“To those who have a challenging, traumatic or non-existent relationship with your Fathers, i see you.” – Sheleana Aiyana (author)
@sheleanaaiyana

I didn’t end up having the Father i deserved.
He did my family wrong, and for years his wrongdoings shattered beautiful memories and seemed to shape our lives. But his choices weren’t the end of my story. And yes – some things are unforgivable, but instead of drowning in the struggle I decided to let go. And move on.

We don’t have to repeat the past. We get to choose better, for us and those who come after us. We get to break the cycle, one day and one choice at a time. And that’s an incredibly tough task, but also, what a privilege!

Feeling grateful to all of you Fathers – and future Fathers – who are doing it right: with kindness and love 💖

🙏Mental health first. Without it, you’ll struggle BIG time getting healthier physically - whatever that looks like for you.

Too many of us are tired all the time, running through our “what’s next” list and feeling fkn guilty for not putting in the time to “workout” 😞

ENOUGH.
First things first:
b r e a t h e . . .
*allow* yourself time for YOU.

Look around at everyone yawning through their day.
I see you, I get it.
But sometimes you gotta say ENOUGH - and STOP.

Eventually it all gets done.
Work on grounding yourself first.
As someone who went through caregiver burnout, trust me on this 🥹

❓Does this resonate with you?
Hope it helps even 1 person.

Dental tabs test drive! 🪥

I’m VERY picky about teeth care, but had to try because ughhh… the plastic tsunami!! 😫

(Not sponsored) but I chose @tanit.botanics tabs because they’re made in Canada 🇨🇦
- Plus they use xylitol! (The BEST for teeth! I actually rinse with xylitol after EVERY meal 😁)
- And hydroxyapatite (remineralizes teeth)
- And ‘cause my friend Carrie recommended them 🫶🏻

As an environmentalist - and because I’ve worked so hard to make eco products too - we all need to take steps to reduce our plastic use. So I’m IN for making this switch! 🌱

❓thoughts? Will you try dental tabs?

PS: Search for the Green Beauty Conversations podcast and listen in! I *guarantee* you’ll be inspired & learn something too 💖

It’s not a test, so don’t feel judged pls! 🥰

I’m aware that there are variables, like hair length, shampoo type & efficiency, how greasy hair is, etc.

Why do I need to know?
Kind of a secret-ish 🤐 but I’m working on adjusting the Powder-to-Foam shampoo packaging to fit X number of washes. A complicated feat, but it helps to get opinions 🙏

So pls answer as honestly as you can! And don’t overthink it 😁💖

How much shampoo do you use per wash? 👇👇👇

❌Not all “natural” shampoo bars are created equal - some are far from planet-friendly! ☹️

👉Have you spotted these commonly-used ingredients?

🚫 Behentrimonium Methosulfate:
Used for conditioning, this ingredient is definitely NOT eco-friendly. It’s not biodegradable, it’s toxic to aquatic organisms, and petroleum-derived. Not EcoCert-approved and not what we want in waterways!

🚫 Guar Hydroxypropyltrimonium Chloride:
A modified version of natural guar, it may help soften and smooth the hair, but its synthetic chemical structure makes it non-biodegradable and eco-toxic

🚫 Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate:
Hugely used as its inexpensive and easy to find, it’s commonly promoted as “mild and coconut-derived” - but it’s an *ethoxylated surfactant, meaning it’s processed using ethylene oxide, which can leave behind trace amounts of 1,4-dioxane (a potential carcinogen)

✅ A better alternative: Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate (SCG) — gentle, effective, and readily biodegradable.

🚫 Sodium Coco Sulfate:
Coconut-based but it’s environmentally persistent and moderately toxic to aquatic life. “Coco” doesn’t always mean clean.

💡 What’s ethoxylation?
It’s a chemical process using petroleum-derived ethylene oxide. It boosts performance but leaves behind toxic byproducts and hurts biodegradability. Not exactly the “natural” image these bars are selling.

