There's a reason why my nurse told me to remove my nail polish when I gave birth to my daughter, and I'm sure you know that reason very well too! IT'S TOXIC!
I don’t remember the last time I wore nail polish on my fingernails for this reason, and honestly, I MISS IT! There’s just something about beautifully painted nails that make me feel good about myself; like I’m a woman who sees the value in taking care of herself! I’m sure I’m not the only one who feels this way. Well, lucky for me and my fellow nailaholics, there are safer options out there and I’m glad more and more brands are getting rid of a number of harmful chemicals from their nail polish formula! Londontown is one of these brands!
Read MoreSwitching to using ONLY clean makeup" sounds pretty overwhelming and scary at first, I'm not going to deny that.
It is daunting for sure because it means you’re gonna have to commit and make sacrifices along the way . The road to #cleanbeauty is a tough one, but it’s actually not as hard as we think.

Over the past two decades, the European Union has banned close to 1,400 chemicals in the product formulas of personal care products and restricted the levels of over 250 more in such products. The United States has only partially banned 30! 3o!!! With all of that said, it’s scary to think that there are thousands and thousands of harmful chemicals in the products we use daily, from soaps, shampoos, house cleaning products, baby products, our skincare and makeup products, so on and so forth. And guess what? Brands still continue to produce products with these chemicals knowing that they are bad for us!

Read MoreNowadays, in my makeup routine, less is definitely more!
To my fellow mommies, you know exactly what I mean. We simply have got no time to do a full face of cake-face! Amen? I’m not gonna lie and I’m a little ashamed to admit this, but I had a really challenging time cutting down the makeup products that I use on my face! I was so used to a full blown makeup look that I forgot to work with what I got: my natural beauty!
