Full time siblings... part time models |
What has gotten me through the past couple weeks of meh is continuing my hunt of "non-dirty" beauty and skin products. I already have some favorites. I also have some on a "Come to Katy" list that I plan to treat myself to once I pay off my rockin' rehearsal dinner dress I bought for last month from Nordies. For the next few posts, I will share one thing I love and one thing on my wish list.
Thing I Love
May Lindstrom The Clean Dirt cleansing clay & The Problem Solver mask - Can I just say that May Lindstrom is fantastic? You know that type of person that makes you feel like the only and most important person in the room when they are talking to you? May accomplishes this via her online presence with her customers. Her Youth Dew serum, while amazing, seems to just not agree with my skin. I have read countless reviews from people that dub it a miracle product, but for some reason my weird post Accutane skin doesn't like it. I e-mailed May my problem and some questions and she responded to me within 24 hours with suggestions on how to better introduce her line to my skin. I absolutely love her cleanser, which I use about three times a week, and her mask, which I use weekly. There is something so comforting in her concoctions of basic, pure, and effective ingredients that are made by hand. Each time I use them, I feel like I have been invited into May's very special circle of friends with whom she chose to share her talent.
Come to Katy
Jiva-Apoha Body Oil - I read about these body oils on Seed to Serum, a clean skincare blog that is a new obsession of mine. I have been looking for a clean alternative to the various dirty body lotions I have been trying to use up. After reading the various descriptions of the oils, scents, and the feelings they intend to accentuate, it is readily apparent that most seem to be right in my wheelhouse. Not only do the Jiva-Apoha oils moisturize with high quality oils from the best ingredients, but the creator is trained in Ayurveda and holistic healing methods. Therefore, each oil has different therapeutic benefits it can bring to its user. The most exciting option? Getting a personalized oil speciality made based upon how one responds to a questionnaire.
If summer were a weekend, we are now well into Saturday afternoon... what are you doing to make the most of it? My to-do list consists of going to a Lake Erie beach, catching a show at Playhouse Square (Book of Mormon, here I come), going to a weekend Tribe game and getting Stoddard's custard.