✨ True eco-formulation means choosing ingredients that are safe for your body AND the environment - no shortcuts 🙅‍♀️

BONUS: If you spot “potassium cocoate” or “sodium cocoate” in your bar’s ingredients, chances are it’s really a bar of soap and definitely not the best thing for your scalp,

❓Do you think that there is greenwashing happening with shampoo bars?

Is dirt really “dirty” though? 🤔

(Heck - there’s too much freaking out about “removing dirt, sweat & oil” 🙄)

So here’s the good news;
The Old Friends Hypothesis suggests our immune system needs regular exposure to the microbes we evolved with - like those found in soil 🌱

AND - there is an overlap between soil and human microbiota - species like Mycobacterium, Bacillus, and Pseudomonas, support immune regulation, reduce inflammation, and help balance, the skin and gut… so when you’re gardening or playing in the dirt, skipping the shampoo, might actually nourish your body in more ways than one! 🌟

Dig in - literally! And if you get some soil on your hair or scalp, a quick water rinse is perfect! 🚿

❓Do you feel “dirty” after gardening? Have you ever tried a mud or clay bath?

My brain is always thinking ahead.
What’s next?
What should I do now?
Let’s check the phone. Then find something to clean. It’s *always something!*
It’s a loud brain 🥹

Practicing BEING has helped me turn the volume down in my head, and love ‘this very moment’ - it turns life down a notch… it’s wonderful!

No tea, no phone, no tv, not even meditation.
Just me.

👍Yep! It’s true!

Out of the good stuff and got frizzies? 👉HAND CREAM ✅

Just a touch, just slightly glide it on top = by golly Batman, frizz be gone! ✨💫
(Plus alcohol-free and waaay more eco than hairspray!)

I don’t recommend using it all the time because hand creams WILL build up and make your hair crunchy. This is what leave-in conditioners are for 👉 use them instead because they’re meant to *condition* hair, protect from heat, help style and tame… but “in a pinch” a body cream or lotion will do, for use on top and ends, for frizz 😉

Have you tried it? Will you?
What say you? Let’s chat! 💖

Is your hair truly dry… or is it just brushed? 🤔

Many hair types - from slightly wavy to curly and coily - can lose their definition when they are brushed, giving the temporary appearance that they’re dry. Don’t be discouraged!

When you brush dry hair that has any slight wave pattern, you are mechanically separating the strands. This can also lift the cuticle (the outermost layer of the hair shaft). Once the cuticle is raised, moisture can escape more easily, and humidity can sneak in causing the hair to swell and appear frizzy or poofy 🤯

This is even more noticeable when:
➰ the hair isn’t well hydrated
➰ there is no leave in conditioner to help smooth and seal the hair
➰ brushing is done on dry hair instead of damp or conditioned hair

Also, more textured hair naturally has more bends and twists so when you pull a brush through it, you’re stretching those curves without defining them, which leads to that expanded cottony look 😒

I have seen this on thousands of people and it really is a quick fix!

✅ Apply a leave in conditioner to your hair when it is damp or wet
✅Then, comb it
✅Let it dry

Day 2:
✅ Re-dampen it using your hands, and scrunch lightly.
✅ apply a touch more leave-in, if necessary (because it does wear off)

❓Does your hair get poofy? Frizzy? Dry-looking? Comment if you find this helpful!

Hello 👋 im Suzanne and I pick up garbage during my walks.
It’s easy!

Others dump it, I pick it up.
It keeps me fit!
All that bending down and stretching, love it! 🤣

And then I get to sort it out:
Single-use plastics here,
cardboard there,
tins, planting pots, Oohh such fun!!

You want to do it too, right?
I know you do! 😏

Why?
👉Because all those other photos tell the tale: garbage does NOT belong with NATURE🌷

Please clean up after yourself - or after others.
Either way, thank you 🙏

⚡️Bzzinga! Who’s got static?! 🙋‍♀️
= everyone does 😒

Remember going to the Science Centre and having your hair stand on end at the “static electricity (Van de Graaf) exhibit”? 😆🤯

The best protection:
✅Conditioners (but they wash out, leaving minimal amounts of positive charge on the hair)
✅Leave-in conditioners! Yay!

