I stopped wearing makeup about 10 years ago and have never regretted it. I also do not color my hair or use any type of body products, i.e. lotions, creams, etc. I found that if I drink enough water, daily, (10 cups for me spaced out 1 cup every hour for 10 hours), my skin is soft and supple and dewy. The water has also improved my health tremendously. I'm 58 and unlike my cousins, sisters, and friends of a similar age, my hair has not turned gray, its still dark brown. I'd also like to add that when you downsize and get rid of the things you really don't need, your mind feels clearer and you feel happier. Thank you for another great video.
Lol. Where I live you need lotion along with water. Not everyone lives in the north and not everyone has oily skin. Food only helps so much. Come on now, not everyone is the same, neither is our skin.
i'm 14 and all of my friends have started to wear some type of makeup, and at this point i think i'm pretty much the only one who hasn't. I just find makeup very uncomfortable on my skin, it itches, its bad for my skin and i don't think it makes me any more beautiful. I think being natural is very important and just being yourself. I definitely don't use any hair products like hair gel or hairspray either. I'm a dancer and when you do dance shows you are pressured into wearing a ton of makeup, their is so much hairspray in the dressing rooms you can barely see anything and its just bad for your health in general. So i use the bare minimum of makeup and hair gel when i do dance shows. Your videos are very important to me, and very inspiring. Thank you so much💗
I gave up all those things also. I tried olive oil on my face and it broke out badly. I didn't give up, and have found that sunflower oil is amazing on my skin. I'm so happy to give up lotions - almost all of them were causing eczema breakouts.
Ive been on a similar journey and it has been amazing. It is crazy how much stuff i used to think i needed. Ive cut down hardcore and now i have a space that is easy to maintain, more money, and i feel a million times better. Spending less money to feel better and not ruin the planet? Win/win
Thankyou for reinforcing what I already believe in. I too don't buy nailpolishes, body products, perfumes, trinkets, makeup palletes etc. Sometimes due to the attractive packaging and constant advertising, I do succumb to buying stuff I don't need but that doesn't happen often. Also, I have a few essentials that I have had for very long or keep buying, and I take absolute relish in the fact that I get a lot of use out of them.
So happy to hear that! ☺️ yes, that used to happen to me too! they are so good at making beauty products look enticing and fun, but now I try my best to see if I can make it myself first! Il
I don’t buy perfume either. Allergic. I like essential oils but it turned out to be a bad idea too. I love olive oil! Coconut oil and olive oil. I had so many beauty and body care products. Today, my hubby has more products than I have. 😄😄😄 I started to cut my own hair many years ago because the hairdressers always cut my hair too short. My hair is about your length. I don’t like it shorter. I did my own nails too. Had fake nails for years. My real nails are still in recovery. Talk about paper thin. There’s a really good tv-show on HBO about all the toxic in beauty products. That’s scary. Great video! 👍👍👍🌹💗
Yes, I think I have seen that one! There is one really good on Netflix too. My nails completely healed when I started eating a lot of dark kale, so maybe that will help? Thank you :D 💗
@@SagaJohanna They are much better now. Been free from fake nails for two years I think. And also from any other chemicals on my nails. The only thing going on my nails is coconut or olive oil.
I used to buy soo many perfumes, was literally obsessed with my bottles, until the day i got corona and my smelling changed a bit. They're all stinky to me now and give me headaches. Not mentioning that my current boyfriend says he hates perumes and loves how i smell naturally.
3:10 If you want a substitution for sunscreen that comes in plastic bottles, you can just wear a sun hat/fishing hat, and UV arm sleeves when you're outside :)
Fantastic video and very inspiring. The beauty industry has got worse with making us want to buy their latest products which make silly claims as to what they can do. If they really worked people wouldn't use Botox or have plastic surgery!
Thank you for sharing this video. I’m on my beginning journey to become an eco-friendly sustainable minimalist, as well. And this video helped me to give some ideas.
It's a really interesting topic, I should try to reduce the body prodicts and I also wanna start to take care of my skin without spending a ton of euros and being sustainable, great video.
