Diving in to natural beauty can be daunting. I get it – it took me years to fully make the switch to all things healthy for my body.
And you know what? That’s ok that it didn’t happen overnight. Small changes add up over time and before I knew it, I was ALL IN with the non-toxic products.
One of my favorite ways to incorporate clean beauty into my life is my making my own products. From body scrubs to lotion bars and even a conditioning hair rinse, I find myself constantly saying ‘I bet I could make that!’
You’ll find all of my DIY’s and other natural beauty related posts on this page. I’m working on lots more, so either bookmark this page to see updates or subscribe to my mailing list to get them delivered straight to your inbox.
