That St. Ives Apricot Scrub though… 🍑😂⁠
⁠
While I sometimes miss those blissfully ignorant days of over scrubbing my face with ridiculously fragrant products, I’m grateful that there are SO many clean beauty options out there now for us to experiment with. And so much more information about ingredients!! 🙌🏼⁠
⁠
Sam and I both turn to chemical exfoliation these days. Even though it “sounds” harsh, it’s actually a very gentle way to remove dead skin cells. Our two favorites are:⁠
⁠
✨ @drunkelephant glycolic night serum⁠
✨ @goodmolecules overnight exfoliating treatment⁠
⁠
Ok your turn! Spill the beans on your tween beauty mishaps 🙃⁠

As you all know, I recently swapped my more toxic nail polishes (like Essie and OPI) for healthier options like @oliveandjune and @zoyanailpolish 💖⁠
⁠
That said, I was getting ready to throw away my old stuff and I thought... "Can I really just throw this away? Can I even recycle it?"⁠
⁠
The answer: NOPE 🙅🏼⁠
⁠
Unless you're going to SUPER clean out those bottles (like no nail polish residue left), those bottles can't be recycled because of the toxicity of the product inside. 😱YIKES, right? That's the stuff that's been absorbing into our bodies!!⁠
⁠
I found out I actually have to take it to our local recycle center (SOCRRA if you live in the Detroit area) and bring it to the hazardous waste section. ⁠
⁠
So that's what I'm going to do! I'd be lying if I said I've never just thrown away bottles of nail polish in the past, but now that I have LOTS to throw away, I figured I'll do the right thing and dispose of them properly. 👍🏼⁠
⁠
Did you know this crazy fact about nail polish? What are your thoughts?! ⁠

Anyone else love a good clay mask?! 🙋🏽‍♀️⁠
⁠
They're the best for detoxing and resetting your skin for sure! That said, if you're not using the right one for your skin type, you can actually cause more stress on the skin...even if your intentions were good!⁠
⁠
Example: I used to use the Aztec Healing Bentonite Clay mask on the regular to fight acne, but my acne was actually caused my my skin barrier being too weak from using harsh/strong products. 😬Now I opt for Kaolin Clay (best for sensitive skin types) and it does wonders on my skin, without damaging it! ⁠
⁠
My favorite Kaolin Clay product is the @versed Photos, Please Brightening Tightening Fask Mask 👏🏼 It's so gentle but so effective! If you have sensitive skin, you have to try it!⁠
⁠
Which clays are your favorite?! Did you know you could actually go wrong with a clay mask? 🤔⁠

Be honest... 🙊⁠
⁠
Claudia and I usually live in the B or C zones depending on which products we're experimeting with. Currently my routine goes a little something like:⁠
⁠
AM⁠
1️⃣Cocokind Rosewater Toner⁠
2️⃣Good Molecules Niacinamide/Vit C Toner⁠
3️⃣Cocokind Vitamin C Serum⁠
4️⃣Glossier Bubblewrap⁠
5️⃣Cocokind Golden Elixir⁠
⁠
PM⁠
6️⃣Versed Cleansing Balm⁠
7️⃣Cocokind Oil to Milk Cleanser⁠
8️⃣Cocokind Raspberry Vinegar Toner⁠
9️⃣Cocokind Glow Essence⁠
1️⃣0️⃣Good Molecules Niacinamide Serum⁠
1️⃣1️⃣Cocokind Mymatcha Stick⁠
1️⃣2️⃣Cocokind Golden Elixir⁠
⁠
So currently 12 products throughout the entire day! Not too shabby, right?⁠
⁠
So how many products are in your routine?! Share!!⁠
⁠
P.S. @cocokind fans, I caved and ordered the bukachiol night mask yesterday 💸 so I'll be swapping the PM Golden Elixir for that a few nights per week now. SUPER excited to try that. Stay tuned!!⁠

My post birth control experience is up on the blog! 🎈⁠
⁠
I have to admit, it was a little weird opening up about all these things, but in the end, I’m SO glad we have an audience that appreciates truth and authenticity because this really is an important topic to talk about!⁠
⁠
What you’ll read in this post is completely transparent and unique to me and my body. Please remember that everyone reacts differently to birth control pills and making the decision to go off of them is not something you should take lightly. ALWAYS talk to your doctor first!⁠
⁠
With that being said, quitting birth control was LIFE CHANGING for me. If you want to know all about the experiences I went through while on and off the pill, check out the link in bio! 🥰⁠

A: YES you really do!⁠
⁠
No matter the weather, if the sun is up then you should be wearing SPF! But there are specific reasons to wear SPF in the winter:⁠
⁠
❄️Snow and ice can reflect up to 90% of UV rays! ⁠
⁠
❄️The ozone layer (Earth’s sunshield) is actually at its thinnest in the winter!⁠
⁠
❄️Wind, cold and dryness make your skin more susceptible to UV rays!⁠
⁠
To keep it easy, Claudia and I both like to use tinted moisturizers and base layers that have SPF in them. That way we never forget! But if you are looking for suncare specific brands, we always recommend ANY @coola products! ⁠
⁠
So…do you wear SPF everyday?! ⁠
