My Favorite Things

My journey to eating more whole foods and slowly reducing my chemical exposure from body care and cleaning products has introduced me to some special brands I’d like to share with you.

Scout & Cellar Wine

Trying your best to move towards Clean.Simple.Living in all that you do? Me too! Oh, but it’s not a perfect path!

When I realized that the massed produced wine industry had just as many additives, chemicals, sugars, etc as the convenience food industry, I was crushed!

I love a nice, full-bodied glass of red while sitting around the fire in fall as well as a crisp white on the patio in the summer months, but I didn’t want all the junk that came with them (including their nasty side effects.)

Enter Scout & Cellar Clean-Crafted™ wines.

Wines that are lab tested to ensure none of the over 250 common questionable additives are in our wine:

No synthetic chemicals or pesticides
No added sugars
No added colorings or flavorings

Wine the way it was meant to be!

CHEERS!

BeautyCounter

Hormone disruptors, cancer-causing chemicals? YIKES…I don’t want those ingredients in my skincare and beauty care…do you?

I don’t want to put that stuff on my kid’s bodies either.

Enter Beautycounter – a make-up and skincare brand that is part of a global movement to change the beauty industry.

They take safety seriously. “There are over 1,800 ingredients never used in our formulations—we call this The Never List™—and we go above and beyond to test every component against our high standards in pursuit of clean beauty.”