ESPECIALLY with fine hair!
That’s why i aimed to create a multitasking, multi-hair-type one: Hydrate & Shine 🤩✨

It’s a game-changer!
⭐️ No more static or frizzies
⭐️ Shiny hair WOOHOO!
⭐️ Super soft, protected hair
⭐️ that smells amazing!
⭐️ and is biodegradable!! 🌱

❓What’s been your biggest fine hair challenge? Comment below 👇

🙋‍♀️Anyone else get Nape Knots?
Well, they ARE preventible!

Nape Knots (those pain-in-the-butt knots in the back of your neck!) can mess up your hair - and even hurt! 🥺

Did you know we are more prone to getting them in colder months? 😳

As our hair rubs with clothing, back and forth, and especially with fine hair that is unprotected, those hairs hang onto each other like saying “hang on everyone, hold on tight!”

The trick is to prevent them is:

1️⃣ Use a leave in conditioner every day. Even with fine, thin hair. Just use a little bit, and more in the nape area (our Hydrate & Shine leave-in is NON-GREASY, and good for all hair types! ⭐️)

2️⃣ tie up your hair to sleep at night - always be sure it’s totally dry to avoid fungus from growing on your scalp 🦠🤢

3️⃣ if your hair is long, tie it up loosely in the back of your head when wearing winter coats and big sweaters to prevent rubbing and knotting!

4️⃣ on day 2 after a wash (and on subsequent days) don’t be afraid to use leave in conditioner again!

Leave-ins aren’t just for thick hair.
they are miracle workers, and game changers! I would never go without mine 🥰 and let’s face it: long hair = work!

❓ do you know someone who always has Nape Knots?

✅YES you can use leave-in conditioner with fine hair!

Not all are heavy and oily!

When i created the Hydrate & Shine leave-in, I wanted it to be for ALL hair types - regardless of how little or how much hair you have 🤩

It’s all about how much you put on:
👉Lots of hair? Put it on when your hair is wet.
👉Fine, thin amounts? Put it on when it’s dry.

Static, frizz & flyaways ARE avoidable! (Plus, your hair will smell amazing! 😍)

❓Do you have fine hair and are afraid of oiliness?

✅YES you can use leave-in conditioner with fine hair!

Not all are heavy and oily!

When i created the Hydrate & Shine leave-in, I wanted it to be for ALL hair types - regardless of how little or how much hair you have 🤩

It’s all about how much you put on:
👉Lots of hair? Put it on when your hair is wet.
👉Fine, thin amounts? Put it on when it’s dry.

Static, frizz & flyaways ARE avoidable! (Plus, your hair will smell amazing! 😍)

❓Do you have fine hair and are afraid of oiliness?

🤓Quick hair drying factoid

Although most hairdryers can go up to 140°F (60C), your hair won’t begin breaking until 450°F 🥵

BUT - overheating your hair for extended periods of time WILL break hair bonds - and they are not fixable! You would have to wait till your hair grows out or ✂️ cut it 😞

Best advice:
- SHORT heat bursts are fine
- MUST always protect hair first! (Our Hydrate & Shine leave-in is good for ALL hair types! Game changer!🤩)
- WRAP your hair with a cotton t-shirt to suck in most of the water first, then dry it (if you must 😏)
- If your hair’s been bleached or over-treated, skip the hairdryer altogether! ❌
- AVOID the roots! Or use a diffuser:

👉A diffuser is a game-changer! Even if you have straight or short hair, it helps distribute heat more evenly, prevents frizz, and gives you that polished look without the damage. 💫 A diffuser keeps the heat away from your roots as much as possible!

I hardly ever use a hairdryer because they use way too much energy, but when I do, I plop first then cool dry 💖

❓What do you use to protect your hair before drying it? Have you tried using a diffuser?

YES✅ Melatonin can help hair grow!

I recently went through a BIG stressful family event and couldn’t sleep well 😕 my hair took a beating! (Hair thinning is common through stressful events, as your body focuses on other things rather than growing & keeping hair)

Melatonin is saving me!
Along with other supplements too, like B complex, iron, etc. and fixing stress. So I had to share!

