not only do we need to re-vamp our economic system, we need to live with less. less everything, really. (That doesn't mean watching Marie Kondo and throwing everything in the garbage!!! ๐ฌ)
โ โ โ โ โ โ โ โ โ
don't get me wrong: I love clean beauty and support good brands. money still votes and it is important that if you're going to spend money, you do on brands that are doing better (more sustainable/ethical!) but my moral compass is telling me that I need to change it up, so here we are. โ โ โ โ โ โ โ โ โ
this post is to say that I'm switching to focus [more] on a sustainable lifestyle and [much] less on beauty. โ โ โ โ โ โ โ โ โ
