Sayonara Single-Use! Leaf Shave is Making Sustainable Shaving Easy
Because disposable razors and their replacement cartridges are made out of multiple materials, they're not recyclable outside of a few specialized programs. This means that the replacement cartridges used by some 160 million Americans as of 2019 will make their way into land fills this year. Leaf Shave will not only save me money, but also guarantees that I'll never contribute to that pollution ever again.

Dolla Dolla Bill Y’all: Vegan Black Friday Sales
In recent years, especially since becoming vegan, I’ve tried to limit my consumerism to some degree. However, the only thing I hunt is bargains and a sale is a sale (is a sale).

Their success has attracted would-be competition, with Quaker Oats announcing the launch of their own oat milk scheduled for January 2019.

Get Some Pumpkin in Your Life!
‘Tis the Season. THE SEASON FOR PUMPKIN! *cue demonic laughter* While I am not, and never have been, a PSL devotee (tho I hear they’re making vegan ones now), I am a huge fan of pumpkin. In part because from stem to seed – and everything in between – it’s so dang good for you! Pumpkin can help you: Lose Weight & Lower Blood Sugar: the high fiber content in low-calorie pumpkin helps your body absorb sugar slower and keeps you feeling full longer – which means less snacking! Most Americans average just 15g of fiber a day, which is barely half of the recommended levels of 25-30g a day.…
I Quit Washing My Face (and My Skin Looks Better Than Ever)
Oily skin isn't tough-as-leather skin. It's can actually be quite sensitive, even if it is thicker than other skin types. And it often overproduces oil because it's out of balance due to LACK of moisture - NOT because it needs to be 'dried out'.
