have so many green goodies, all in one place.

Hush + Dotti Black Liquid Eyeliner

A few of you have asked me about the eyeliner on in some recent photos and it’s this one by Hush + Dotti! I won’t say that I am super obsessed with this but, I do really like it a lot. I would say it’s a 9/10. My only complaint would be that it’s not solid jet black like I am used to, however, when layered it really does end up pretty dark and it’s not putting my health at risk.  I also really love the applicator wand. It’s a nice, firm, tapered brush making application super easy, so, really, I do like this a lot, I’m just being my usual critical self… definitely check it out if you’re in need of a clean new liquid liner!

Earrings- Some of you asked what brand they are and they are from Olive + Piper and my code works there too!

What’s Hiding in Your Favorite Chapstick!?

You know what it is, it’s Swap It Out Sunday which means today I will be encouraging everyone to take a closer look at their beauty routine, hopefully eliminating at least one bad guy from the bunch! Because this can be an overwhelming task, I find it works best to eliminate things one by one, once a week. Today’s topic? Chapstick!

Because the seasons are changing and our lips are becoming dryer than ever, it’s easy to want to reach out for your favorite chapstick and slather your lips in some moisturizing ingredients. However, did you know that most conventional chapsticks found in drug stores or from promotional freebies are full of toxic ingredients with links to cancer, hormone disruptions, brain development, allergic reactions and more? Check out what is in this Blistex Complete Moisture chapstick!

  • Octinoxate– This is a known and studied endocrine disruptor, shown to disrupt the endocrine, hormone, and thyroid with links to breast cancer.
  • Oxybenzone– Known as Benzophenone-3, this helps other ingredients deeply penetrate into the skin with links to cancer.
  • Butylparaben– A preservative toxic to reproduction with links to hormone disruptions and cancer.
  • Ethylparaben– Another preservative with links to endocrine disruption and allergic reactions.
  • Methylparaben– Another preservative that has been found in breast tumors.
  • Propylparaben– Another preservative that shows up in breast tumors with links to possible endocrine disruption and allergic reactions.
  • Petrolatum– This is mineral oil which can cause itchiness, irritations, and allergic reactions, possibly contaminated with carcinogens depending on the source.
  • Sodium Borate– This has links to respiratory and skin irritations with possible fertility-damaging risks.

As you can see, all of the above is anything but clean or healthy for our lips. Why use a product full of so many synthetics, artificial flavors, carcinogens, and irritants when there are endless safer swaps to try instead!?

Safer Chapsticks To Try Instead-

  1. Osmia Organics Honey Myrrh Lip Repair– $22
  2. Osmia Organics Lip Doctor– $12
  3. Henne Organics Luxury Lip Balm– $22
  4. Kiss Me Honey Lip Balm Trio– $15
  5. Malaya Organics Lavender Lip Savior– $12
  6. Pogo Lip Balms– $4
  7. Laguna Herbals Lip Balm w/ SPF– $3.75
  8. 100% Pure Lip Balms– $6
  9. 100% Pure Lip Butters– $12

All of the above chapsticks, lip balms + butters are the very best I’ve found. All of them apply smoothly, last forever and are entirely free of all possible bad guys! I love that you can still get amazing products without the crazy chemicals many sneak in and sell to us, and this list is proof some good guys do still exist!

Coupon Code- Code organicbunny should work on all of the above! Some of the links here are affiliate links, however, not all are as I truly only share the ones I use and love.

It’s Friday night which means you better have a trusty jet black mascara nearby! After relentlessly trying new brands, this Lily Lolo 100% Natural Vegan Mascara is still the champion of them all. Great for both defining and lengthening, this mascara never clumps and really does give my lashes that extra volume I need! I personally apply 2-3 coats for BIG, luscious lashes that never flake, smudge or smear!
