WOW! the first @thekindfestival was kinda magic ✨. A gloriously sunfilled gathering delving honestly in to kindness (to yourself, others, the planet) across various topics including beauty, pleasure, social media, fashion, motherhood and healing. So much food for thought that I'm still digesting. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ It was an honour to be part of the day. Thank you @peakradiance, everyone I met and all the fabs speakers who dropped so many gems. Extra hugs to this awesome lot for all their wise words on the #cleanbeauty panel that I moderated. Love that we covered the gamut from best lippies to colonial agriculture! Be sure to follow➡️@afrohairandskinco @vanzeebeauty @hollyrose.eco @loudartford_mua 💚⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Choosing kindness isn't always easy or comfortable but it's a choice you'll never regret!⁠ ⁠. . . . . #thekindfestival #cleanbeauty #wellbeing #sutainableliving #choosewell #mindfullving #wonderlustingbeauty #recentrelondon #mindbodysoul #sustainable #freeyourmind #greenbeautycommunity #shamandurek #healingjourney #nourishyourself #mindbodygreen #goop

Congrats @britbeautycouncil @coventgardenldn on the inaugural @londonbeautyweek celebrating the mighty multi-billion pound British beauty industry. 👏👏👏 Fab to see all the kickass innovation and entrepreneurship the industry breeds as well as topics like sustainability taking centre stage 🙌🏿 📷 @coventgardenldn #londonbeautyweek #londonbeauty #beautyquarter #beautybiz #sustainablebeauty #consciousbeauty #wonderlustingbeauty

Small swaps I've made to be more earth-friendly with the less glam but essential bathroom essentials. Industrially grown cotton is one of the filthiest crops - 10% of all pesticide use and 25% of all insectide use is on cotton alone! The result is contaminated water supplies which sucks for the workers picking the cotton, wildlife, and our food chain 👎 .⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ @purasource cotton wool buds - 100% biodegradable with bamboo instead of single use plastic. Sturdy stems and the organic cotton is tightly wound so can use tidying up makeup. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ @hollandandbarret reusable organic cotton rounds for makeup removal. If using with toner, you'll need to wash a few time for them to become suitably absorbent. They're small enough to chuck in with wash so it's not like you're using extra electricity 😅⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ For unreusable tasks like taking off nail polish, I use organic cotton pads. ⁠ ⁠⠀ ⁠Do you use any of these? ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #wonderlustinbeauty #onesmallswap #obww19 #nosingl#sustainableliving #greenbeauty #ecoliving #singleuseplastic #ecofriendly #biodegradeable #reusereducerecycle

It's Organic September and Organic Beauty and Wellbeing Week this week with mission for everyone to make one small swap to organic. Every little change, voting with how we spend our money, makes a difference. ⁠ ⁠⠀ There'd be no organic anything if it wasn't for the farmers taking care of the land so THANK YOU to them! ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Certified organic isn't just about the individual fruit/vegetable/products, it's about the whole ecosystem, soil depletion, biodiversity, respect for nature and resources, fair wages and so much more. We've got to stop dissing Mother Nature because we're not going to win that battle! #byebyehumandinosaurs⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ⁠ ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #soilassociation #organicseptember #obww19 #onesmallswap #greenbeauty #cleanbeauty #herbfarmacy #herbfarm #calendula #echinacea #consciousbeauty #tbt #organicbeauty #organicskincare #sustainableliving #climatechange

TGIF. Why does a 4-day week feel so much longer? 🤔 I plan to savour every last millisecond left of summer plus get in touch with my inner farmer 🤷🏿‍♀️ I’m going to a pick your own for the first time! #prayformymani What are your weekend plans? ☀️💛☀️ #lifeisanadventure #lovelondon #timeforrosé

