Green Beauty

In my journey towards non-toxic living there have been some difficult changes I have made. One change that I wasn’t looking forward to was getting rid of was my beloved Moroccan Hair oil. I adored everything about this oil.. The smell, the texture, the way it left my hair shiny and frizz free. Up until this year I hadn’t found a replacement for it. Finding your perfect replacement is ALWAYS the key to a successful transition into the green beauty world, you MUST find products that you LOVE to replace the conventional brands you are breaking up with. I tried many hair oils and it resulted in many ‘natural runners up’ but that wasn’t enough for me, I needed a hair oil that I would love just as much as Moroccan Oil and I have finally found it. Until I began using UMA hair treatment oil I couldn’t remember what I had been missing. As soon as I opened the bottle and took in the unbelievably amazing scent of this oil I knew I might have my new best hair friend.

Its that time of the month again where I share the contents of one of my favourite subscription boxes, the Sunday Mood Box. This months selection has been my favourite so far as I have fallen head over heels for the products that were curated so carefully. Here’s what I found in February’s collection:

  When I purchase new products I try to educate myself as much as possible in the process. One rule that I will never waiver from is that I always buy cruelty free. Cruelty free products are everywhere nowadays as the terrible violence toward animals becomes more exposed. Sometimes cruelty hides in products we least expect and goes unnoticed. Companies try their best to hide the fact that they test on animals as they’re realizing the aversion towards cruelty based brands. This is why education is the key to eliminating this problem altogether. So to save the little guys in our world, I always promote cruelty free brands on my blog and only use cruelty free brands myself. That being said, I felt I should share one of my favourite cruelty free brands MOTD Cosmetics, and their luxe yet affordable, high quality, rose gold adorned make up brushes (there’s just nothing better).

Maya Chia has quickly become a brand on the forefront of the green beauty world. After hearing amazing reviews from other green beauty bloggers, like the lovely Britanie Faith of Beauty by Britanie, and customers alike I knew I just had to try this line for myself. So when it appeared in January’s Beauty Heroes subscription box I was incredibly excited to say the least. (Beauty Heroes has quickly become one of my all time favourite subscriptions for green beauty as it consistently features the most luxe green beauty brands around.)

Time for another part to the series where I showcase some of my favourite green skin care products and show you how I use them to create at home facial treatments that stand up to the spas! (and are less toxic too). It is a lot cheaper and economical to purchase high quality skin care products to perform your own facial at home. Spa treatments usually come with a few steps that must be done in the correct order so you can receive the most benefits from each product. I have put together this mini article to show you what products I used this time to pamper myself and boost my skin. I also added links to the product websites for you to link to if you see something you like (not sponsored, just pure skin love shared for you!).

Since beginning my journey towards green living many years ago, I wanted to make sure I never compromised on quality or glam factor. This ensured there was no frustration which could cause me to throw in the white flag and give in to the toxic beauty industry. Thankfully, there are so many amazing green beauty brands dedicated to bringing high end and quality products to conscious consumers.

Hats off goes to the shops like ‘All Natural Collection’ who handpick each and every item they sell with high end green beauty in mind. This collaboration with All Natural Collection is a great way to showcase some of my top picks for green beauty and offer them at a discount for everyone to try! The holidays seemed like a great time to offer this beauty box, so you and your loved ones can benefit from safe beauty.
