I want to share a little story with you—something that changed my path forever.
For 20 years, I worked as a makeup artist.
It was a dream job in many ways—creative, dynamic, and full of excitement. One day, whilst teaching fashion makeup at one of London’s top makeup schools, a student asked me, “What brands do you use in your kit? What should I buy to get started?”
Simple question, right? But in that moment, I froze.
I realised I couldn’t honestly recommend the products I was using. Sure, they were great for the job—long-lasting and perfect for big shoots under intense lights. But… they weren’t what I would use on myself. ?
?And that didn’t sit well with me.
That moment changed everything. I knew I had to align my work with how I had always lived my life—consciously, healthfully, and authentically. ?? Since that day, over ten years ago, I switched paths and trained as a health coach. And honestly, I’ve never been happier.
Why Go Toxic-Free? ????
Many mainstream products are loaded with chemicals that can irritate your skin and even enter your body. Toxic-free products are kinder to our health and gentler on the earth too. Win-win!
Being toxic-free is just one piece of the puzzle. To truly live well, it’s important to stay aligned with your authentic self.
For me, it’s listening to my inner voice. It’s about making decisions—big or small—that reflect who I am, and showing up authentically.???
?When we follow our authentic selves, life feels lighter, clearer, and more fulfilling. It gives us the ability to live with purpose, confidence, and joy. ??
What does your authentic self look like? Maybe it’s making small changes to align your choices with what’s important to you. Maybe it’s something bigger. Whatever it looks like for you, I promise—it’s always worth taking time to connect with it.
Here’s to choosing what’s good for you, inside and out, and living a life that reflects who you truly are. ??

To your health,
