your life as beauty from the inside out

Everything doesn’t effect everyone the same way.

Everything doesn’t effect everyone the same way. So this story today is based on my experiences. With that said, let me to do what I do and be 100% transparent. I recently realized I had an inordinate affection for clothing. This revelation showed me clothing was getting in the way with my walk with God. So I took my wardrobe off its pedestal. 🍃
I was thinking about why clothing was so consuming for me. It all came down to 14 years as a professional dancer, 12 of them in Hollywood. Nothing can be as tormenting to how you think than being in the Hollywood entertainment business. Being type casted constantly had a lot to do with it. Years of enduring this and other aspects of Hollywood creates vanity both from insecurity and false confidence. Read more on Minimalist Beauty. 🍃 #capsulewardrobe #minimalistbeauty

Psalm 24:1-5 🕊 The earth is the Lord’s, and all fullness, The world and those who dwell therein. For He has founded it upon the seas, And established it upon the waters. Who may ascend into the hill of the Lord? Or who may stand in His holy place? He who has clean hands and a pure heart, Who has not lifted up his soul to an idol, Nor sworn deceitfully. He shall receive blessing from the Lord, And righteousness from the God of his salvation. 🕊#minimalistbeauty

And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things. 🕊

My favorite multi-purpose beauty oil high in linol

My favorite multi-purpose beauty oil high in linoleic acid is organic safflower oil from @mountainroseherbs which is abundant in vitamin E with anti-inflammatory properties. Organic safflower oil has become my favorite oil for oil cleansing, body lotion, and for my hair which makes this oil perfect when traveling and packing light.
🌸

Ever since learning how the composition of carrier oils can effect acne prone skin, I realigned my personal skin care and beauty regime to follow my findings. If you haven’t read Oils Specifically for Acne Prone Skin, then please do. The science behind this information has been a game changer for me and many others. As a result I haven’t had any breakouts like I used to. I shared my six year update of using oils high in linoleic acid a little while back.

I don't usually get this excited about anything I've baked, but it's hard to find gluten-free, dairy-free, and sugar-free recipes that actually taste great.
🕊

I worked on this gluten-free, dairy-free, and sugar-free banana bread recipe for months before settling on this recipe. I would make a batch every week on Friday afternoon so it would be ready for breakfast Saturday morning. Then after one batch I knew I had modified my recipe to an exact science. 🕊

You can find this recipe on Minimalist Beauty. If you try this, I hope you enjoy it as much as my family does! (FYI... I haven't forgotten about the article on fermenting grains and legumes. I just figured this would be fun in the meantime. Also check out my 10 year anniversary blog for Minimalist Beauty. So much has happened over the years and I hope that you have been blessed in some way from me sharing my journey. Happy 2020!) 💞Dawn Michelle