YES✅ melatonin is a hormone!
Whaaat?! 😳

There are many hormones that affect hair growth, and hair thinning - estrogens, androgens, thyroid hormones, prolactin - and wonderful melatonin! 🤗

👉 New blog post on this!
check it (out on our website) to learn how melatonin is much more than a sleep aid to rebalance this hormone - it can help your hair, skin (acne!), nails, stress & anxiety, organ function and so much more!

❓ have you ever taken melatonin?
check out the blog to see which one I take!

Face-to-face is where it’s at! 🥳

In a world where everything is online, it’s so important to get out there - in person 🥰

In one day, I visited @botanicplanetc @chitchatscanada @newdirectionsaromatics and LLB, to pick up some supplies.
Sure, I could’ve paid for delivery, but this way;

✅ I saved on four delivery charges
✅ I saved a little on gas emissions
✅ I saved a lot on extra packaging of my ingredients
✅ I met some wonderful people
✅ I got out of the office/lab, which is amazing for mental health!

Meeting people in person must be one of the biggest bonuses, because this is how we collaborate to help each other out on a local level

❓ what are some of the ways you support local industry? Do you think you could be getting out there a little more than you do?

HAT head after all that work??😭

This is why it happens 👇
🎩 Hat pressure compresses the hair follicles, flattening them against the scalp 😠 then, when your hot head further warms the hair and makes it more malleable, it “molds” it to the shape of the hat.
Gross 😒

✨You must FLOOF your hair up to prevent hat head! Floof I say!

✨PLUS: Use a tiny bit of leave-in conditioner to prevent frizz!
(Literally a pea size of our Hydrate & Shine! AMAZING and better than hairspray 😃👍)

❓Which one of these ideas will you try? 👇
✨SAVE this reel!

🥹What if..?

Could you allow yourself to restructure your weekends, so that “chores” are spread out through the week?

You know, like:
🧹Vacuum on Mondays
🧹Laundry Tuesdays (overnight)
🧹Plant-watering Wednesdays… etc.

Could you delegate chores to others? (Even if they don’t do them perfectly? 😬)

What does your weekend look like then? How would you feel with a plan-free weekend? 🥰

I need this. WE need this!
👉time to visit family, go for a long walk, or heck, do nothing but read a good book! 📚

❓ What about you? Do you feel rested & recharged at the end of the weekend?

❓Do you think you could prioritize YOU a bit more? Comment for me, let’s chat!

So what if I love wearing makeup and fixin’ up my hair? 🧐

Lately my life has been a LOT 🤯 and I have had some friends - who know the turmoil - suggest that I should love myself as I am without feeling like “I need make up”.

Here’s the thing: I LOVE wearing it! Yet I don’t consider myself to be vain. Do you? 👈

Putting on makeup and fixing up my hair is part of my routine. I feel more confident with it. I think it’s fun to experiment! And yes, I feel it helps to accentuate some areas and make them look nicer ✨

What’s wrong with that??

Some people clean their homes excessively. Some work out excessively. Some get manicures every week.
I don’t! And I love me! 😘💖

❓ what do you think? Does wearing makeup and fixing your hair reflect unhappiness with oneself?
.
Ps: hair: 10-minute fix-up with Hydrate & Shine, plus a dusting of Greasy Bang Fix.
Makeup: whatever’s in that drawer 😁

Kid’s got knots? Frizz? Bird’s nest?
This WORKS - all hair types! ⭐️🤩

Forget the bonnets. They’re uncomfortable and I think it’s best to look like a pineapple than a cupcake 😂

Just tie it all up in a LOOSE, comfy bun at the top, yeah, like a 🍍

But protect it using a GOOD leave-in conditioner!
👉ANY hair type, even fine hair. You’ll see the shiny difference in the morning!

❓Do you wake up with frizzy hair?

No pressure! I think we have all had enough of that.

I see too many people that are stressed. Tired. Yawning all the time. Overworked. Overspent, insomniac and overextended. Here’s what to do:

1️⃣Step one:
Take your calendar and book some holidays NOW. Before life takes over

2️⃣Step two:
Find a hobby that will take you away from chores, electronics, work, and all the stress that surrounds you. Get out of the house!

