Blog Update!
For those of you not following me on Facebook, as of the Summer of 2019 I've moved to Central WA, to a tiny mountain town of less than 1,000 people.

I will be covering my exploits here in the Cascades, as I try to further reduce my impact on the environment. With the same attitude, just at a higher altitude!

The Story of Cosmetics

If you liked The Story of Stuff, the creators of that video have just released The Story of Cosmetics, a short video (8 minutes) explaining all the nasties you will find in your personal care products.

Make sure you check it out and, more importantly, make sure you start checking your product labels!

It is terrifying what kinds of ingredients widely used cosmetics contain and the long term effects that they can have.

But my confession is that I still use prescription acne topicals daily. I have tried every natural method and nothing has worked.

I am in a constant internal struggle between having clear skin and using harmful chemicals or having horrible skin, being depressed, and being free from the chemicals.

Right now, the chemicals unfortunately win.
