    If you have been following me via this blog or my Instagram page for awhile, you know this – I am ALL about vegan, cruelty-free, organic skincare (bonus if it’s skincare created by a woman!).  When a product or brand hits all of those notes and DELIVERS, I feel compelled to tell you about it.

    As a skincare obsessed individual, I am very picky about what I incorporate into my daily routine.

    I was approached on Instagram (stay in the loop here: @blonderambitions) by @savorbeauty to try their products.

    Before I ever promote a product to BA Readers, I test the product out myself + I never recommend products that don’t meet my very specific standards.

    To jump to the bottom line: I am deeply impressed with Savor Beauty’s ingredients, process, + the countertop worthy containers and branding.

    Let’s dive into three of my favorites… (more…)

    THE BEAUTY TOOL OF 2018

    Most of you are aware… but for those of you who aren’t regulars on this site… I am a skincare addict.

    I have tons of tips, tricks, + favorite products… but the FIRST STEP in my routine (and the step that I swear by for a steady glow) is this device.

    I have had early access to the device for months now… finally it’s not just exclusive to influencers + insiders.

    Drumroll please… it became available to the public TODAY!

    I always want you to have current information on the technology available to you (especially natural technology that doesn’t involve injections or fillers).

    This is as current as you can get.

    I use this rad device.

    What does it do?

  • THE SKIN YOU’RE IN

    THE SKIN YOU’RE IN

    Welcome to Winter: Hot chocolate.  The holidays.  Time with your loved ones.  And… dry skin.

    As I’ve gotten older and (I’d like to think) wiser, I’ve learned to take care of my skin… and I want to share my routine with you.

    I have worked out a skincare deal just in time for the holidays for Blonder Ambitions readers (I appreciate you so!).  Continue reading and find your holiday code at the bottom.

    mud-mask
    Once a week, I spend one hour “masking.”  I combine three different masks. I’ve found that this combination gets rid of dry winter skin, diminishes blackheads and pore size, and fades wrinkles (it’s amazing how important the concept of “anti-aging” becomes when you hit 31… tip to the younger ladies: start your anti-aging routine now… your skin will thank you later).

    Step 1 in my skin routine: I use a Glacial Marine Mud Mask to draw impurities and toxins out of the skin.

    Ready for some science? The basic molecular structure of this mask is negatively charged.  The positive ions that naturally occur in the mud and positively charged impurities bind to the mud’s negative charge and can then be rinsed away.

    In basic language? This mask draws out all of the bad stuff.  What does that mean for you? Less breakouts. Fewer blackheads. Smaller pores.

    Onto Step 2…