3️⃣Step three:
Get into the habit of setting three intentions daily ✨ 3 things you want to accomplish that will make you happy you completed. It doesn’t matter how simple or complicated they are. Just 3!

4️⃣Step 4:
At the end of the day, lay in bed and be thankful for 3 things you accomplished today. Don’t overthink it.

5️⃣Step 5:
This year, find someone else to help. A charity. A neighbor. A cause you believe in. Get involved in “being the change” and don’t expect money for it.

❓What is one change you are making that will simplify your life this year?

🎄Feliz Navidad! Merry Christmas dears!

If you stuck around with me this far into the year, thank you 🙏 it’s been a heck of a ride…

My husband’s cancer treatments have taken a LOT out of all of us.
(He is the kindest soul you’ll ever know, so it has been heartbreaking seeing him go through this)

But now it is Christmas time and a time to be thankful! Joyous! And to look forward to the future 💪

Hug your loved ones a little tighter, unplug a little more, get outside, worry less. These are my goals and my wishes for you.

Next year we come back with a bang!! Can’t wait! (I’ve been working on two new products which are sooooo needed!!) 🤫

❓any guesses? 😁

There’s ONE in every family 👉They put the lid back on before it goes in the recycling bin 😒

Here’s the deal:
When two different materials (like a glass bottle with a metal lid) are combined in recycling, it complicates the recycling process costing us MILLIONS💰per year

♻️ mixed materials require manual separation - or advanced machinery. If the materials aren’t separated before recycling, the entire item gets sent to a landfill, because:
♻️ ie: metal pieces mixed with glass can damage expensive machinery, so these mixed materials are often just trashed
♻️ non-separation contaminates recycling streams, lowering the quality of the recycled material

In Toronto, for example, when contamination exceeds acceptable thresholds, recycling facilities charge municipalities significant fees (which we end up paying for). ❗️In 2019, Toronto paid an additional 3.5 million once contamination surpassed 27%, with an additional $500,000 for every additional percentage point beyond that* (chi-chinggg!🤑)

*Canada.ca/environment and climate change, April 2024

Small changes can make a big difference! Like separating the lid from the container 💪

🙋‍♀️This is why I chose the packaging I did for my products. Every single container you buy matters because recycling inefficiencies across Canada mean that only a small percentage of materials are successfully recycled 😭
BUT - we can make small differences like these, that add up to huge results! 😃

YES!! Leave-in conditioner on WET hair baby!💦

You: “How wet?”
Me: WET.

It doesn’t have to be ‘dripping’ wet, but wet - before the tips start to dry. You know: WET

Why? 🤔
💧It’s easier to spread through
💧You’ll use less product
💧Better coverage to every hair
💧The conditioning ingredients will flatten the cuticle, protecting it and making it look ✨shiny!✨
💧The light oils will lightly sit on TOP of your hair, like a light raincoat, bouncing off light. Yay light! 🙃💡

You: “and for thin / straight hair?”
Me: YES! You’ll just need less, you lucky you! Try it with your hair upside down so you avoid the roots 👌

The Hydrate & Shine leave-in I created is layer-able, so it works for ALL hair types! Best product of 2024! 🏆

❓Will you try this method and let me know your awesome results? 😃
PSST: it’s on sale. And it’s a great, usable gift! 🎁

Smooshed leaves protect tree roots, insulate perennials, and protect overwintering invertebrate species 🐛🪱🦋🐝

It’s FREE mulch! 💕

‼️Bonus: you’ll have more lush gardens with less weeds in the spring! 🎉🌿

Be the messy, leafy neighbour who advocates for nature! It’s a #lifelesson to #breakthemould

❓Curious Suzy wants to know: Do you think your lawn or garden will struggle if you don’t rake?

