Elate Cosmetics Crème Lipstick Review & Swatches – Plenty, Warrior, Grace, Blaze, Vivacious & Tantric
Elate Cosmetics have an entire cosmetics range based on sustainability and conscious living. Most of their range is housed in bamboo and their refillable Pro Palette looks like a much better choice than a Z palette, but for now I’ll be reviewing their crème lipsticks! While the company has no organic certification overall, they do…
How I Tell the Difference Between Normal Hair Shed & Alopecia Areata
I celebrated my 30th birthday last year and in doing so have lived with hair loss for 10 years. I’m surprised at how something abnormal has become such an integral part of my life. I changed my entire lifestyle to grow my hair back and now that lifestyle is just normal! Dorky picture aside, this…

Natural & Organic Skincare Empties – April 2019
I haven’t done one of these in a while because in my pursuit of clearing my skin, I’ve been testing quite a few new products. I have pretty reactive skin and unfortunately some of the new ones have joined my skincare graveyard, so they’ll never be finished! If you’re curious about those then I’d be…
10 Natural and Organic Coral Lipsticks
I’ve always been drawn to coral. It can be soft and sweet or bright and shocking. It’s Pantone’s Living Colour of the year too, so that means most of your favourite makeup companies will be highlighting their own versions of this beautiful shade and I can bet there’s a perfect shade out there for you….
8 Organic, Natural & Non-toxic Red Lipsticks
I collated all my vegan reds into one post for World Vegan month, so I thought I’d do the same for my other reds. You can find that post here: 10 Organic, Natural, Vegan and Cruelty Free Red Lipsticks for World Vegan Month Though these aren’t strictly vegan, all these companies are dedicated to creating…
Ilia Beauty Colour Block High Impact Lipstick Review & Swatches
The original version of Ilia Beauty’s lipsticks were beautiful and highly pigmented in the first place, so it’ll be interesting to see if any changes they’ve made will improve an already good formula. The first thing I noticed about the ingredients list of the Colour Block High Impact Lipstick, is that it’s grown substantially from…
Earthwise Beauty Skincare Review – Resiliency Face Serum & Yasuni Face Balm
I’ll warn you in advance, they’ll be a fair amount of gushing in this post. So far there are only a few skincare must haves I’ve found and I’m happy to say that these two are included in the list. Maybe I’ll put together my must haves in a separate post! Earthwise are one of…
Beautifēk Lipsticks Review & Swatches – Amber, Coral, Ruby & Garnet
I’m actually excited when I find new companies to test out, particularly those that stand out from the others. Beautifēk Lipsticks are one of those few. Their entire range is free of titanium dioxide and mica and they’ve added tumeric powder for their healing properties. It also gives these lipsticks amazing staying power but more…
