If you’re looking to clean up your makeup routine, your eyebrow pencil is a great place to start ✨ I’m sharing my favorite nontoxic eyebrow pencil from Toups & Co. — made with clean, organic ingredients and no hormone-disrupting junk. It goes on smoothly, looks natural, and actually stays put without irritating sensitive skin. Proof that safer beauty can still perform 🤍 Linked here if you’re wanting a healthier swap for your brows. #LTKgrwm #LTKBeauty #LTKmomlife
SPF for your lips that actually checks my boxes ☀️💋 This OneSkin SPF lip gloss is non-toxic, hydrating, not sticky, and easy to reapply throughout the day. Clean ingredients + real sun protection for one of the most overlooked areas. Linked here for you 🫶🏼 #LTKBeauty #LTKTravel #LTKFindsUnder50
Sharing my go-to nontoxic lip combo from OGEE because what we put on our lips matters just as much as what we put in our bodies. 💋✨ Conventional lipsticks can hide so many questionable ingredients, and we end up ingesting a lot of it throughout the day. OGEE’s clean, nourishing formulas are my absolute favorite—beautiful colors, amazing hydration, and ingredients I can trust. Linking my favorite shade + gloss so you can make the swap to safer lips this season. This is the perfect stocking stuffer gift 🎁 #LTKGiftGuide #LTKCyberWeek #LTKSaleAlert

What I ate during my 7-day functional medicine liver detox ✨ Simple, grounding foods over here—quality meat, lots of veggies, and all the soups. One of my favorite things about detoxing in the colder months is how easy it is to make a warm, healing soup that supports digestion, minerals, and liver function while keeping me satisfied🤍 If you’re thinking about detoxing, use code BALANCEDFRIENDS on EquiLife’s website for a discount✨ Linking healthy kitchen things here for you too 🫶🏼 #LTKfoodie #LTKvlog #LTKmomlife
Day 7 of 7 ✨ I wasn’t perfect. I started my period halfway through. And the scale? It doesn’t get the final say. What does matter is that I supported my body, dumped stored toxins, and gave my liver some real love. I feel mentally lighter, physically less inflamed, and more connected to my body than I did on day one. Detoxing isn’t about perfection or punishment—it’s about intention, awareness, and support. And this one did exactly what I needed it to do 🤍 If you’re ready to the detox a try use code BALANCEDFRIENDS for a discount on EquiLife website ✨ #LTKdayinmylife #LTKvlog #LTKmomlife
Day 6 update 🤍 I started my period this morning, and yes—detoxing can impact your cycle. If you’re trying to prevent pregnancy, be mindful. If you’re trying to conceive, this could be supportive. Sharing my real-time experience so you feel informed, empowered, and know what to expect during a functional medicine liver detox ✨ Use code BALANCEDFRIENDS on the EquiLife website for a discount. #LTKvlog #LTKmomlife #LTKmorningroutine

✨ A little luxury for a season that gives so much. ✨ One of the gifts I’m so excited to give Nikki as a new mama 🤍 Wear Hone creates beautiful breastfeeding pieces made from cashmere + wool — incredibly soft, non-toxic, and gentle on sensitive postpartum skin.

Nothing healthy here - just a glimpse into my daily life 💛 A little refresh for my shelves since they looked so naked after the holiday decor came down. Swapped in a few lighter, natural pieces to make our space feel fresh, calm, and intentional again. It’s amazing how small decor changes can shift the energy of a room. All shelf decor + home finds are linked if you need them 🫶🏼 Saving this as a reminder that you don’t need a full makeover—just a thoughtful refresh ✨ #LTKdayinmylife #LTKSeasonal #LTKHome
Slow progress, but done the right way 🤍 Our stair carpet install got pushed to Thursday because this natural fiber needs a full 24 hours to rest before installation. Following the install directions carefully is key so the edges don’t peel or fray—and so this carpet lasts for years to come. Sharing all the details once the project is finished soon ✨ #LTKHome #LTKvlog #LTKdayinmylife
