Trust us, we get it. The struggle to find a truly non-toxic deodorant that actually works is real – and a struggle so many of our customers (including our founder!) have faced. If you’re still having a hard time believing that natural deodorant can actually combat B.O., not sure what ingredients you’re actually applying to your pits, nervous about the potential detox phase, or worried about keeping your skin free from rashes + irritation, this post is for you. New to natural deodorant? Here’s what you need to know. INGREDIENTS REALLY DO MATTER First things first. If you’re new to...

Did you miss our first CBD post? If so, we *strongly* suggest you head over to this post to dive deeper into what CBD actually is, the reality of THC (the part of the plant that gives it its bad rap), how the extraction method actually makes a BIG difference and the real reasons why CBD has become so much more than just a beauty trend – but a truly transformative ingredient. Whether you’re still a bit skeptical or completely aboard the CBD bandwagon, we want to give you the inside scoop on why this hemp-derived oil has reached an...

Something you should know about me — I love a fresh start. I’m the freak who actually sort of likes Mondays + their “new week” energy (shhh, don’t tell my coworkers), and my favorite thing in the world is the first page of a blank journal. Soooo it may not be surprising that I am obsessed with kicking off a new year and savoring all of its energy. Each passing year provides a natural time to reflect, take inventory, and set intentions for what is to come. Entering 2020 felt especially vivid + reflective as it was not only a...

Believe it or not, for about a week this past year I was a mom of 2 babies under the age of 1 – seriously. While it’s been touch and go at times, I’m proud to say that I have survived thus far and am eager to share with you what’s helped to maintain my sanity and how I’ve managed to hold onto the last pieces of “me” by incorporating intentional moments of self-care. Buckle up! MOMENTS OF “ME” TIME My first and most important tip: BE SELFISH. Okay, maybe not completely selfish, but allow yourself to have selfish moments...

We’ve curated personalized collections to take the stress out of holiday shopping – from the mama, the man, the teen and everyone in between, we’ve hand-picked PP products to promote health + wellness for those you love. ‘Tis the season to stock up on products you trust – and give the gift of truly non-toxic products to the ones you love most. ATHLETE COLLECTION For the person in...

“Busy” has become an all too familiar word in our modern-day world – and often that means our skincare + self-care routines are one of the first things to get forgotten and fly out the window. How many nights have you just wanted to fall into bed without washing your face? Yeah, we feel you. But friends, let’s not allow “busy” to steal from our much-needed skincare and self-care routines, okay? We’re here to help you make self-care a priority even in the midst of “busy” and provide tips that support a regular rhythm for your skincare routine – in...

It’s that time of year! While Naughty and Nice Lists might be made by a big man in a red suit, we felt the need to make our own list. This holiday season, we want to help you to clean up your gift-giving, get safe + effective skincare into the hands of those you care about and reclaim your health by swapping out dangerous, hormone-disrupting products for ones that won’t compromise your wellness, but will powerfully support it. Because the consequences of this Naughty List are a bit more serious than simply getting coal in your stocking. Research shows that...

I totally get it, figuring out your skin type can be tough – especially with the state of your skin ever-evolving and changing with seasons, stress and lifestyle shifts. And it can be even tougher to navigate the world of natural beauty and know which products and practices and routines are best for your skin. Our team works so hard to provide suggestions + solutions for every customer request, but it can be tricky to put together a personalized plan of action without seeing your skin in person or understanding what’s happening beneath the surface. I wish you could all...

We have a new beauty trend you need to try! And here’s why. Skin is always evolving and ever-changing (even on the same complexion), combination skin is more common than you may think and having a couple different conditions you want to focus on is completely normal. Skin is beautiful and diverse and really does require individual care, which is why we always say we don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all philosophy when it comes to skincare – and why we’ve become obsessed with this beauty trend: MULTI-MASKING. Sure you can use one mask for the entire face (we do it...

PSA: Masks aren’t just for slumber parties or spa days anymore. They aren’t just fluffy time fillers in facial treatments or for those occasional “treat yo’ self” moments. The right mask really does make a significant difference in the state of your skin – visibly improving the texture, clarity, hydration and overall health of your complexion. Don’t believe us? Keep reading because we’re spilling why you want to make masks a part of your regular skincare routine. CLARIFY + DETOXIFY Where are our oil-rich, acne-prone complexions at? While clogged pores, blackheads and oil blotting sheets may have become your norm,...

We can’t stress enough how essential lymphatic drainage is for a clear, healthy, balanced complexion. The lymphatic system is the body’s natural cleansing + filtering system and is responsible for removing waste + harmful substances, recycling nutrients back into the bloodstream, sustaining healthy cells + immunity and maintaining homeostasis within the body. But when this system is blocked or when lymph fluid becomes stagnant, it causes toxic buildup in tissues – which can lead to not only acne, congestion and other inflammatory skin conditions but also illness and disease within the body. Clearly, the lymphatic flow has a bit part...

What does your stomach have to do with your skin? You may have heard about gut health and how important it is but still don’t really see the point. After all, you might not have digestive issues or stomach aches – what you really care about is your skin. It might surprise you then that food intolerances are a big cause of acne and skin health. The root cause of food intolerances are digestive imbalances (mostly in your Gastro-Intestinal Tract aka GUT), toxins, and stress. Removing food intolerances from your diet is a great first step to healthy skin, but...

You guys, I’m really excited to dive into the exact steps I do on a daily basis to care for my skin and share some behind-the-scenes skincare tips straight from my bathroom. But I do need to lay a blanket statement before we begin. This is my personal skincare routine for my unique skin + self-care needs and may not suit every skin state. It can (and should!) vary from person to person, but I hope that as I explain the exact steps I incorporate into my am/pm skincare routine it will spark some fresh perspectives for how you can...

With the demands of daily life and the hustle our culture has come to praise, it’s all too easy to become distracted and disconnected from ourselves, our hearts and how we want to live. Have you ever felt like you’re floating (but fast) through life, just going through the motions or operating on autopilot? Sweet friend, I’m right there with you. If we’re not intentional about taking time to get grounded, living from that place can easily (and quickly) take a toll on our mental health. Getting into the practice of establishing daily and weekly habits to help cultivate mental...

Deodorant is something we talk a lot over here at PP. Why? Because this one little tube actually plays a BIG part in your health. Don’t believe me? Keep on scrolling down. If you’ve landed on this post, I’m going to just go ahead and assume that either: you’re already on the non-toxic deodorant train and fully get why it’s so important to make the swap OR you’re investigating this new, natural approach to supposedly combat BO, but are trying to gather all the reasons why your Old Spice or Secret will still suit just fine. If you’re in the...

We are told that true beauty lies within… Well, this time it quite literally means just that! The health of our skin always begins with the state of our internal health. Being a Holistic Health Coach, using food as medicine has been a huge focus in my life for the past 5 years. It was about 4 years ago that I learned about the incredible healing and nourishing powers of Bone Broth. So much so that it was one of the very first foods that I gave to both of my children to help nourish their sweet little bodies day...

Gather around friends, and let me tell you the tale of the little gua sha stone that could. What could it do? Well, I’m so happy that you asked! For the past 3 weeks, I’ve used this gem of a stone (pun intended) every day and it has come to my rescue in countless ways – making me a true believer in its abilities to totally cure my morning facial bloat. So, if you’re into the idea of being able to consume copious amounts of cheese (raw and grass-fed, of course) without the dreaded repercussions, you’ve come to the right...
