I Am Honored To Be A Green Business Certification Recipient

I am beyond thrilled to share some very exciting news. I have been honored with the Green Business Certification from my beloved city of Thousand Oaks, California! #TOStrong 

This is a proud moment

I am extremely proud to be a Certified Green Business. Being honored like this truly means a lot to me. Educating, enlightening and inspiring others to treat themselves and the planet with a little more kindness by being more conscious about our environment and minimizing the body’s toxic burden with eco friendly lifestyle habits, clean eco products and love is my passion and dedication.

It is an extreme privilege to be a part of this program among sustainable businesses who are growing the green economy and using sustainable business practices. My resolute meliorism fuels my belief that the betterment of this beautiful planet can absolutely be attainable if we all do our part. 

The Earth needs to be cared for

I’m not unrealistic, I know that we have a long way to go. We’ve been treating the planet poorly for too long. Trashing it, frankly. However, even small steps help.

I’m committed to educating and enlightening people about how to take better care of the earth which will in turn, be healthier for all humans. 

It’s inspiring to see more businesses implement sustainable practices. Being the recipient of this certification is something to celebrate.

The green movement is growing, be part of it

There are many things we can do that help the environment and each of those things makes it safer for wild life, marine life, and us humans as well.

Living a more sustainable, eco conscious life does not have to be difficult or overwhelming. However, I realize that it can confusing and rather confounding to figure exactly what are the best practices to implement in our homes, businesses and lifestyles.

This is why I’m committed to helping you do it with ease. I love making the transition to non toxic, cleaner, greener living easier for people.

My online masterclass, Go Green And Create A Healthy, Eco Friendly Home Masterclass, will help you create a healthy, less toxic indoor environment inside your beautiful home and your workplace.

The Savvy Girl’s Guide To Eco Friendly Living. Implement the tips in this complimentary checklist and you’ll be a green movement rockstar.

Is Your Beauty Routine Toxic? Part II

As I mentioned in part I of  this series, up to 60% of what we put on our skin gets absorbed which leads to our bodies absorbing up to 5 pounds of chemicals through our skin every year. If something isn’t pure enough to eat we really should not put in on our body, should we?

It’s inauspicious that manufacturers of personal care products are not regulated and therefore not required to disclose ingredients, toxic or not. Fortunately, many organizations are on top of it and bringing awareness to the issue. Some of these watchdog groups may have a political agenda, but not all of them do.

Agenda or no agenda, much of the information they share is based in science and they do have an important message: do not use products containing harmful ingredients that will compromise your health and threaten the environment.

There are many brands out there claiming to be pure and while they may not contain carcinogens, they do have synthetic fragrances, irritants, endocrine disruptors and other unfavorable ingredients. So what can we do? How do we find products that won’t harm us? We have to be cautious but there are some fabulous lines on the market which I will talk about in upcoming posts and videos.

You can also check the ingredients of your products in EWG’s cosmetic data base.  It’s not a complete list of every personal care item out there but it is a helpful resource. I’ll be writing about ingredients to avoid in the near future as well so stay tuned.

Did you read the article I posted on my Facebook page the other day? They tested over 400 lipsticks for lead content, check to see if yours is on the list.

It’s not always easy to find suitable alternatives and many of the organic and truly pure, clean cosmetics are way over priced. But there are companies that offer good, safe products such as Pure Haven. I’ll write about of my finds in upcoming posts. Another one of my favorite lines is 100% Pure.

Mascara has been a tough one for me. Do I really want to spend $25 on mascara that flakes off and leaves a smattering of black dust under my eyes when I can spend $7 on Lash Exact by Covergirl that really does give my lashes great volume and length?!

What’s an eco savvy gal to do?! I’m giving Ava and Organic Wear mascara a try, I’ll let you know how they measure up. If you like an earth friendly mascara that works well and doesn’t break the bank I’d love to hear about it.

Is Your Beauty Routine Toxic? Part I

Lead in lipstick, coal tar in lotions, formaldehyde in shampoo… harmful chemicals are lurking in our everyday products and most of us don’t even know it. If you’ve been reading my blog regularly you know how passionate I am about clean, chemical free living. I make it a priority to use pure, clean products, both personal care items and the products we use in our home.

gty_cosmetics_jef_130401_wgI love playing with make up. It’s fun to get all glammed up and go out but the stuff they put in most make up is scary. The cosmetic industry is not regulated so manufacturers can include anything they want in their formulations.

Our bodies absorb up to 5 pounds of chemicals each year through our skin which is the largest organ in our body. Up to 60% of what we put on our skin gets absorbed so if something isn’t pure enough to eat we really should not put in on our body.

Because they are not regulated, manufacturers of personal care products are not required to disclose the ingredients so there may not even be a label to read and frankly, reading labels isn’t enough, you have to know what the ingredients are.

Very few people have the time or even the desire to know the scientific properties of dozens of different chemicals. That’s the hard part. But I’ll help you sort it out with a series of posts about chemicals we should avoid in our personal care products as well as our household items.

Be sure to check out part II of this series, it includes some eco friendly solutions such as Ava Anderson Non Toxic.

Use Me Organic Hair Care Review

I am a shampoo junky. I like to mix it up and have several different shampoos in the rotation. I know some say this doesn’t make your hair ‘perform’ better but I happen to think it does. Plus, I like variety.  My hair is long, thick and healthy but fine. It’s not frizzy but my ends can get frayed so it doesn’t always lay well. Thaaattt being said, I don’t always have to deal with serums and straighteners to get my hair to behave. Believe me, I am grateful. However, I do know my shampoo and conditioner because when I don’t use good products it shows and my hair drives me crazy.

I am happy to say that I found a fabulous hair care line. My hair was noticeably softer after using the Use Me cleasner and moisturizer, I love the way it feels and the best part is that it also behaved well. Some products make your hair soft but not very manageable, these don’t. They perform well, especially compared to many ‘eco-beauty’ products. They also smell gorgeous! My friend even said my hair looks super shiny. They call their shampoo & conditioners cleansers and moisturizers because they view them as skincare for your hair.

Their products are sold online and in several salons nationwide. They are very environmentally sound because you can refill them in any salon that carries them, reducing post-consumer waste. This eco-girl loves that! All of their cleansers, moisturizers, and styling aids are sulfate-free, paraben-free and vegan. They are packaged in recyclable BPA-free bottles—how many companies do that? Hardly any! You know how important it is to me to use personal care products that are free from harmful ingredients and the BPA-free bottles ~ huge bonus.

All the botanicals in their products are organic and the fragrance is completely from essential oils (lavender, rosemary, aloe, green tea, matricaria, shea butter, sunflower seed oil, etc).
Use Me is a member of 1% For the Planet, a global movement of companies that donates 1% of sales to environmental organizations. And they are made in the USA!
