I always learn something when I’m researching and writing a blog post, like how Bakuchiol is not actually a kind of Retinol, or how eczema is often triggered by dietary factors, but rarely does a post influence me to change my habits so drastically!

How do we make it special for all of us stuck at home? Obviously, we won’t get the usual brunches out or massages or spa gift […]

You know how sometimes, you hear a word or phrase tossed around so often that you feel like it’s too late to ask what the heck it means? This was the case for me with Bakuchiol. Suddenly last year, this word was everywhere in green beauty. But I didn’t really know what it was, or […]

There is no way, if you’re reading this, that you have not already heard (and read!) a ton about COVID-19 and the pandemic of this novel coronavirus. So I’m not going to give you more facts, or try to make you feel calm about it, or freak you out about it. Because it’s here, and […]

There’s something magical about Blue Tansy, starting with the name, which sounds whimsical and mysterious on its own, and continuing on to its properties— Blue Tansy is known to be anti-inflammatory, among other attributes— and ending with its remarkable scent.