It is said consuming wheatgrass will provide natural sun protection- I was really into it for one jar and then it changed and I couldn’t stand the new taste! I will love to try to grow my own after my big move. Good vid.
hej hej Johanna, I shifted my 2 girls & I into a minimalist lifestyle pre-19. I'd say the biggest overlooked is toilet paper & how pampered the world believes they are. The bidet has the superiority we should all embrace. In 2022, it was estimated "the world uses 42 million tons of toilet paper every year" That's sick! The other minimalist approach I've found is using bits of cardboard or other food related boxes to clean dishes, also starting the process of breakdown making it ready for the compost pile -instead of sponges or those scrubbers... Not to mention the excess of manufacturing, packaging, shipping, personal expenses including petrol & tax when purchased these products. Your channels thrive with positive vibrations giving hope that your vast number of follows can become deeply involved with turning our world right side up instead the direction presently headed, please keep up the great work. We aplaud you again for your public awareness of things like perfumes & the Diva Cup. You encourage even the most motivational of us to try even harder. If you would like to connect I'm Doctr Detroit. Yes, spelled like that. Living in New Zealand 11 years after a period of working as a Robotic Engineer in America and Japan, now a Chiropractor. There are some Swedish people here, great outdoor music festivals and a minimalist lifestyle you and your partner would enjoy. Sincerely, Michael
Love this! I can completely relate to the whole having large palettes while traveling to china issue! I used to have so many palettes and I wanted to take them with me every time I traveled and now i have realized...as beautiful as they are, they take up way too much space in my luggage. I have since then let go of having so many palettes : )
Glad I watched this one. The first thing that appealed to me about the channel was your air of authenticity (I dislike the whole glamour thing and the fact that a small number of people get insanely rich through promoting it, not to mention torturing animals in the process) and this confirms my first impression. And on the subject of perfume, I do like to point out to people that chemical 'air fresheners' don't actually freshen the air. They pollute it.
I totally agree and use similar natural products. I do use castor oil for my skin and hair too. I make my own lip balm with shea, coconut oil and beeswax and sunblock with coconut, raspberry seed, and carrot seed oils, shea butter and zinc oxide. Works really well!
Oh I've tried making lip balm but it ended up too firm to use! I'll have to get back into trying because it's one of those things I just keep buying because it runs out so fast - especially in winter!
I started minimalism a few years ago. I made a move from the stars the the Caribbean and I panicked bought a bunch of clothes, beauty products and kitchen stuff. Since we weren’t going to work overseas and live of rent from our apartments we weren’t going to buy anything. Plus I wasn’t going to find anything I use over there. Now I don’t know how to get rid of all of the f these things. I gave away hundreds of clothing items to people in need there. But I have an excess of natural hair products and skincare products that I feel bad tossing and people won’t use them here. Abu idea how to go about that. I miss my less stress routines.
Wow I am so interested in the Caribbean, how do you like it there? I have a few friends from there and my French used to be pretty good so I’ve always been interested in moving there! I replied to your other comment but yes definitely more difficult in a foreign country. I had the same issue living in China but I connected with an expat who had lived there for a long time and spoke Chinese and she took my items and gave them to people!
I gave up on nail polish a while ago. It only looks good for a day or two. The shellacs killed my nails and made them hurt. My nails are actually rather nice looking, so why do I need to cover them up?
what do you use on your body besides shower gel? natural soap? and as intimate hygiene? And, most important For me, how do you solve the problem of electrified hair, baby hair in the front? they are unsightly... I get extremely stressed because of them. Is there any solution for babyhair??? my hair is fine and greasy at the root. Thank you very much! (You are so beautiful…! 🙃)
super video! what would interest me: do you not have the urge to try or buy new cosmetic products from time to time? Or do you not want to treat yourself from time to time? do you have any tips on how to deal with the urge to buy?
Thank you!! Yes absolutely. I’ve made sure to unsubscribe from all channels/emails/social media that tempt me to buy stuff! And I treat myself to experiences instead. Like a trip away feels much better to treat myself with, or even a spa experience! But will definitely make a video on this 🥰
Its crazy when yuo realise how little you actually need! Do you have a natural shampoo and conditioner you could recommend? And deodorant? Thanks for the cute video :)
This was so interesting! I have a question about how you remove the zinc sunscreen. I have noticed that it's difficult to remove fully. Any information you can provide, I'd appreciate it. Thanks!
Thank you! Yes sure! I put face oil on my skin, normally just olive oil, and then I use a cotton face cloth with warm water and gently wipe it off. Using oil is the only way to get it off haha :D
@@SagaJohanna thank you for replying. I currently use a cleansing oil from Purito, but it's in a plastic bottle, and I want to use less plastic when possible. Have a wonderful day!
