Our skin is our largest organ, so let’s all take good care of it! Thank you to the team of top dermatologists who are helping to save my skin — GOOD NEWS. I’m sharing my skin cancer journey to help remind us to wear sunscreen and sun hats and to get our skin checked often.

Hi friends, and welcome to October! How are we here already?! This does happen to be one of my favorite times of the year living in New England.
This season is extra special this year as we are doing something very unique here at Beautycounter. Our team is hoping to sponsor 1,000 clean beauty pouches in the month of October.
As you all know by now, I am always trying to make safer choices for myself and my family whenever possible. But let’s be honest, these switches have to be easy and they have to work.
In my quest to find a safer, healthier deodorant, I have tried several different ones. This is tricky because I work out every single day, which means the deodorant I use has to stand up to my workouts. While I have had moderate success with some of these safer brands, I have not been 100% satisfied. And as we wait for Beautycounter to launch a safe deodorant (we hope soon), I have finally found a new option that I love, and it’s working great for me! Plus, it does NOT stain my clothes.
Happy spring everyone! As the weather begins to slowly change (I am still waiting for the weather to warm up here in coastal Connecticut—I know it’s coming soon), so does my appetite for trying new things.
From food to fashion, here are five things I am totally obsessed with right now. Here they are in no particular order:
It’s time to think about spring break!
As I sit here on snow day number three in Connecticut, I’m looking forward to lots of sunshine and beach time on our spring break in Florida.
Some of you know I have skin cancer, and I have to be very careful when I’m out in the sun. This is why I am always on the hunt for stylish UPF clothing, and one of my favorite brands is Cabana Life. I’m excited to share my collaboration with this awesome company.
Are you ready to make a clean swap?
My initial thought was to update the Healthy Switches blog I wrote a year ago, but because I have learned a lot in the past year—and have started using some other clean, safe products in our house—I decided to write a whole new post about what I’ve learned. This is a journey, and I am constantly discovering as I go!
Happy summer 2017!
With summer comes lots of fun times outside with friends and family. And since we live on the beach in coastal Connecticut, we spend most of our summer outdoors.
As I have shared with you all before, I have skin cancer, so I need to be extra careful when I’m in the sun. I am always looking for stylish but safe UPF clothing brands to protect my skin from further damage. Although I’ve tried several different types of UPF clothing brands, one of the brands that I love for myself and for my kids is Cabana Life.
It seems we have fast tracked into summer with sunny and hot days already here.
Since I am a skin cancer gal, I am NOT able to lay out in the sun or get any color from the sun. Basically the sun hates me. But the problem is I love having color and getting a “tan” or a summer glow. The good news is I can get that whole look from some of my go-to’s from Beautycounter. Here is my triple threat for a faux glow: Dew Skin Tinted Moisturizer, Glow Shimmer Oil and Color Contour Matte Bronzer.
Are you looking to make some healthier decisions in the new year? Simple, healthy switches are important, and if you haven’t started yet, now is the perfect time! The new year gives all of us a chance to start fresh and new. And if I can do this, so can you!
Progress not perfection is my mantra. Making small changes in your house can make a big difference when it comes to how many toxic chemicals are coming into your home.
Ladies, we love our skin, and we take care of it as much as we can, but we’re not the only ones who want our face to feel silky when we touch it. Our men want it too! Try it, ask them if you haven’t already.
Many men tend to use men’s face cleansers to wash off the day’s grime. If they’re using a wash such as Dove Men +Care, Nivea for Men Moisturising Face Wash, or Neutrogena Invigorating Face Wash then they’re exposing themselves to toxins as well. Those cleansers, as many other popular commercial cleansers, are full of parabens, artificial fragrances, sulfates, allergens and more (just read the labels).
