5 Sustainable Ways to Clean Your Body
Taking care of yourself should never be at the expense of others or the environment. That really is the heart of what sustainable self-care means. Since our skin absorbs up to 64% of what you put on it, it also means being very intentional about what you put on your body — from cruelty free to non-toxic ingredients. All said, it’s clearly the time to clean up your self-care regimen.
Here are 5 ways you can be more sustainable with your clean routine.
- Use products made with natural or organic, plant-derived ingredients. You’ll be giving yourself self-care that not only feels good, performs well, you’re using ingredients that align with nature and are actually good for your body and don’t poison the planet. Instead of chemicals, you’re infusing vitamins, minerals, plant extracts and skin-loving ingredients into your body that has a feel-good effect that extends to your spirit as well.
- Use products that are cruelty free. Sustainability means taking care of our planet, and all the living things on it. There is no place for animal testing in a soulful, sustainable world.
- Just say no to chemical, unnatural ingredients. Using body washes and soaps that are non-toxic with no harmful chemicals is key — not only because we absorb 64% of what goes on our body and could eventually make us sick, but the chemical waste can destroy our planet.
- Opt for a shower to save water. According to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), a full bathtub requires about 70 gallons of water, while taking a five-minute shower uses 10 to 25 gallons.
- Find eco-friendly packaging and re-use containers. Currently only an estimate of 14% of plastic gets recycled. Re-use is the best way to live a sustainable lifestyle.
See our blog here for ideas on reusing plastic containers, 5 hacks for to be more eco-friendly, and our guide to a plant-based diet.
Is Mask Mouth a Thing?
We’ve all heard of maskne (aka, acne caused by wearing a mask) and unfortunately, that’s definitely a thing. But mask mouth? Yep. Also a thing. When you’re wearing a mask for any length of time, you’re breathing your own breath, the moisture in your breath gets damp which goes into the fabric of your mask, which in turn is a breeding ground for bacteria such as candida — you may get a rash and your lips may get extremely dry. Hello, mask mouth.
The antidote for dry-lip mask mouth is creating a barrier of moisture on our lips with a nourishing Lip Balm to prevent the constant dryness. Forget lipstick and lip gloss unless you want it sticking to your mask — and the rest of your face. Raw Sugar Natural Lip Balm is the perfect layer of protection, because not only does it moisturize lips with a blend that is made with Cold Pressed ingredients, it has Vitamin E, safflower and jojoba oils to lock in moisture, creating the protection you need while nourishing them at the same time. The added bonus of using Natural Lip Balm in delicious flavors is that the extracts act as a mini aromatherapy session so your brain signals a happy, calm sense of well being. And yet another bonus? Every Lip Balm comes with a tub of exfoliating Lip Scrub.
Lip Scrub is key to exfoliation of sensitive skin on and around your lips, treating dry, chapped lips and adding softness. It will help keep lips primed and pretty and infuses them with a protective veil of moisture to prevent mask irritation. So exfoliate with Lip Scrub. Apply Lip Balm with wild, reckless abandon or at least once an hour. Let’s make mask mouth a thing of the past. Shop below!

Sharing Raw Stories is a way for us to connect, acknowledge the beauty, strength and perseverance involved in every journey. We hope these stories enlighten, inspire and encourage you as you walk your own path and help you to know that you are never alone. What is your Raw Story?
It’s one of many beautiful days today and I find myself reflecting on life and really acknowledging the journey and along with it, the maturation of the woman who stands before me in the mirror. It has been 20 years that I have lived with Vitiligo and with it, has bestowed immense growth. I can’t say those years came and went with the breeze. In fact, the majority were quite trying and haven’t completely come to a halt and so I’ve certainly had my share of insecurities. I’ve had people stare, which continues to this day. I’ve had people not want to shake my hand. I’ve even had people laugh. Those situations were at the time, crushing and disheartening; but I am stronger now because of them and in the best way possible. The experience of living with Vitiligo has definitely been humbling and honestly, I wouldn’t trade it for the world. I’ve come to learn that it’s okay for people to stare. Some people are not educated on mental health or certain conditions that exist in the world. So, I believe it’s my…or more so, it’s our job to walk in faith and with confidence and to bring enlightenment to those around us and also on a grander scale. It’s okay to ask questions and discuss issues. That won’t always be easy either, but it’s a way of growth with a bridge to compassion and empathy. I’ve come to learn to love myself and accept my beautiful imperfections. They are me and we are all perfect. Today, I can stare back at the woman in the mirror with bright eyes and an open heart. I am a Mom and a wife. I’m a friend and I’m a daughter. I am me and I need to be a light and an honorable example for my children and whomever or wherever else I can shine my light on. Let us be brave and let us be raw.
October Horoscopes
Once in a Blue Moon is here.
You know the phrase “once in a blue moon”? Well, welcome to October, a month bookended by two super-powered full moons on the 1st and 31st. A Halloween Blue Moon only seems appropriate for 2020 and adds to the supercharged intensity of the month ahead. There is a lot of lunar action going down that brings plot twists and curve balls and to add fuel to the fire, Mercury goes into retrograde on October 13th. So, even though the Sun is moving through Libra’s sign of balance, this might be a good month to pump the brakes and spend some time in quiet meditation and stillness. It’s going to be a wild ride. But what else would we expect from 2020?

Raw Stories – chickvscancer
Sharing Raw Stories is a way for us to connect, acknowledge the beauty, strength and perseverance involved in every journey. We hope these stories enlighten, inspire and encourage you as you walk your own path and help you to know that you are never alone. What is your Raw Story?
I am Cat and I am a breast cancer survivor. I was diagnosed in 2018 with Stage 2B Invasive Ductal Carcinoma and In Situ breast cancer. My journey to get to where I am now has been one of self-discovery, immense fear but also great love. Facing my own mortality, and what cancer does to a body, I’ve broken down more times than I’ve held my head high. But when I do find that space, that feeling like I’m comfortable with this new me, I’ve been able to heal. After three surgeries, 4 rounds of chemo and incredible bodily loss, I’ve done things I thought I would never do. I’ve shown other women how to embrace their post cancer bodies; I’ve survived through moments I did not know were survivable. I’ve conquered unimaginable grief to get to where I am today. Although breast cancer was and is one of the most insurmountable obstacles I’ve faced yet in my life, I know that if I put my scars out there, my real, raw story, I’m helping another woman face those obstacles. We are never alone in our fight against what may take us.
