Phoenix Botanicals Little Wing Balm $8.00
My friend Jen turned me onto this company with their Rose lip balm, but for me this is the standout balm from this company. Its pretty much one of the more amazing balms out there. When I started to my own lip balm company I really strove to beat this particular lip balm and is ability to moisturize. Continue reading

So, I wear a lot of open back shoes, clogs, sling backs etc. therefore my feet and more specifically my heels have to be in good shape. One thing though, that I am not good at doing is moisturizing my feet, like ever, its really simple and easy (an especially easy way to use up old creams that your not using anymore), no matter the simplicity I can’t bring myself to do it.

This week is dedicated to my most favorite unsung hero of the beauty world, Etsy.
Esty is a handcrafted haven for off beat things you didn’t know you needed, but for my purposes Etsy is an excellent source for hard to find, super awesome beauty products. Having spent hours combing Etsy for the best, I pulled my favorite things to show you this week.
Each Wednesday I’ll be letting you take a peek inside my bag, what products I simply can’t leave at home at least for this week…
Irie Star Blissoma Smooth A+ Moisture Serum $21.50

About a two months ago I was having a major skin freak out. Nothing made my skin normal and clear and everything made my face burn and breakout. A horrible combination, suddenly sensitive skin that is breaking out. This combo is the worst because, what you need to combat the acne is harsh so that made my face burn. I could do nothing. All I was looking for was something to calm my skin down and rein it in, you know, bring it back to a point where it was not burning. Continue reading
Intelligent Nutrients Harmonic Shampoo and Conditioner
More info HERE
Intelligent Nutrients is the brainchild of the former founder of Aveda. From the website “In 1978, Horst founded Aveda Corporation, a global plant-based cosmetic company, and ushered a new consciousness into the world of beauty. Nearly two decades later, he sold Aveda to Estee Lauder. He shifted focus to Intelligent Nutrients, a health and beauty company that lives to the highest standards of 100% food-based, safe, non-toxic and organic ingredients.” I was smitten with the idea of food based, safe, non toxic beauty products.
I could not wait for my product to arrive. When it did, let me tell you the results were amazing. My hair as I have mentioned before was just a wreck so I was looking for something anything really to get me out of a deep hair rut. This product changed my life really. I was using another shampoo and conditioner combo called Wonder Waves from Fructis but it was discontinued (and not so Green) and it was a great warm weather with humidity combo that kept my wavy, naturally limp hair basically awesome with just an air dry. Any product that allows me to do less and look awesome is something that I am always on the hunt for.
This product totally was a welcome and safe product replacement from my old discontinued standby. My hair is not frizzy, or limp even when I put conditioner up to my roots, something I have not been able to do. My hair is left shiny and bouncy and has brought back my hair. I do not know if there is a correlation but my hair is even thicker than it was too, a welcome added bonus.
If you are looking for a natural, safe everyday shampoo and conditioner that delivers some seirous results look no further, really I have found it with Intelligent Nutrients.
Vapour Organic Beauty Siren Lipstick in Ravish $22.00

In my make up arsenal of toxic lip products I have about almost a dozen of various reds. On me if there is a lip that makes me look my best, it’s a slightly more than barely there red. I have been on the epic quest for this all the time. Even when I find it, I always think I can find something better and buy another, it’s a problem. Continue reading
100% Pure Smooth and Moisture Balm, $6.00 & $15.00
More info HERE
My current hair cabinet is about 15 products deep. Mousses, sea salt sprays, dry shampoos, glossers, serums you name it, I have it. I really wanted to like this product, but I knew it would be especially hard because I have very fine hair and not a lot of it, so if a product is heavy, it will weigh my hair down and then I won’t use it. Who wants flat hair? Continue reading
