In response to a request for natural (or at least more natural) hair dye alternatives, I went on a hunt. I found Ecocolors, a non-toxic hair color system. It touts itself as being the do-all solution for chemically aware or chemically sensitive people. It’s paraben, sulfite, gluten and mineral oil free. I haven’t tried it […]

So having just returned from our Thanksgiving family extravaganza, I am so thoroughly over the Holidays. They aren’t even over yet; I know don’t remind me. In a month we will have to schlep ourselves to the other Coast and do it all over again-lovely. This week will be spent detoxing on a major level. Nothing […]

It is that time of the year. You know the time of the year when wayward adult children return en mass to visit family for Thanksgiving. To sleep in their childhood bedrooms and wonder how it is they sprang forth from these people. Yesterday my husband, myself and one screaming toddler, made our yearly trek. […]

I’m just sticking my head in for a minute to give you guys an awesome homemade foot scrub. My feet are embarrassingly dry and scaly around this time of the year. So I started experimenting and came up with this fantastic scrub to slough off some dead skin. Throw some raw almonds in the food processor […]

So today on Smartplanet there is an article about LUSH rolling out a new initiative. They plan to change the formula of their soaps to eliminate the use of palm oil. The first offering is their Greenwash Soap. As if we needed another reason to love LUSH.
I can’t wait to try it. Who am I kidding, I […]

While I would never characterize myself as a girly girl, per say, I do enjoy getting prettified occasionally. The Holiday season gives me the perfect opportunity to be unabashedly feminine. Office parties just call for fancier attire and more makeup than I would usually wear. Somewhere between Vegas Showgirl and my typical bare-faced look. What […]

My best friend in Middle School was an unrepentant girly-girl. She was the only 13 year-old I knew who never left the house without a full face of makeup. I on the other hand was still carrying a hot pink lunch bag. Needless to say, we did not agree on much when it came to […]

Recently I ran into Whole Foods to pick up a few items and remembered I was out of lotion. I religiously apply body lotion after I get out of the shower. I don’t wear a lot of makeup or spend lots of time on my appearance in the morning. But I always make time for my […]

With the holiday season fast approaching my mind has turned to gift giving. Why not give something that makes the giver and the recipient happy? My husband is super low maintenance. No product, no cologne, nada. The only personal care items that I can indulge in are shaving paraphernalia. I absolutely love that my husband […]

Let me just preface this by saying that I love Target. No seriously, I LOVE Target like a 13 year old girl loves boy bands. How can you not be hopelessly devoted to a store where you can buy a t-shirt and a mop? So to be clear they didn’t have to do much more […]
