Best natural beauty brands for women and men, discovered
More to come on the personal aspect... I know y'all love a good personal
life update, and trust me, I'll fill you in when I'm able. But this post is
focusing on the professional things I'm transitioning to, which I think will
probably be of interest to most of you.
Blogging has changed. When I started, it was about sharing ideas and
thoughts and DIYs. It was a community. Back when I started, I loved
everything about blogging! It was such a fun creative outlet, and I
genuinely enjoyed meeting other bloggers, bouncing ideas off them, writing
what was on my heart, and sharing my life with complete strangers on the
internet. It also morphed into my major source of income, which was a huge
bonus.
Blogging looks a little different now. I still love writing and idea
sharing, but I'd prefer to talk about the things that I'm passionate about
and that really matter to me. Taking on sponsored posts makes that
challenging. One of the things I dislike most about reading other blogs are
the sponsored posts that talk about products I KNOW that blogger doesn't
use, and potentially doesn't even like. Frankly, it ruins the efficacy of
the whole blog for me. I don't want this to be *that* kind of blog, so I'm
switching my strategy. If brands are an excellent, and I mean seamless fit,
for me and for the niche of this blog, I'll absolutely tell you about them.
But I don't want to sell my soul or bore you will marketing content on
brands that are of no interest to you.
All that said, I've fostered a new relationship with a natural beauty brand that I absolutely stand behind. Their products are, hands down, the best
I've experienced in my (nearly) 36 years of living. It's a small company
that handcrafts it's products in small batches from Colorado, and the owner
is a complete gem. In fact, she donates (and it's a SHE owned company to
boot!) a portion of her profits to end child trafficking, which as a mom of
four children, I support 1000%.
I've honestly never been so excited to be a part of a company, and am proud
to be a product ambassador for such high quality products that are organic,
sustainable, helpful and woman-business-owned-centric.
If you're interested in learning more, you can
follow my Instagram account here, and I've also created a Facebook group to educate on natural beauty
products, share DIYs, and essentially support a more natural lifestyle with
a heavy focus on education and community.
If that interests you, I'd love for you to join us, so click here to get