So many interesting ideas! The only thing I'll disagree with is no more haircuts from professionals. The environmental impact is almost the same at home and at the saloon and what you're paying is the expertise of someone who knows how to make your face look beautiful and enhance your features, especially for us curly-haired girls. Furthermore idk what saloon you go to girl but i have a lady cutting mine for 20€, no styling or drying. She comes to my house and I just take a shower before she arrives. I feel like it can build such a strong bond in the neighborhood community! And you support your local women. Same with henna, the only colouring i get done on my hair to protect it. Another lady from the neighborhood does it. 😂
Actually your picture of haircuts here is very nice. Supporting women and your local community 🙌 With my partners needs and my own, it's easy to save money doing what we're doing, especially because haircuts in Australasia are apparently expensive! 🤣 But, where you're coming from and what you're saying is very important 😃
So what happened to me with the "nail polish" is that .....I was also a nail polish junkie... buying all the different nail polishes, doing my nails for like 4 hrs....and now I don't wear nor buy any nail polishes and the reason .......it is causing me acne, sounds weird but true.... before I was wearing nail polishes 24/7 ...in my hands (nails)....and because I eat with my right hand , the toxic chemicals going with the food in my body......after struggling for like 5-7 yrs with acne ....last year I just unintentionally stopped wearing nail polishes in my hands and voila😌....from the following month my all acnes disappear ....but then again I wore a nail polish to test if it is true.....the next day , there was pimples.....so I confirmed that nail polishes causing me acne, and before that I was cleaning my phone and washing my pillow case 😩
Oh my gosh! I totally believe you, never thought of that. But of course! So good you realized. And nice to know there were other people like me out there. 4 h on nail polish…. Haha but now we can do other things ❤️😂
Love everything about this video. I also stopped using nail polish and dye in my hair. My skincare has only 3 products (cleasing oil, moisturizer and sunscreen) and it will be like this for a while... Not engaging in anymore wasting money. My money will go to tattoos and food now haha
Maybe you don’t near hair creams or gels because your hair is straight and naturally beautiful. For those of us with naturally curly or frizz prone hair, it’s a different story! 😅
Haha, that is very kind of you. My hair gets extremely frizzy, but I only film right after I shower when it looks good. Scandi hair is very dry and brittle.
Oh noo!! Maybe you need to try a different brand? I’ve told all my friends to try for three months, since it takes a while to get the hang of it. I bleed, a lot, so first two days I have to change it every 4-5 hours, but it feels so much better!
I just use water to wash my face & dont use exfoliate (I do use coconut oil with a wash cloth if im super flaky but thats very rare). I use the coconut oil for face & body moisturiser at thr moment but want to switch to just using Almond oil for Everything/Everywhere :) Love your vids, New Subby:"))!! x
I’ve been using Calia for the past few years and I quite like it :) I also like 100% percent pure, but I still haven’t found like my “holy grail” for hair care!
Girrrl, okay so I want to try the specific items you mentioned... vitamin e oil, organic coconut oil, etc but I want to try the specific brands you have.
Thank you!! 🥰 I’ve linked the vitamin e and olive oil! The coconut Oil I use is just the one from my local health food store! If you try them let me know how it goes! 😍 www.iherb.com/pr/nature-s-plus-vitamin-e-oil-14-000-iu-1-2-fl-oz/51373?rcode=GMP613 www.iherb.com/pr/gaea-organic-extra-virgin-olive-oil-17-fl-oz-500-ml/89872?rcode=GMP613
@juliehernandez80 I asked her the same thing and all she said was that she doesn't use anything. I thought maybe because she has blonde hair. But it still would show. I guess she just remains hairy. 😄
No worries, I use the brand Calia and really like it. They offer buying in bulk so that’s what I’m doing atm. I’ve tried chickpea flour and ACV but doesn’t really seem to work for my hair
Liked your video,so does that mean you dont use hairstyling tools either any heat on ur hair.i started to stop buyin hair care products nd it includes hair styling tools.letin my hair be natural
If you don't use perfume, what fragrance do you use for your body? Sometimes perfume makes me nauseous so i use baby cologne, but i want to try something new. Any recommendations?
Nice video! You have a new subscriber :-) I'm surprised you still use (natural) shampoo and conditioner. I stopped doing that 7 years ago and I don't miss it. Have you tried water-only hair washing yet?
Thank you so much 😍 I have tried water only, Fenugreek, ACV rinse, and no poo. Yet still no luck 😂 my hair becomes even more brittle and quite heavy. Do you have any tips?🥰
@@SagaJohanna Have you tried with green clay or chickpea flour? That helped me for the initial period when my hair was too oily. I also liked Aleppo soap, both for body and hair. It is often recommended to use a boar bristle brush to distribute the natural oils but that didn't work for my hair. I use a wooden comb. I hope you find something that suits you and your hair.
@@SagaJohanna Hi!! I dont wash my hair with shampoo. However i use rye flour and oat flour (one tablespoon of each). I dilute them in one cup of warm water (mint/camomile tea strained). Let it sit for about 15/20 minutes. Then strain the flour. The consistency is of a shampoo. Its great. My advice: before washing your hair, massage your scalp to the roots, then brush your hair gently. Then wash as a regular shampoo. Its fantastic!!
