5 facial products to save from your Marie Kondo-ing

Ok, I have to admit that my headline is a bit misleading here as I haven't actually done any Marie Kondo-ing in my own household. The idea of narrowing down my over crowded beauty products bin simply does not bring me joy. But, if I was to be a good little organizer, these are the five face products (all purchased locally) that bring me joy day in and day out, and would absolutely be worth saving from any theoretical cleanse.

CBD massages are the latest way to tap into the cannabidiol craze

When my mom started talking about trying CBD for pain relief, that was about the time I realized this trend had officially gone mainstream. Cannabidiol, or CBD, is a compound found in the cannabis plant, and has been shown in studies to work as an anti-inflammatory—but without that pesky psychoactive effect (or high) of THC.

Everything you need to know about getting a DevaCut in D.C.

If you have curly hair, you have probably dealt with the feeling of regret that follows a haircut. Your ringlets are suddenly too short, too frizzy, uneven, or they just don’t look or feel right. It can take weeks or months to feel like your hair is back to its true self. As a result, you put off getting your haircut as long as humanly possible. I’ve been there, and so have almost all of us fellow curly-haired gals. Thankfully, it doesn’t have to be that way.

When I first started exploring the world of clean beauty in the mid-2000s, the category was relegated to a single aisle in health food stores.
