These days we’re all putting more thought into the products we consume. We not only want to love how we look, we want to ensure that the cosmetics we use are good for us, the planet and all other living things! Cruelty-free makeup was once relegated to one tiny aisle in our local health food stores. Now, ethical beauty brands are blowing up all over the place and they’re offering a range of products that resonate way beyond the patchouli and kale crowd! These days, vegan beauty brands are easier to find than ever. Not sure where to start? We can help!

A Pride message from #studiofam member + constant innovator @naezrahlooks
: "Happy Pride Month to all my LGBTQIA+
babies! Remember that you are valid, your feelings are valid and you matter !!! especially my black and POC babies, YOU MATTER!! This BLM movement includes you never forget that. The LGBTQIA+ community was one of the very first communities to welcome my art and myself into their arms. Trans women and drag queens were also the blueprint for the way I do my makeup. They’ve taught me ways to make my features 'soft and feminine' as my features are not seen as such especially being dark skin. They’re also the blueprint for makeup period down to the way you bake and contour so put some respect on their names." – the details:

View this post on InstagramCelebrations, rituals, holidays and traditions. These are some of the ways that we come to truly know and understand our communities, our families and even ourselves. The act of gathering and celebrating with those we love is so essentially human that, when it's not an option, we feel its importance all the more. This Eid al-Fitr is different than any we've experienced before, and the inability to see and interact with the people we love most is difficult…to say the least. We hope that you still have a great time, whether it's over video chat or in small groups. And if you want to send your favorite people some extra love, we recommend kicking off the end of Ramadan with some of our juiciest, sweetest scents like Avobath Bath Bomb, Scrubee Body Butter and Let The Good Times Roll Face And Body Cleanser to really kick off Eid al-Fitr right. Or wind down this hectic period with soothing scents like lavender and tonka in bestsellers like Sleepy Body Lotion. However you're celebrating Eid al-Fitr this year, we hope you're safe, happy and healthy.
