If you have tried to use a natural deodorant, you might be aware of the fact that a whole lot of them don’t actually work. I quickly grew tired of this, so I set out and find the best of the best… My Natural Deodorant Review is here.
Is Mosquito Repellent Safe? The answer is one we all need to understand, especially those with young children.
In 2005, Aimee Marks, founder of TOM Organic, was given a school assignment to design packaging for a product that hadn’t changed in 10 years, she chose tampons. As she was copying the list of ingredients into her prototype, she became concerned. What was viscose rayon and polypropylene? More importantly, what was it doing to our bodies? It was then she realized the necessity for organic, chemical-free feminine hygiene products that genuinely care about women’s health. It was then, that TOM Organic was born.
Switching to chemical free beauty products can be hard work. There’s an awful lot of guesswork involved whilst you try to find the best products for your skin type, trust me I know! In a bid to eliminate some of the confusion, today on the blog, I share my very own beauty routine and provide a pretty amazing offer for all An Apple a Day readers x
It’s hard to believe that one year ago today, we were celebrating our nuptials. Time has gone so incredibly fast! As promised (though incredibly late, my apologies for the delay!), some images from the day and some details as to why it was so special.
I ditched my antiperspirant deodorant awhile ago because it contained a number of chemicals linked to cancer, central nervous system and birth defects, heart and liver problems and more. I made the switch to a natural alternative but ran into a few “natural deodorant duds, today on the blog, I share my journey and my top 4 natural alternatives (that actually work!).
Lucas Paw Paw is rich in Petroleum Jelly, but that’s not all of it. There’s a little more to this story. What you need to know, plus my very own personal (petrochemical free) favourites are up on the blog.
Having modelled for many years, I am the first to admit I have worn my fair share of make-up. From your stock-standard supermarket brands to the exclusive Armani and everything in between. It’s fair to say that I have been well and truly caked in it. It was part of the gig and whilst I loved my job, I never really truly understood the impact it was having on my health… that was, until now. As the beauty review continues, today I share my personal “Powdered favourites” .
When it comes to applying liquid foundation and living an organic lifestyle, the two really don’t go hand in hand. If you’ve ever taken the opportunity to skim over the classic ingredients, you’ll know what I mean… a chemical $#@t storm to say the least. The toxic effects of these chemicals range from reproductive and endocrine disrupters to common allergens, immunotoxicity and of course, the big ‘C’, AKA cancer. As you can imagine, when I first discovered this alarming information, foundation was the first thing to be tossed out of my make-up bag and into the bin. I started trawling the internet and health food stores in search of a new product.
Now before you sigh and tell me you don’t have time to incorporate another ritual into your morning routine, let me tell you that if you make the effort, dry body brushing is well worth the investment. It’s quick, effective, inexpensive, has loads of health benefits and Miranda Kerr swears by it… What’s not to love? Here I have listed 8 fantastic reasons to give this a go, as well as all the important tips and tricks to get you started!