Have we become clean-obsessed?
How “dirty” are you anyway? 🤔

NO, Big foam won’t necessarily harm us, but - depending on the ingredient combinations used - it sure can harm our environment 😕

Last year I met a cosmetic chemist, who made hair products for LARGE, super big companies (many of them too… all in the same lab - for years!). Her thought process was:

“people want foamy, perfectly smelling shampoo in a pretty bottle. There is absolutely no need for spending money on fancy ingredients.” 😳

🤨Anyone else foaming at the mouth?? 😬

Me:
it DOES matter! 💪
People DO want better!✅
Nature-derived IS better! 100%! 🌿

Do our shampoos foam then?
👉Yes, all of them foam, yet it’s a light, creamy foam as we DO mix a lot of gentle, conditioning and protective ingredients.
👉 Powder to Liquid shampoo is the biggest foaming one, but that’s because it’s concentrated. So the more you add the more it will foam (the more you’ll go through too).
👉 And once your scalp adjusts to a gentler cleanser, you will NOT need to wash as often!
AAAHHHHH YESSSS!! 🥳🎉

Foam obsession must change.
As consumers we drive change!

Simplifying routines is possible. And we protect our planet in the long run 🌎

👉 Nature knows what it’s doing 🍂🍁 Check this out;

When people tell me they love the Fall season, they usually refer to the many colours of the trees.
❓but did you know there’s much more to fall than that? 🤔

🍁 the chemicals that make plants and leaves their vibrant colours (types of flavonoids, carotenoids and anthocyanins) concentrate on the leaves: it’s the perfect time to pick them and make tinctures for health benefits that will help us through the winter!

🍁 Dried leaves and seeds are meant to stay where they fall. Blowing them or raking them the trees and their root systems. Plus, animals depend on these seeds to get them through the winter (so stop raking!)

🍁 leaf litter is where many species of butterflies and moths overwinter as pupae. Animals like toads, shrews and salamanders benefit from leaf litter to hide and hunt, too (so stop raking!)

🍁 Leaves add nutrients and moisture to your soil, and create a natural mulch fertilizer as they decompose (so stop raking!)

🍁 Fall is a time for reflection, easing the mind, connecting with nature, and appreciating nature’s beautiful surroundings (so stop raking!)

❓ I’m curious:have you grown up with your parents raking the leaves every fall?

🛑STOP scalding your hair and scalp with a hair dryer!🥵🔥

Have you “plopped” before? Tried one of those microfibre towels “especially made for this“?

Well, did you know they are not eco-friendly? 😟 They are made of plastic threads thinner than a human hair, and they shed plastic bits that eventually end up in your water system 💦

✅Instead, try this super easy T-shirt plopping tutorial - no matter your hair type!

✅ Apply our Hydrate & Shine leave in conditioner before plopping, for soft, shiny, protected hair that smells amazing! 🤩✨

❓ will you give this a try? 💖

What’s grain-free, you ask?
It’s no: wheat, corn, rice, oat, barley, spelt, etc. ❌

Why?
My husband’s recent cancer diagnosis has meant a BIG change, to a super healthy, alkaline diet… and this bread-y thing is just sooo good and packed with nutrition, you gotta try it… so I had to share my work! 😋 (I studied Holistic Nutrition dontcha know 😁🌱)

1️⃣ In a big bowl, mix:
- 2/3 cup almond flour
- 3/4 cup tapioca flour
- 3 Tbsp coconut flour
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 Tbsp Italiano seasonings 💃🕺
- 3/4 tsp Himalayan salt

2️⃣ In a soup-sized bowl, mix:
- 1/3 cup water
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar

3️⃣ In a baby bowl, add:
- 1 flaxseed “egg” (1 Tbsp milled flaxseeds + 3 Tbsp water) You could use an egg instead

4️⃣ In another small bowl, add:
- 3 more Tbsp coconut flour

Now mix 1️⃣ through 3️⃣ together.
- Then sprinkle 4️⃣ in, bits at a time, and mix. It’ll be a big ball ⚽️

Flatten, shape, roll out, cut in pieces, whatever you want 🌤️ sky’s the limit! On parchment paper. If it’s too sticky, you can sprinkle some more tapioca flour on. The thinner, the crispier! BOOM 💪

Bake in 350F oven for 15-ish minutes, or til toasty-ish colour

✅YES, it’s high in (good) fats but YES, your brain needs fat, so enjoy!

