How to Clean Out and Clean Up your Make Up Bag

January 14, 2020January 14, 2020

Have you cleaned out and cleaned up your make-up bag yet this year? No? Now is the time!! Spend some time looking up the ingredients of what you’re currently using and don’t forget to check those expiration dates! I just realized my mascara is over 6 months old and optometrists recommend you replace it every 3 months for eye health! No wonder my eyes have been bugging me…who knows what’s lurking in that tube.

Self Care Can be as Simple as Skin Care: Start a Skin Care Regimen in 2020!

December 30, 2019December 30, 2019

It’s been a while since I’ve been on a formal skin care routine. Since I cleared up my acne, I never really got back to taking care of my skin – soap and water and a moisturizer. But, now, nearing a new decade, years of sun-damage becoming apparent and my skin just feeling “congested” (no acne, but dull and clogged pores), I knew it was time to face it head on. I tried all kinds of “natural” and “organic” products without results. (Not to mention, with the lack of regulation in the cosmetics industry, those words have little meaning).

Review: A Compostable Phone Case by Pela Case

August 23, 2019January 16, 2020

Hello, Snow Happy community!! One of things we care about here at Snow Happy is protecting this great Earth that provides for our daily adventures. And, one of the ways we do this is by using as little single-use plastic items as possible, like packing zero waste lunches when we are on the go. Recently, I got a new phone and the amount packaging was shocking (think those kids’ toys at Christmas levels of packaging), which held a non-recyclable plastic phone case.

I want to share with you all something that has been on my heart lately and always bubbling below the surface. How much packaging and plastic that enters and leaves my house each week. I know, I know, touchy subject, but this isn’t about climate change or global warming.
