Navigating The World of ‘Clean’ and ‘Acne-Safe’ Makeup

by Alice Christine

I’m so excited to share with you my latest ‘clean’ makeup haul! One of the hardest pills to swallow along my journey to healing from hormonal acne was that I had to stop using my ENTIRE makeup collection. Prior to meeting with a FNTP (Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner), I was completely in the dark when it came to being aware of my toxic-load. Not only were my makeup and skincare products full of endocrine disrupting ingredients, but pore-clogging ingredients as well! It was very overwhelming as a beauty lover to learn that I had to start from scratch and learn […]

My Life Has Changed Forever

by Alice Christine

It’s about time for an update as I haven’t published a blog post since October of last year. My life has changed drastically and I am still right in the thick of it. What started off as a series of unfortunate events led me straight into the most life altering of all…my Grandmother passed away. For anyone, a grandparent passing away is a tough thing to go through. However my Grandma Jessie wasn’t only my grandmother; she was like a second mother to my sisters and I. Grandma Jessie moved into our home when I was eight years old and […]

by Alice Christine

Hola Amigos! This past Monday my family and I ventured out to the quaint town of Yucaipa to visit Los Rios Ranchos and pick apples.

Jaclyn Hill x Morphe Vault Collection

by Alice Christine

Today’s post is dedicated to the very controversial, very beautiful Jaclyn Hill x Morphe Vault Collection. My journey with these palettes has been anything but simple. But I’m not gonna bore you will all the details and just get to it. The collection I purchased on launch day was crap. It did not blend well, was patchy, and inconsistent. Thank God, I was able to exchange it for a new set and lucked out on getting a better made collection! When I first laid eyes on the four palettes that make up The Vault Collection, I knew I would be […]
