Alternative Natural Beauty Options
I have had acne since I was probably about 13. I've always loved the idea of living off the land, or living wholly. Recently, I've been trying to incorporate that into my beauty routine by cutting out the harsh chemicals. Seems to do the same as salicylic acid and creams with 40 different chemicals so if you wish to join me on my quest come with me and read my tips.

Microblading Your Brows The microblading process gives you great-looking eyebrows that are indistinguishable from naturally grown eyebrows. The process takes about two hours.

13 Indie Brands That Remind Me of Goth Culture and/or Halloween
Disclaimer: Skip ahead if you don’t care for a long introduction. Okay, I do not prescribe to goth culture, therefore I am quite ignorant on that score. Therefore, take everything I say with a grain of salt. I, however, do adore goth aesthetic, and I found these brands to be gothic in nature to my ignorant eyes. While they all also remind me of Halloween (not to be stereotypical), some remind me of All Hallow’s Eve a bit more than goth. Now I know it’s quite a bit early, seeing that it is not even September yet. But the inspiration hit (looking at my local stores that were already advertising costumes) and I wanted to hit the idea when it was still hot. Hence, here we are.

Tame the Mane
What’s your concept of beauty? In this all natural, whole grain, non-GMO, gluten-free society, the natural hair journey has continued to evolve. But are we losing sight of what it means to be beautiful? Do we have to compromise health for beauty? I know I did! I thought if I could just grow my hair long enough I would be considered beautiful, desirable even. But is that necessarily the goal? Why is it so critical to have long hair?

I am a bargain shopper. I am always looking for the lowest price I can get on items I am planning to purchase. When I discovered BuyInCoins I was amazed at how inexpensive their items were.

Why I Shave My...
Face. There, I said it. I shave my face. I know a lot of you are worrying, won’t the hair grow back thicker? Won’t it grow back darker? What if I get a rash? I know. There are so many questions and several things to consider with shaving your face. It isn’t really considered "the norm" for a female to shave their face, is it? You must think… well, there must be reasons for that. But no, there isn’t really.
