Thank you so much for stopping by my channel and spending some of your time with me! I started this channel as a way to share my makeup journey with fellow beauty enthusiasts. All the products I use are cruelty-free, and I focus mostly on drugstore products. I love trying new products, but I also try to stick to the “use what you have” mindset. Subscribe to my channel for makeup & skincare reviews, shop my stash/project pan videos, chatty GRWM’s and more!

I am always looking for a good dandruff shampoo, I haven’t tried the Derma E one yet, so maybe I’ll give it a try!
I definitely want to try that brand of candles yet! Also where'd you get your mirror from? I'm looking for a mirror exactly like that – it has a light right? 😊
Do your empties videos as often as you like! They're what got me sucked in to your channel!:)
I totally use bar soap to replace body wash. I like the Dr Bronner lavender scent which is pretty hydrating. It is a little expensive but worth it to save on waste 😊
I bought the Real Techniques sponge to replace my beauty blender that is falling apart but I just prefer my beauty blender so I'm using it until it falls apart completely lol. I'm excited for fall too, even though it came so fast! Pine & cozy spice scents like spiced apple are my fave.
I actually wanted to buy that nature's gate tanner a while back but it was discontinued when I decided to buy it, nice to know I didn't miss out on much lol..have you ever tried replacing facial cleanser with bar soap? I've been trying to find one that I actually like and doesn't dry my skin out..
I am cruelty free on everything except contact solution… I just buy the Walmart brand. I wish they made a more affordable one that is cruelty free. 😊
My favorite cruelty free toothpaste is from Dr. Bronners! I don’t remember how much it costs though.
oooh i think i need to place and a to z order soon too!! cozy blanket sounds like my fall vibe!
Empties are my favorites! I just buy the eye solution once a year, 4 bottles last me a year when there's a coupon or % off from vitacost!
I love empties videos! =) So just keep doing them as often as you can! =)
I would love to hear more about how you compost. Do you live in an apartment? How do you do it?
That Kirk's castile soap is great for washing brushes too
the only sponge i’ve found i like almost as much as the beauty blender is the ecotools ones! they’re so soft and the shape of it makes it really easy to use. and you should just do empties videos whenever your basket is full, don’t force yourself on a schedule for it!! ❤️
Nice video; helpful info! It would be interesting to hearing more about your move to less waste especially in terms of beauty products.
Yay for empties! Honestly you can leave it up in the air and do it every few months when your basket is full.
I’m going to try derma e dandruff b/c salicylic acid is what helps my scalp, but it has other ingredients that my HG Selsun Blue doesn’t have.
Have you tried the AOA Paw Paw sponge? I’ve never tried the original Beauty Blender, but I LOVE the AOA one! And it’s only $1 and some cents <3
I've been looking for more easy switches to reduce waste too. I think bar soap will be an easy switch for my family as well. I also want to try the LUSH shampoo bars
Cool amount of empties 😀 btw. If you have been wanting to try out somw too faced products, they are having a sale on their web site. I have managed to get a chocolate soleil bronzer and lipstick (both mini) for 6$!
Gah! I went cruelty-free a few years ago, or at least attempted to, but it seems like there's something I'm always forgetting to look for a cruelty-free version of! I just realized I needed cruelty-free deodorant last year! Contact solution & laundry soap haven't even been on my radar, but I was seriously considering switching to castile soap for most things. I see it for good prices @ TJ Maxx all the time. This is why YouTube is so helpful! We can learn from each other!
In my area (rural South), it can be pretty difficult to find cruelty-free brands. I tend to order a lot of things online, but paying for shipping chips away at my soul! Although, it's probably pretty comparable to driving an hour to the nearest retailer with the product I'm looking for.
There's no recycling program in my county or any surrounding ones; if we compost, we just use it for our own landscaping or gardens; I struggle to find gluten-free food less than an hour away… save me. Lol
CF contact solution! Cool! (Sadly my eyes are super sensitive, and I stick with Bio True, but very good to know.)
Your eyeshadow is beautiful!
Cvs in house is cruelty free- go for their contact solution!