I 💚 the dreamy, graceful illustrations on these @elanskincarelondon bottles that make me pause and exhale each time I pick up them up. Nice to see something different. Just looking at them makes me want to take up ballet or recline elegantly on a chaise longue non? ⁠⠀ This indie, London-based range is "inspired by art, nourished by nature, rooted in science" - music to my ears. Pretty packaging aside, head over to to le blog to find out what I think about the Dream Hyaluronic Acid Booster and Wonder serum. And tips on what type, when and how I use Hyaluronic Acid. Do you use in your skincare routine?⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ <press sample>⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #wonderlustingbeauty #linkinbio #elanskincarelondon #naturalserum #hyaluronicacid #oiljunkie #indiebeauty #ethicalbeauty #skincareroutine #artisanskincare #madeinlondon #veganbeauty #glowingskin #dryskintips #ingredientsmatter ⁠#mironglass #dryskintips ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀

#Repost @beautyshortlist ・・・ On Monday 2 September, our 2020 Beauty & Health Awards will officially open for entries (marking 10 years of The @BeautyShortlist!) We're announcing all the US, UK and Australian judges next week. Joining us this year to put the products through their respective paces are these gorgeous women (the complete UK panel will also be announced next week). Honesty, expertise, ethics and objectivity are deep at the core of The Beauty Shortlist Awards and the judges have these qualities in spades! You cannot run credible awards without outstanding entries and a stellar completely unbiased judging panel. So, row by row, starting Top Left, we have @wonderlustinglynda @justinejenkins @mvthun21 then second row Katie Hill, founder @mygreenpod, yoga and natural beauty expert @dandelionwellbeing, and green beauty expert and zero waste supporter Ana at @anagoesgreen, bottom row eco expert Bryanna, who like Ana is a zero waste and big organic products supporter and the founder of The EcoLogical @bskye7, next up is Denise, founder of @wowbeaute and a fountain of good energy, and Holly, editor-in-chief of the excellent eco-parenting mag @naturalmummamag. For details on this year's awards (including all the new health, #CBD and beauty categories) just click on the bio link. We've had some enquiries this week from overseas brands and yes these awards are indeed global, attracting entries from 39 countries last year. We can't wait to start this year's beauty testing, and to all the 2020 entrants "good luck!!" (ENTRIES ARE OPEN NOW, CLOSING 8 NOVEMBER. AWARDS DAY is MONDAY 2 MARCH 2020) #beautyshortlistawards #beautyawards #beautynews #bbloggersuk #bestinbeauty2020 #beautyshortlistloves #naturalbeautyblogger #organiclifestyle #zerowaste #newbeautyproducts #testedlovedwon #NoSponsors #NoAds

A few newbies from @bybibeauty and a special offer. Love this range longtime for how affordable, accessible and effective their natural products are. They also try to be as sustainable as possible though it's an can-alway-do-better thing (for ALL of us). These came in innovative grass paper packaging which uses 1 litre of water per tonne compared to 3,000 litres with wood pulp!⁠ ⁠⠀ 💚 Blueberry booster oil - have used in blends but not used solo before. Studies show it absorbs blue (natch) light from digital devices *slathering on as she types and stares at screen*⁠⠀ 💚 Swipe Clean - an emulsifying oil cleanser. ⁠⠀ 💚Bakuchiol Booster - exciting new product, especially for sensitive skin Just 2 ingredients in this - the other is lovely squalene. Research show that bakuchiol is a gentler, natural alternative to retinol in terms of improving skin texture so good option for those who can't tolerate retinol. Also it is not Vitamin A based so safe for pregnant/breastfeeding to use. Under a tenner with the code below. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ SPECIAL OFFER ALERT:⁠⠀ Use 'LYNDA25' to save 25% on everything apart from gifts sets over at bybi.com. (*not an affiliate link just a fab offer for you lovely lot).⁠ Valid until 31 August. Search blog for reviews of my faves. Have you tried BYBI? ⁠. *presssample* . #Wonderlustingbeauty #wonderloving #bybibeauty #greenbeauty #plantbasedskincare #cleanbeauty ⁠#summersale #ethicalbeauty #grasspaper #sustainableliving #sustainablepackaging ⁠⠀
