Activated Charcoal Mask

Let’s get spooky! This activated charcoal mask is all natural and has no frightening ingredients, but you might just scare the pants off someone while you are wearing it. [Sorry in advance!!] This is one of my favourite face masks… just in time for Halloween. If I can’t think of a costume to wear, I…

Natural Cuticle Cream

My nails and cuticles could really use some TLC after all of this indoor and outdoor spring cleaning and gardening! Cuticles are just as important in nail care as your nails!

How to Clean and Remove Labels from Jars

Why buy empty jars from the store when you can reuse the ones you currently have?! We often have jars leftover from all kinds of foods (pickles, jam, salsa, hot peppers, and more). Instead of placing these in the recycling bin, give them new life and reuse them in your home! Maybe I hoard empty…

It was quite the childhood! (Click here…

My Natural Oral Health Routine

Never have I ever… gone bungee jumping. I have gone zip-lining (which was amazing!), but bungee jumping…no… coming from the girl who can barely convince herself to jump into a pool from a diving board. Never have I ever… watched a scary movie without screaming. Scary movies = love. Probably could watch the same scary…

Whiten Teeth with Activated Charcoal

As a child, I wouldn’t dare… however, as an adult I am asking Santa to bring me some coal (activated charcoal that is). Hopefully Santa has access to my Amazon wishlist (crossing fingers!)