Amazing for kids too… their little brains need the fat! And it’s delicious as a pizza crust OH MAMA! 🍕

❓will you try this recipe?
👉 Save this & share with a friend!

500+ YEARS 😳 that’s how long it takes for plastic bags to break down into microplastics 😭
(Microplastics never disappear… only get smaller - and make their way into you water)

Did you know microplastics have been found in breast milk? 👩‍🍼
And in men’s testes? 🏀🏀
(Holy sh*t Batman, that’s scary)

🌱Please don’t accept bags. Ever.
🌱Skip plastic produce bags and use mushroom paper bags instead
🌱Buy in bulk! Bring your containers too!
🌱Compostable bags may take longer to break down in regular soil than through municipal programs, but they WILL break down into water, a small amount of CO2, and humus (a nutrient-rich, organic material)

There are better options:
🛍️ Buy @ecosafezw EcoPooch bags through their website (ecosafe.green), or on Amazon
🛍️Buy PC kitchen compostables at any Loblaws market ($12 for 120)
(No affiliation here)

Who’s too busy? 🙋‍♀️ I just CAN’T!

Remember: everything you put on your skin and hair will end up down the drain. And every piece of #packaging will end up somewhere- they don’t just “get recycled” 😕

I prefer to follow a #simpleroutine that’s #minimalistic - it may not work for everyone and that’s fine too. Just remember that there ARE multitasking products out there! 💪

❓What’s your #hairroutine like?

😳 Out of 1.3 MILLION tonnes of clothing available in Canada/year*, 1.1 million end up in landfill 😭

The balance are reused, and a tiny amount are recycled into rags 😕

👉 #thrifting is GOOD!
Don’t feel ashamed! 💖

And when you’re done wearing your thrifts, #donate them again!
It’s #circularity at its best🌱

We cannot keep dumping stuff in the landfill ppl… this must 🛑✋!
This is a super easy (and fun!) way to #bethechange 💪

What’s the last thing you bought at a thrift store? 👇👇👇

Have you heard? Did you *really* listen? 🤔

Much of what affects our mood ➡️ our thoughts ➡️ our day ➡️ is connected to what we hear. In this extra busy, fast-paced world where we’re “supposed to” multitask, sometimes just… listening… can help ground us. And we need it!

For these same reasons I mindfully meditate (recently about 15x per day! 😅) and I choose what I listen to cautiously!

The #greenbeautyconversations podcast by @formulabotanica ‘s CEO @lorrainedalmeier is right up there one of my go-to’s 💪 It’s provocative, earth-smart 🌎 and sustainably-focused 🌱 (like me! 😁).

I listen in when I’m driving, cooking, sometimes cycling, etc. and when I need a little #inspiration 🥰

❓What are you listening to?
What inspires you?

As a manufacturer, why would we be asking you to buy less “stuff”?

That’s because we believe in a minimalistic lifestyle, a simpler routine, and using products that are multitasking and go farther!

🌱 everything we put on our skin and hair will eventually make it down the drain.

🌱 and most things we use come in some form of packaging - unfortunately, most products: in plastic 🫤

YES - in this case, less is best!

✅ be proud to have less clothing in your closet, less makeup in the drawer, less items on your bathroom shelf

✅ instead, shop mindfully 🥰🙏

✅In short: yes
❌In long: you DON’T have to! Here’s the thing:

If you’re seeing split ends, they gotta go 😩 and a random trim is not going to cut it (get it? “Cut it”? 😆)

Little bitty trims like this may make you feel better, but those split hairs you miss will zzzzipper up.
✂️Cut it.
Like an inch.
Just giv’r, no fear!

If you’re seeing split ends it’s because your hair is DRY.
The oils your scalp makes aren’t making it aaaall the way down, so you gotta improvise ‘cause prevention is *always* the best route!
👉 Use a leave-in conditioner
Or a nice, light hair oil.

🎉And we got both! (Check out the website - best EVER!)

I don’t pick up gooey, snotty, poopy doggie bags, tissues or soggy bags, but let me tell you:

There’s a LOT of plastic out there.
