Life is Short. Buy the Makeup.

 

One of the biggest misconceptions about Organic and Healthy makeup is that it has a high price tag---don't get things twisted---some brands are! I'm talking to you Tata Harper and Kjaer Weis! But there are so many Non-Toxic brands that are kind to your wallet and have amazing products. Affordable is a relative term. With the exception of a few Lily Lolo products, the brands mentioned below are $30 and under! Click the products to read full reviews! Let's get started!

Shopping for Vegan beauty products can be very easy or it can be very difficult, depending on your definition of Vegan. As Ulta is one of the most readily available cosmetic retailers, I have put together a Vegan shopping guide full of brands I would highly recommend! Let's get started!

One of my biggest goals for last year was to go completely Cruelty-Free and promote only Cruelty-Free brands. On my journey, I realized there are different ways to classify Cruelty-Free and it is not black and white. As Ulta is one of the largest cosmetic retailers....and also where I happen to work....I thought I would show you guys how shop truly Cruelty-Free at Ulta. This list will not include Vegan or Non-Toxic only brands. Those shopping guides will be coming up soon! Let's get started!

2016 was a great year for Green Beauty; new brands emerged, endless products were launched, and for me, it was a fantastic year for skincare! All of the products I mention are Cruelty-Free, Vegan, and all but one are completely free of potentially harmful ingredients! Let's get started!

I gathered up my Non-Toxic Eyeshadow singles for you guys today to let you know what are my go-to's, which ones I would pass on, and what brands I will be trying in the near future. Every product I mention here is Cruelty-Free and Vegan! Let's get into it!

June Beauty Favorites | Cruelty-Free The Summer is officially half over---July is already here!

If you're someone who prefers an easy or basic makeup routine, you're going to enjoy this! Let's get in to my June Beauty Favorites!

Honeybee Gardens Pressed Mineral Eye Shadow Honeybee Gardens Pressed Mineral Eye Shadows are a unique find in the Green Beauty Community. They are a pressed pan refill. Each pan retails for $8.99 (0.045 oz) and are available on the Ulta Website and the Honeybee Gardens Website . I have two shades already in my collection, Canterbury and Daredevil, and they have been my go-to shades for my eye-looks. I found a good deal on the singles through Ebay, so I decided to pick up the shade "Porcelain". Let's get in to the review!

One of the most common reasons I'm used to hearing about buying non-toxic cosmetics, "It's too expensive and I can't buy it anywhere." Which partially, is true.

So today, here's a list of my favorite online shops and retailers that are my go-to's for Green Beauty products. Plus some coupon codes to save you money at checkout! Let's get started!

March Beauty Favorites This past month has been dedicated to using products that will help rid my face of acne.
