Sustainable Shaving: Leaf Shave Razor Review & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #257
The older I get, the more aware I become of all of the unnecessary waste that we make as humans. It is so excessive sometimes that it makes my soul ache. So I am always looking for ways to minimize my own negative impact on the environment. We have truly become a throw away society.

We can buy something, use it until we are done, then toss in…

And I…

As the new year has just rolled on in, it’s a great time to update your underwear. Throw out the old and bring in the new! My underwear drawer gets the least attention of any other clothing storage space in my house. I tend to grow very attached to my favorite underwear, wearing them until they become a source of embarrassment were anyone else to ever see them. Those old comfy, stretched out granny panties have served me well for a while now but it is really time for a complete underwear makeover. While I do keep some sexy lacy bits on hand for when sexy underwear are in order,…

Environmentally Friendly Laundry Products for Baby
Of all the things that we are responsible for looking after in life, our children are our main priority. We want all the best things for our babies from the moment they come into our lives. But giving all the best to our children does not mean that we should disregard other responsibilities like protecting our environment and our planet for the future generations. There are so many things to consider when trying to live a more environmentally sustainable lifestyle. It is important to choose products that don’t contribute more damage to the environment. But it is equally important to choose products that are gentle on your baby’s skin as…
