How cute are these pumpkins?! They're such a fun (and totally simple) way to decorate for the fall. All you need is paint, glitter, lace, Mod Podge and paint brushes. I'm definitely going to try the white and glitter pumpkin this weekend!

Healthy Recipe: Chocolate Cherry Smoothie

Image
We all know that we should eat breakfast - it truly is the most important meal of the day as it fuels our body and mind for the day ahead. However so many of us skip it because we are too pressed for time in the morning. Recently I've been obsessed with drinking smoothies for breakfast as they are quick, healthy and filling, and this smoothie is the perfect way to start your day and still get to work on time. Chocolate Cherry Smoothie Serves 1 1/3 cup of oats* 1 tbsp chia seeds* 1 tsp coconut oil, preferably organic 1 tbsp cocoa powder, preferably organic 1/2 cup frozen cherries 1 ripe banana (use a frozen banana if you want a thicker, creamier smoothie) 1 cup almond milk, preferably unsweetened, or milk of your choice Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.

Natural Beauty: What's in Your Skin Care?

Image
Have you ever thought about what's in the products you use everyday? I certainly didn't, until about a year ago. If you've read any of the posts in my natural beauty series , you know that I've been trying to make my skin care routine more natural and environmentally friendly. Everything from skin care to shampoo to hand soap to dish soap to laundry detergent is made with chemicals that have been linked to both disrupting the endocrine system and causing cancer. The EU has banned or regulated over 1,300 ingredients used in personal care products. Here in North America, we are much more lenient. The FDA has banned only 11 ingredients, while Health Canada's list of banned ingredients is only slightly longer!  (Source)  As well, terms such as "green," "eco-friendly" and "pure" are often meaningless as they aren't regulated and are often only used to market products. For example, the majority of Green Works products receive a grade of F...

When Should You Stop Using a Skin Care Product?

Image
Some of us are blessed with flawless skin and some of us aren't. I unfortunately belong to the latter group. Throughout high school until my mid-twenties, my skin care routine consisted of using a benzoyl peroxide cleanser and spot treatment at night, and in the morning, Spectro Cleanser and a heavy moisturizer like Nivea Soft to combat the dryness caused by my cleansers. My skin was oily but clear apart from the occasional breakout.  If you're a reader of this blog, you know that for about the past six months, I've changed both my skin care and makeup after becoming aware of what conventional products can do to our bodies and the environment. Switching all of my products at once has not always been easy on my skin. I've tried a lot  of products recently - I've only blogged about ones that have worked for me - and it's not always easy to decide when you should stop using a new product. Many of us expect new products, whether they are anti-aging or an...
