Self-Care Gifts

We love us a good spa night at home! Cue all the bath salts, candles, and relaxing music. Self-care can be anything from such a spa night, or as simple as applying your favorite cream before bed or mask in the morning.

An Anti-Aging Wonder: Fountain of Truth Beauty

LSK-fountain-of-truth.jpg

I could not be more proud of my dear friend, Giuliana, for using her story for good in so many ways. One of which is her most recently launched skincare line called Fountain of Truth. After being diagnosed with breast cancer, G was unable to find a clean skincare line that treated the appearance of fine lines, discoloration, and other skin issues. So, she created her own! It has been extra sweet to watch how personal this process has been for her + how much care she has put into creating it.Reasons why I personally love FOT:

  • The Fountain of Truth formulas contain Super Bio-Ferment technology of clean, safe, gentle, and highly effective, fermented, skin-loving botanical ingredients.
  • The use of fermented ingredients: efficacy and potency of ingredients may be increased when they are fermented because they can be "broken down" into smaller molecules to help improved the appearance of skin's surface.
  • It uses smaller molecules, which can allow for more skin penetration, hydration, and soothing. Not to mention, fermentation can also help the nutrient density and concentration of skin-loving ingredients. All this makes for a gentle, yet effective formula to help to improve texture, tone, dryness, and the appearance of fine lines.
  • A few of the ingredients:
    • Wakame Seaweed has powerful antioxidant benefits.
    • Iron, Magnesium, Copper and Silicon get fermented and play important roles in helping skin look and feel healthy.
    • Zinc is an important antioxidant for the skin.

P.S. This is the cutest present ever for the holidays!

A Brand To Love: Primally Pure

lsk-1840of334.jpg

I recently spent the sweetest afternoon with the ladies of Primally Pure. You guys have read of my love for Primally Pure products here on the blog, as well as on Instagram via @thecleanstuff account! I have been hooked on all things PP for a while because of their completely pure ingredients. Each product label is so fun to read because each ingredient is not only clean and safe, but so good for you and as natural and pure as it can get. Yes, please!Meeting people that you have emailed with and who's products you use on a consistent basis is such a fun experience and one that I am so grateful for as a blogger. Bethany, the founder of Primally Pure, and her team are all so kind, warm, generous, fun, and inspiring to be around! It was such a pleasure and honor to be photographed as their current Primally Pure Babe (so fun) and the feature is live now on their blog. Head over there to check out the Q&A and below are the PP products that are in my daily rotation! Keep scrolling to see more photos from the day, too :) enjoy, xo.

Hey friends! Today we are talking hair care. As y’all know by now, beauty is a passion of mine (clean beauty, especially), so I really care about health-conscious hair care. A healthy physical body and wellness of course starts with diet and internal wellness, but taking care of your hair is definitely a fun aspect of wellness! I also have my own dry shampoo company, so, of course I love hair. :)Carachele from Nine Zero One Salon in LA has been the first person that I fully trust with my hair, and I didn't realize that until I started going to her! You can check out some of her amazing hair work on her Instagram. I have tried nearly every color with her, from platinum to light brown. What I love about her is that her main priority is the health of your hair, so the way she colors and cuts goes through that desire.Below are details when it comes to my hair care routine and products I love. Enjoy!
