Cleansing, honey

Honey. Is. Awesome.

Cleansing, honey

It’s not often that I extoll the virtues of an animal product. I make vegan choices whenever I can in my products and at home.  I use candelilla wax instead of beeswax in my lip balms, and I use coconut milk instead of goats milk in soaps and moisturizers.

But honey. Oh, honey. I might need a moment.

I get asked a lot if I make a sunscreen product. I don’t. I’ll tell you why.

What’s the difference between salt and sugar scrubs?

Scrubs, Salt, Sugar, Care

I loves me some exfoliation. I have dry skin, and in California, the summer months are friggin’ arid. Lotion alone sometimes isn’t enough to get my skin as baby-soft as I like it.

Enter body scrubs.

How on earth can you wash your face with oils?

It sounds damned weird, doesn’t it? I know. Oils are what we’re trying to get the heck off our face when we wash. Hear me out.
