✨ If we were shopping at Sephora this Christmas, these are the nontoxic-ish picks we’d actually add to cart. Because let’s be real — sometimes it’s not about being perfectly clean, it’s about choosing the better option when that’s what’s available.

If you’re already browsing Sephora, these swaps will help you feel good about what’s going on your skin (and under the tree). 🎁💄

Daily habits that keep me feeling my best ✨

Moving my lymph, getting sunshine, and choosing nontoxic activewear that supports my body instead of stressing it.

We love Quince

I’ve linked my favorite vibration plate (a total game changer for lymph flow + energy) and the nontoxic activewear I actually wear on repeat. Small swaps, big difference 🌿

This organic matching set is my go-to for mom days — whether I’m working from home, running errands, or traveling. 🤎 It’s soft, breathable, and made without plastic fabrics (because comfort shouldn’t come at the cost of our health).

It’s one of those outfits that makes you feel calm, comfy, and still totally put together.

#organiccotton #nontoxicfashion #momstyle #wfhoutfit #traveloutfit #ltkfashion #healthyhome

#LTKWorkwear #LTKPetite #LTKTravel

The rest of these products are organic or made from better materials - perfect for a nontoxic crunchy mamas holiday!

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHoliday

Three nontoxic toiletries that actually work and are super affordable — all from Amazon 🌿✨
You don’t have to spend a fortune to swap to cleaner options. These are my go-tos for daily use and they check all the boxes: safe ingredients, gentle on skin, and easy to grab with Prime. Because healthy living doesn’t have to mean expensive living 💛

I finally found an affordable organic memory foam pillow on Amazon — and it’s actually comfy 😴🌿

We spend a third of our lives with our face buried in a pillow, so what it’s made of really matters. Choosing organic means fewer toxins near your skin and cleaner air while you sleep. Small swaps like this add up in a big way 💚

Linked the one I grabbed (and a few others worth trying) #balancedfriends #nontoxichome #amazonfinds #organicliving

The world’s best organic neutral cardigan (it’s actually part of a matching set!)!! Also my current favorite mostly organic mom jeans that are only $50 🙌🏼

#LTKFindsUnder100 #LTKSeasonal

If you’ve ever seen that yellow tag on kids’ pajamas and wondered what it means — this post is for you 💛
It actually means those PJs are free from flame retardant chemicals — which is exactly what we want! Those chemicals can build up in our homes and on our kids’ skin, and they don’t make sleep any safer.

Snug, breathable cotton or bamboo PJs with that tag are the safer choice — softer, cozier, and way cleaner for bedtime 🌙✨

I’m showing our new sets in this video (they’re so cute + nontoxic!)

#LTKFamily #LTKFindsUnder50 #LTKKids

I’ve officially found the perfect robe 🌿 This bamboo robe is everything I’ve been looking for — lightweight, breathable, and made from nontoxic materials that are better for your skin. Unlike synthetic fabrics, bamboo is naturally hypoallergenic, moisture-wicking, and free from harsh chemicals that can irritate sensitive skin. It’s cozy enough for slow mornings but light enough for year-round wear 🤍

#LTKStyleTip #LTKSeasonal #LTKFindsUnder100

Snagged this VERY affordable holiday sweater today! It’s made with overall better materials and is perfect for the holidays. The matching shirts we got for the men are 100% cotton and under $10 right now 🙌🏼

#LTKFindsUnder100 #LTKSeasonal #LTKHoliday

My lips have never felt this soft 😍 The new OneSkin Lip Mask blends clean ingredients with serious skin science — repairing, hydrating, and strengthening your lips’ barrier (without any questionable fillers or fragrances). 💋
It uses their signature OS-01 peptide to target skin aging at the source — so you’re not just moisturizing, you’re actually improving skin health over time.

There’s just something so grounding about baking sourdough from scratch 🤍 From the smell filling the kitchen to that first warm slice with butter — it never gets old.

Let’s talk rugs — the cozy layer that makes a home feel warm but can secretly bring unwanted chemicals into your space. 🫣

I always look for rugs made from natural fibers like wool, jute, or organic cotton — free from synthetic backing, flame retardants, and VOCs. They’re safer for little ones to play on and better for the air we breathe. 🌿

Here are some healthier rug options that are both beautiful and low-tox — perfect for any room of your home✨

Winter air can do a number on your sinuses — especially when the heat’s running nonstop. ❄️ Instead of reaching for harsh sprays or meds, here are some gentle, non-toxic ways to support your sinuses this season:

✨ A good humidifier to keep the air moist
🌿 A saline spray made without preservatives
🌸 Essential oil steam bowls (just a drop of eucalyptus or peppermint!)
🫖 Herbal teas that soothe inflammation from the inside out

These are my go-to sinus savers that actually help me breathe easier all winter long. Everything is mama- and kid-friendly, too. 💚
