  • Yes I did it again. I was planning to grow it long, but things changed. I blame it on being a busy mom, but I've been eyeing this cut for a few years now. All the details on how I cut my own hair in a very simple way is up on Minimalist Beauty... Linen dress by @cottoncandy_by_romana #curlyhair #naturalhair #curlybob #linenlover #linendress

  • The first thing that dressing modestly does is free you from any and every body issue you may have had in the past. Today on the blog I'm sharing my modesty journey and how this spiritual conviction has been so freeing in many areas of my life. Now mind you, in the beginning I felt CRAZY. Thank God that part's over though. 🕊 Vintage linen dress @shopflax
  • Finally PLASTIC-FREE Packaging... 🕊When I first started my organic skin care line @iamazuha, I reused packaging materials instead of purchasing specific items to create less waste for my customers. I even reused left over plastic bubble wrap my husband had gotten from a moving neighbor. 🕊To make my company more sustainable, I'm now using as little plastic materials as possible. The AZUHA Red Raspberry Skin Elixir is already packaged in a recyclable and reusable glass bottle, and now will be wrapped in a beautiful high quality burlap bag with tissue paper instead of plastic bubble wrap. Although I'm still sealing the bottle with a plastic based tape, there may be a way to use a more environmentally sound material with that in the future as well. I've already been using paper tape and of course a recyclable box for shipping, yet look forward to creating even more environmental choices down the road. 💞Dawn Michelle
  • Happy Sunday Beauties! Opening my heart 💞and sharing a few updates on the blog. How's everything going with you? 🕊 Linen @knockknocklinen
  • The reason why you haven't seen a Fall/Winter 2018 Capsule Wardrobe from me is because I decided to buy only linen garments and eliminate all synthetic fabrics. . . . Linen is considered to be the world's strongest natural fiber. Pure 100% linen which is made from flax is... ▪️30% stronger than cotton keeps you cool in the summer and if layered unexpectedly warm in the winter ▪️hypoallergenic ▪️very breathable ▪️absorbs moisture easily and dries quickly ▪️uses less water and chemicals to manufacture ▪️gets softer with each wash ▪️very comfortable ▪️lasts 2-3 decades versus cotton lasting only 3-5 years . . . Although linen is the most environmentally friendly fabric out of the bunch in my opinion, this isn't the only reason I've decided to do this. It's the healing benefits of linen that's got me sold plus a few other reasons that I couldn't ignore. . . . Read more on minimalistbeauty.com! #capsulewardrobe #minimalistbeauty
  • 🕊 Sometimes you just have to indulge in something insanely delicious to remind yourself that everything is all good. This Açai Superfoods Bowl from @cafegratitude was the something I needed. 🕊 The selfless service that some of you mothers spoke of when I had my son has been weighing on me. I'm sure all mothers feel it differently. The whole point though is "selfless" service. I'm so grateful to learn how to fully serve another. Being stretched isn't always a great feeling, but it always has incredible pay off. 🕊 #minimalistbeautyeats
  • I've boasted the benefits of using henna for years on Minimalist Beauty. If you're going to color you hair, I believe that using organic henna is the BEST way to go. The damage I've experienced using traditional hair color in the past just isn't worth it. 🍂🍃🍂 Unlike traditional hair color full of toxic chemicals, organic henna strengthens your hair, and adds radiant shine while conditioning it. 🍂🍃🍂 Recently I shared 5 Tips For Coloring Hair Naturally With Henna on the @mountainroseherbs blog plus My Two Favorite Henna Recipes (one with henna + conditioning herbs and the other with henna + indigo). There are detailed instructions on how to use both recipes. Read more on minimalistbeauty.com! 🍂🍃🍂 #henna #naturalhair #naturalhaircolor #minimalistbeauty #mountainroseherbs
