When I started my cruelty free journey, one of the things I really struggled with was deodorant. I used Nivea roll on deodorant for a long time, and really liked the way it performed but hated the fact that Nivea is not cruelty free so I began my search for a suitable replacement. I’ve tried powders, sprays, pastes and roll ons; the good, the bad and the ugly. I’ve finally found two deodorants that I really like, so I thought a post about cruelty free deodorant might be helpful. View Post
I’ve heard people talking about iHerb.com for a long time, and I have read about the great things they had to offer on a lot of my favourite beauty blogs (I’m looking at you Cassandra Myee, Lena Talks Beauty and Nana Wintour…) so I finally gave in and placed my first iHerb order. That leads me to this (cue drumroll): my first ever iHerb haul.
Last year I made the decision to go cruelty free and stop using beauty products that are tested on animals. Before I made that leap, I thought that going cruelty free meant spending lots of money on obscure hard to find products. Boy, was I wrong! It’s become easier and easier to find great products that don’t come at the expense of our animal friends. Seeing as it’s #BeCrueltyFree week this week, I think there are a few things you need to know about cruelty free beauty.
I have relatively good skin, but occasionally I get breakouts. I get hormonal breakouts, I get pimples when I take certain medications or am stressed, and I sometimes get them as a reaction to a makeup or skincare product I’ve used. Over the last two months, I’ve had breakouts as a result of ALL of these reasons – not cool! View Post
