Well, Hello There

Everything Must go! Or not... Upon making the decision to go cruelty-free things can feel a little overwhelming. As people, we have a tendency to hoard beauty, skin care products, and makeup. Much of which, unfortunately, isn't cruelty-free. So what's one to do when beginning this transition? Trash everything and start fresh? If you're able to great. However,  this would probably cause many of our bank accounts to scream and spiral into oblivion. To prevent this tragic scene, I recommend allowing products to complete their natural lifespan. Use something until it's gone, then find a new, cruelty-free replacement. https://bit.ly/2tMFIxU Sticker-Shock When I first told people I was deciding to go cruelty-free many of them had the same response, "that's so expensive though."

After browsing the online shop I ended up with 1 Crystal Youth Gem Infused Face Lotion, 1 Crystal Power Hydro Mist, 1 Gem Serum Radiant Drops and 1 Gem Water Crystal Infused Micellar Cleansing Tonic in my cart. I'll admit I dropped a little more dough on this purchase than I normally would in one sitting, but I had just gotten my tax return and was feelin' the need to treat myself. So what's the verdict? Overall, I'm satisfied with my purchases. Sadly I wasn...

The glee of receiving a monthly surprise from Goddess Provisions has given me a reason to happily countdown the days until the next box awaits me on my doorstep. This month's box focused on Ayurvedic Wellness, an ancient Indian practice that focuses on yoga and using the elements of nature to bring balance and harmony into your life. Curious about what's inside? Take a peak below... Copper Cup- Turmeric Latte Mix: Ya'll know I love me a good latte here and there. The golden hue of this powdery substance had me intrigued from the get-go and I was excited to test it out. Prior to stirring-up this concoction I'd never had Turmeric anything so I wasn't sure what to expect. However, after reading the directions and noting the recommendation of adding honey, cinnamon and your favorite milk I figured it had to be good, and boy was it! I added a dab of honey, a sprinkle of cinnamon and a dash of almond milk. The latte was the perfect mix of sweet and spicy and a great wa...
