So, I’ve kinda sorta embarked on this quest of an “all-natural” lifestyle.  No! This does NOT mean I’m taking out my weave.  And, yes!  I will continue to use bleach to clean everything.  But anyway, on my quest, I have found tons of helpful websites that provide information on “clean foods”; organic this, pure that, unprocessed this, unpasteurized that and, with each stroke of  my keyboard, I’m marking this and that off my “can eat” list and, I’m in my car, heading back to WholeFoods or Trader Joe’s.  FYI – this quest is not cheap.

This morning I read an article on all-natural skin care, wanted to try it and, decided to spend the rest of my 401K at WholeFoods.  For my face, I bought some organic, unpasteurized honey from “rescued bees”, organic, unfiltered apple cider vinegar (supposed to be a great toner) and organic, raw coconut oil (I am not a fan of coconut but, I hear it does wonders so…).

Here is my first honey mask:

* You can’t really tell I have anything on my face but, I promise it’s there =) *

I followed it up with the apple cider vinegar and coconut oil.  Thankfully, the coconut oil isn’t too coconut-y and my skin feels “supple like a lady” (PLEASE have gotten that movie quote.).

As I journey further down this clean path, I will provide honest (I had 3 blueberry muffins today) updates and I hope that something I say/admit provokes a change for the better. =)
