All N A T U R A L organic skin care

While I love my DHC products and I’m a little sad to part with them (for now) I want to give this product line a go. I’ve heard wonderful things about this line and it is organic, all natural, and made up of ingredients I can actually identify. 
I love love LOVE this product and I have never been so excited to wash my face. I have exceptionally dry skin (read: stingy skin that holds onto everything) so this has a way with my pores. The essential oils are combined in such a way that my skin can relax and let go of its dirty baggage but at the same time the oils are able to keep my skin clean. 
See for yourself what essential oils are present:
Here is a breakdown of the Key Ingredients:

Cucumber Juice: cucumber juice opens pores, which is essential for cleanliness; it also clears your complexion by cleaning the skin
Corn Germ Oil: this vegetable oil helps neutralize free radicals and reduce redness of the skin; it is also high in vitamin E and Zinc.
Willow Bark Extract: this is nature’s Salicylic Acid, used traditionally for its astringency and anti-inflammatory characteristics
Yogurt: yogurt is chock full of enzymes and contains natural oils and fats, and zinc to nourish the skin; this can all help diminish pore size and improve the overall texture of the skin (and also help remove acne scars!)
Shea Butter: shea butter is a solid fatty oil made from nuts; it helps promote cell regeneration and circulation
Calendula Oil: this oil has antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties proving to be a wonderful aid in healing
Tea Tree Oil: tea tree oil has antibacterial, anti-fungal, and antiviral properties … an overall antiseptic
Vitamin B5: B5 is a common approach to fighting acne as it is known to lower oil production gently, without overdrying the skin (some also take B5 orally to help fight acne from the inside out, if that’s what you’re aiming for … )
Vitamins C, E, and A: these vitamins, together, help reduce damage caused by free radicals; together these ingredients help promote natural cell turnover without harming you or your skin (Vitamin A is often mimicked by prescription strength medication: think Retin-A and Accutane … YUCK)
Coenzyme Q10: this is an incredible anti-aging agent as it helps neutralize free radicals, essentially preventing the damage done by the sun, aging, pollution, and acne
Alpha Lipoic Acid: ALA is a “universal” antioxidant, helping dissolve toxic substances; it helps preserve the healthy parts of the skin while also cleaning up damaged tissue (i.e. acne scars); many people take ALA orally to help break up deep, cystic acne (though they also warn that it dries out the skin when taken orally)

Check for it online or at Whole Foods !

vegan sweetener guide

hey 👋

I'm Kiki. I am a pretty basic plant-based chick that does yoga and all the things. I try to have as little impact on this planet as I can and I share all the ways I do it here with plant-based vegan food, eco-friendly sustainable living, home gardening, and homemade all natural everything.

I truly believe that if we all do all of the 'little things' then it will add up to make a big difference. I'm so glad that you're here to join me in doing lots of little things.

Let's dig deeper ↠

  • The ads you see generate revenue for me. This is not my livelihood but I do get some change from the ads.
  • If you make a purchase through the Amazon recommendations I make a small percentage from the purchase at no cost to you.
  • Sometimes I receive free samples from companies in order to review for you. I never recommend something that I would not use, myself. I am very protective of my brand and image and feel very strongly about only recommending items I believe in!

We roasted the mini carrots and used the tops to make pesto 🤤⁠

Millions of people from all around India (and the world!) visit the Ganges River, a sacred river that flows from Shiva's head and out to the Himalayas.⁠

It is believed that bathing in her water is the way to salvation, a way to clear karma, sins, and attachment to this world.⁠
⁠
Every day, millions of people pray to the river, sending their blessings through the water to be sent through the country, one winding mountainside at a time. To bathe in it is to bathe in prayer.⁠

May you find salvation wherever you are 🥰🙏

I mostly just don't like being online cuz it's what I do for work, so when my workday is done, I set my phone down and forget about it until the next morning. ⁠

And I'm definitely not trying to slow down the food-to-mouth process by taking pictures. But if I don't post and comment 24/7, then will Instagram even see it? Will anyone notice? What if I want to build a following, then what? I'm a slave to engagement for the rest of my life until I die? 🤯⁠

Social media is a fun way to connect with people from all over the world but gets in the way of connecting with the world right around me.⁠
