Hi Megan,
I’d love to hear how and why you use some of your beauty products, especially the argan oil!
Great website!
Hi Hez! I used the Argan oil as a moisturizer, mostly for my face and neck. Lately, I’ve actually been washing my face with olive oil or coconut oil, which acts as a built-in moisturizer, too. It’s great for the whole body!
Ditto to Hez’z comment! I was also wondering about your haircare, because your hair is so pretty and shiny looking!
Is a dry brush the best type of brush to use on your hair? If yes, why?
You use it on your skin, actually! It helps remove dead skin cells and improve your circulation.
Hi Megan! I love your site! It’s the perfect helper as I transition my family to Primal/Paleo. I wondered how exactly you wash your face with oils? Do you put it on wet skin and then just dry your face with a towel or do you use a secondary product to remove the extra olive oil?
Also, how well does the Josie Maran foundation do for covering up?
Thanks!
This is the basic method I use for oil-washing: http://www.mommypotamus.com/oil-cleansing-for-clear-baby-soft-skin-video-tutorial/ (I don’t mix oils, though, just use olive oil and a steaming hot wash cloth)
I found the Josie Maran foundation to be pretty good at evening-out my skin tone. If I need something “covered up” I usually use RMS Beauty’s Un Cover-Up, which works great as a concealer!
I have heard quite a bit about using Argan oil as a moisturizer but I must admit I was very surprised to see you are using coconut oil to wash your face! How do you use it, how often and what improvement have you noticed in your skin since using it please?
I use olive oil or coconut oil to wash my face every night! You can look up the “Oil Cleansing Method” for the technique. I love how my skin looks and feels since making the switch, so I’ll never use facial soaps again!
Do you have any recommendations for daily facial sunscreen? I am having a really hard time finding any that don’t have a mile long ingredient list! Thanks
Josie Maran has a SPF 40 facial sunscreen that is awesome. It contains argan oil too. I’ve been using it for a couple of years and I love it! You can buy it at Sephora.
I have over 40 dry-ish sensitive skin and use coconut oil with a bit of baking soda to cleanse. It exfoliates without irritating and my skin looks great.
