Ok, don't kill me.. Just noticed you updated my name. Yay! But you have to also change the URL.. www.mommyneedspockets.blogspot.com sorry to be high maintenance! :)

I'm glad you did a update with everything you use. I am trying to do a similar "cleanse" in our house.. But also not trying to break the bank with it either.. That can be tough!

Good for you for taking this leap! I have used Bare for 7 years and will never use anything else for my foundation. They just released some killer pressed powder eyeshadows which is great because loose powder eyeshadoes (while pretty) are MESSY! That is the biggest complaint I have heard about mineral make up in general -- it is messy. I don't have this issue but I also don't use a ton and I guess I'm not crazy? LOL! I wear very light make up and I do admit if I have really bad breakout or under eye bags I use a concealer. Like a previous comment said, QVC has some great prices! I don't have Ulta or a Sephora near me so I got in the habit of ordering from QVC years ago before Bare was sold in Macy's & Nordys. Anyway, good luck!

Great post, I've been thinking of cleaning out all of our products around the house too and this definitely helps motivate me!

I have heard awesome things about Kiehl's line. I will have to try it now. I use Bare Minerals and just love all of it. I fall asleep without washing my face a lot these days and I don't feel bad about it!

I have been using Bare Minerals for approx. six years and love it. As all things, it has its downsides. When my skin is clear, it works great, but sometimes I need a little more coverage. It also seems to take a while to put on, but then again, I am impatient in the morning. I look forward to seeing what you end up using.

Oh, Heather, I totally relate-- we've been undergoing the switch here too gradually over the last couple of years. I know a lot of people rave about bare minerals, but my absolute favorite makeup brand is Tarte-- I especially love their mascara! You can find them on Sephora's site or their company's web page. :)

Good luck with everything!!! :)

2012-01-17T18:14:15.455-06:00

I can recommend "Method" for any cleaning products and esp. dishwasher tabs and laundry liquid for HE washers.

I also use pur as my make-up, due to better coverage. Haven't really looked into shampoo, lotions etc. so this is the most interesting part of your resolution..keep posting I love your blog!

Oh and I am another one of those "silent creeps" so far :)

2012-01-17T08:15:52.590-06:00

I use bare minerals and love it! It is pretty pricey but it lasts forever! I am Not sure if this is correct but i have heard the Johnson's Natural isnt really 'natural' and has the bAd chemicals in it. I may be wrong. California baby and burts bees are great for kiddos and safe, just pricey.

2012-01-16T17:57:09.124-06:00

I am in the middle of doing this very same thing!!! Bare Minerals is ahhhh-mazing, I have been using it for 9+ years and won't use anything else! The coverage is great it really blends away any imperfections and looks extremely natural. I have very fair skin w/ hyperpigmentation and broken capillaries and people tell me often that I have "beautiful skin" when really I have "beautiful make-up" : ) We are trying california baby calendula cream for my little guys eczema right now and I wanted to love it, but his rash is the same if not slightly worse : ( It smells wonderful, but thats not helping the skin issues..Go to ewg.org they list TONS of cosmetics/baby products etc...with a rating of 1-10 for toxicity etc.. as well as ingredient lists and more, super helpful I think. GOOD LUCK : )

2012-01-16T17:09:15.712-06:00

we are in the process of doing the same thing. I started with Olivia's stuff and use california baby or burts bees. However, I wanted to let you know she has a rash from the baby bees calming lotion. It took us a bit to figure out what was causing the rash since we also recently introduced solids but after laying off the BB lotion my husband used it on her again last night and the rash is back. So california baby only for us! Also I too had heard that all J&J products had harmful chemicals in them but I could be wrong. I switched my own shampoo and body wash to stuff at Whole foods but need to work on my makeup etc. Keep us posted on the good stuff you end up liking!

I have very sensitive skin due to lupus and I love bare essentials. Will you share more of what you found in Aveda products or what to look for. I have splurged on some items and won't if there is crap in them.

Also, watch anything byjohnson's i've read that there some bad stuff in all of it. Maybe try California baby.

Thanks for all your updates- sounds like you are well on your way to a "natural" household!

I've been reading your blog for a long time- before B came along- and I never comment.... just a creeper-ha

Anywho- I use pur minerals as my makeup and I love it. My mom uses Bare Minerals and loves that for her. I find pur has a heavier coverage than Bare- If you have an ULTA close to you- they carry both brands and you can compare.

Good luck!

2012-01-16T15:07:16.708-06:00

I've been using Bare Minerals for over 10 years and I love it! It is pricier but many of the colors will last you forever. I have bought a lot of kits on QVC b/c you get the most bang for your buck. Lots of colors and brushes for fraction of cost. They also have boutiques and sell at Ulta and Sephora and they will do your make up to figure out your shade.
