I'm Back

It has been years since my last post! I've had many changes and blogging regularly just wasn't as easy to fit into my schedule. I've missed it and am back with so much to talk about. Since my last post, I have had some major career changes as well as lifestyle adjustments. I opened up my own skin care and massage therapy business and couldn't be happier. My business is called Fresh Face and Body and you definitely see more about it in the near future. Not only that, but I transitioned from vegetarian to vegan. This wasn't too big of an adjustment for me since I wasn't eating cheese at all and replaced most dairy products. The main thing was reading labels and making small adjustments to be 100% plant based. I originally became a vegetarian for the animals so becoming vegan made sense. I honestly wasn't fully aware of how violent the dairy industry is, and I cannot support it any longer! You will be seeing a lot more about living a vegan lifestyle as well as more skin care and massage therapy related posts. I hope you enjoy the changes!

Veggie Challenge

I saw this on Vegetarian Community's facebook page this morning and wanted to share it:


"This World is making up by each and everyone of us. Please Join our 1st Vegetarian Challenge Below to be part of the Change we wish to see in the world. Please kindly share 1 thing/act you will do in this month to spread benefits of Vegetarian/Vegan or Help someone choose (or become one) more Veggie Meal. Even 1 "Extra" Veggie Meals can help!!!

Please Remember: Many people choose to become a Vegetarian/Vegan for many reasons:
1) Compassion
2) Health benefit for ourselves
3) Go green, loving earth and for Future Generation
4) Hunger
5) Religion

As long we share it with Respect (to other), Kindness and Patience (not everyone is “ready” at the moment we share). Eventually this seed will grow become a Big tree.

Each one of us can be a drop of water, but together We can from the Ocean of Kindness. Or Go Green, whatever reason you choose to promote this Vegetarianism/Veganism.

This World Need you. Your participation is Essential and will influence the world. Because this World is make up by all of us.

Coming Up Roses

Since it's almost Valentine's Day, I wanted to do a post on roses. Rose has many benefits on the skin and for one's overall health. Rose oil promotes a youthful complexion and helps with elasticity in the skin. The plant also offers a soothing property for the mind. It's a sedative and stress relieving aromatherapy and helps with the nerves. Check out Organic Spa Magazine's article for some healthy rose products. http://www.organicspamagazine.com/2012/01/coming-up-roses/

Play Time

I have a few organic products that I'm testing out right now. The first product is a nice size sample from Ilike Organic Skin Care. It is their Age Defense Bioflavonoid Eye Cream. The other items are Blemish Be Gone and the Facial Rejuvenating Mask from Juice Beauty. I'm a week into my skin care play time, but I will be posting reviews once I get to know the products better. I can't wait to share my results. :)
