While shopping for little Evan, the newest addition to my orGLAMic extended family, I came across Little Twig bath products. This reasonably priced line of bath care includes shampoo, baby wash, baby oil, baby powder, and much more.

Always on the lookout for vegan-friendly shoe options, I was thrilled to come across Mink. While the market has been expanding (check out orGLAMic’s previous post on Natalie Portman’s line for Te Casan) this orGLAMic girl has had a hard time finding leather-free shoes that I love. Call me crazy, but it’s either flip-flops or [...]

One aspect of my life that I have been slow to ‘greenify’ is my nail polish. I can’t help it, I am hopelessly addicted to Ballet Slipper, Sugar Daddy, Mademoiselle, Limo-scene, and would be happy to describe all the differences to you in depth. Lucky for me, SpaRitual was giving free manicures at the Gorgeously [...]

This new line features 100% certified organic Argan Oil, an ingredient that comes from the nut of the Argan Tree’s fruit and is found only in [...]
