DIY Salt Scrub for face and body
We’ve all been there ⏤ attacked by kiosk salespeople at the mall ⏤ coerced into trying their body lotion, hair barrettes and my personal fave ⏤ their dead sea mineral body scrub.

But, I find the price tag on these products to be straight disrespectful!

How to disinfect your cutting board
Let us think for a moment about alllll of the things we use our cutting boards for: chopping that apple 🍎, mincing garlic and onion, and cubing the occasional tofu block. Now, not any one of these is bad per sé, but think of all the remnants each of these sessions have left on the cutting board over the course of its life. Let’s be honest, cutting boards have the potential to become petri dishes that keep on giving. It is up to alllll of us to make sure they aren’t giving us food-illness or anything icky of the sort! Here are the things I use and the steps I follow to keep mine as germ-free as possible and disinfect my cutting board.

DIY Facial oil
My DIY Facial Oil is my secret to clear, radiant skin. Scroll down for the full recipe! If you think you don’t like face oils or avoid them because you have oily skin, I encourage you to reconsider! It’s a common misconception to avoid oil on your face, and I thought the same in the past as well. But I encourage you to flip over the moisturizing skincare products you are currently using — they probably contain oil, so imho, we are cutting out the bad stuff here. I know you probably think the recipe is a bit extra, and you’re right! Sooo, feel free to adjust the recipe as needed.
