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}

Today I have a very special LPN interview with an absolutely incredible natural beauty: Megan Cannon.

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.

One of my all time favourite skincare lines is back with something FABULOUS. Annmarie Gianni is up to it again – creating beautiful things in skincare… but this time, it’s makeup.
