Happy weekend, beauties! Today’s post is a follow up on my last iHerb haul, after so many of you seemed to enjoy that post. It had a tonne of visits and I had a lot of great response from my picks. Given that I was spending some more time on iHerb today, I figured, hey, why not just do a round two? If you want to check out my shopping cart directly, you can see the link here.

January 21, 2016 by 4 Comments

Spiritual Beauty – The Latest Trends in Natural Beauty
January 10, 2016 by 1 Comment
Spirituality: A slightly unorthodox topic for a wellness and natural beauty blog, no? But hear me out. We are all energy and within that energy comes power – and that, my dears, is related to quantum physics (have a read of Deepak Chopra’s Ageless Body Timeless Mind to get the drift of what I mean here). Energy can be maneuvered around the body, and used as a ways to heal the body; age related skin damage included. While we may {Read More}

Cover Up, Naturally! LPN’s Pick on the Best Natural Concealers
November 7, 2015 by 11 Comments
A few weeks ago I received an email from a LPN reader asking for help. Funnily enough, she was facing the same product conundrum I had been facing for a long time: what is the best natural under eye concealer?! As an NBB (natural beauty blogger), I’ve had my fair share of product trials – and when it has come to concealer, I have been hunting high and low for the most effective product (that’s not even all of them pictured {Read More}
How to De-stress Naturally – LPN’s Top 6 Stress Relief Tips
October 4, 2015 by 1 Comment
I’m not sure what it is, but with every autumn comes transitions. Transitions towards longer workdays, less sleep and maybe even more broad life changes. I also find that during this time of year we try “to do it all” – for me that might mean getting to my yoga classes, maintaining some form of a social life, avoiding the seasonal cold or working on LPN when I can find the time. Now don’t mistake this for complaining; I feel very {Read More}
LPN’s Gluten Free & Vegan Chia Energy Biscuits
September 4, 2015 by 1 Comment
This week I’ll be hoping on a 17 hour flight. I love to travel, but I don’t love airplane food and I don’t love what long haul flights do to my skin- that is, my unprepared skin. When I travel one of the most important parts of my packing is food for the flight (along side a series of oils, creams and travel-sized spritzers). Whether it’s snacks and full meals, I plan ahead to ensure that I’m feeling nourished and {Read More}

LPN’s April & May Faves: Natural Beauty Love
June 14, 2015 by 4 Comments
This might be considered cheating — but I slammed April & May faves into one post this month. Why? Well, because life has been a bit crazy as of late and I haven’t been able to update as frequently as I would like. Excuses aside, summer is coming and I can’t wait to have a bit more time to tell you about all the wonderful goodness I’ve come across over these last few months. In today’s post, I’ll focus on {Read More}

Ayurvedic Natural Beauty: An Introduction to PRATIMA Skincare
April 18, 2015 by 8 Comments
Ayurveda. It’s no new topic to the pages of LPN. You might have heard about it before here, here, here and here (among a few other posts). While I won’t re-hash what Ayurveda is, I’ll give you a beauty-focused description from none other than the Queen of Ayurvedic beauty herself, Pratima Raichur: “A holistic science over 5,000 years old carries which carries a profound body of knowledge for understanding ourselves within the laws of nature. According to Ayurveda, each individual and {Read More}