Great ideas except one. Most of us want to remove unwanted hair. So we need some kind of hair removal product. You must not have any unwanted hair anywear on your body or face. Or do you just let it show?! 🤔😄😦
I've given up on shaving yes haha! It felt a bit awkward and uncomfortable at first, but I prefer letting it show lol! :D Being in my body as it it is, naturally!
My hair is super fine too, cold showering helps it lay nicer, also oil or sea salt spray I think works quite well! Let me know if you try it 🥰 especially for short hair sea salt spray gives really nice texture
There is no need for sunscreen. The skin need ph balanced, so it protects itself. I use only soap and sheabutter and my skin is better than ever. Now I am 33 and Iove the sun.
Yes and if you get your Vit D levels high enough and slowly expose your skin daily we would be so much healthier! So much disease is caused by low levels of D3K2 and toxic sunscreen.
Love the video! and you look like a runway model. So pretty! I've been cutting my hair too. I can't believe how much money I had spend in the past. It literally takes me about 15 mins and no one notices that I cut my own hair as I have long hair😃
Eye make-up, especially tons of it that some women wear, and fake eyelashes, make a woman look ridiculous. Now, Saga.Johanna, you said you no longer have hair removal products or use services that remove unwanted hair. So how do you remove unwanted hair?
You are lucky you do not have acne and ezcema. Btw I used coconut oil one peroid and I developed an abcess on my butt. If i were you i'll use proper skincare. Infections are very scary. Also please use a pad. Whatever your shafting up your vagima is not 100% steralized.
I have struggled with acne in the past. Coconut oil has been proven safe to use in several trials. It is proper skin care. Putting harsh chemicals on your face is not. Silicone period cups have been used for years and they are more sterile and safe than pads. It’s not healthy to “sit in blood” and humidity. That literally causes infection. However, silicone is hypoallergenic and boiling it kills all bacteria. So it is very safe and much better for your health’
I love ya but no. You have to smell good. Working around food or other smelly things, you need perfume, deodorant and such. No one like body oder and people sweat. I'm curious as to your husband's nationality and if you will be covering your hair next. Saving money is one thing, giving up smelling good is another.
Im sorry , hairy women are not beautiful or feminine. The others i agree. This is my opinion that i feel honors my grandmothers who taught me properly. Im sorry , i just realized u dont use tempons...u went 2 far.

So what happened to me with the "nail polish" is that .....I was also a nail polish junkie... buying all the different nail polishes, doing my nails for like 4 hrs....and now I don't wear nor buy any nail polishes and the reason .......it is causing me acne, sounds weird but true.... before I was wearing nail polishes 24/7 ...in my hands (nails)....and because I eat with my right hand , the toxic chemicals going with the food in my body......after struggling for like 5-7 yrs with acne ....last year I just unintentionally stopped wearing nail polishes in my hands and voila😌....from the following month my all acnes disappear ....but then again I wore a nail polish to test if it is true.....the next day , there was pimples.....so I confirmed that nail polishes causing me acne, and before that I was cleaning my phone and washing my pillow case 😩
Oh my gosh! I totally believe you, never thought of that. But of course! So good you realized. And nice to know there were other people like me out there. 4 h on nail polish…. Haha but now we can do other things ❤️😂
I love this! I am so inspired
Thanks so much!!
Love everything about this video. I also stopped using nail polish and dye in my hair. My skincare has only 3 products (cleasing oil, moisturizer and sunscreen) and it will be like this for a while... Not engaging in anymore wasting money. My money will go to tattoos and food now haha
Thank you so much! Yes, I did too. It was hard at first but now I can't understand I didn't do it sooner! Haha :D
can i ask, why dont u use oil as moisturizer?
Hello! Please share what is in your makeup bag now? It's very interesting to see you leave
I am so inspired by this video!!❤
Awesome! Thank you!
I'm trying so hard to be minimalist cause all my life I hate stuff
There is also organic perfumes on the market for those who wants a healthier option
Yes great point! My friend used CLEAN and loves them :)
Maybe you don’t near hair creams or gels because your hair is straight and naturally beautiful. For those of us with naturally curly or frizz prone hair, it’s a different story! 😅
Haha, that is very kind of you. My hair gets extremely frizzy, but I only film right after I shower when it looks good. Scandi hair is very dry and brittle.
Спасибо. Ваше видео было очень полезно и помогло почерпнуть много новых идей в направлении минимализма и экономии.
❤️❤️❤️
I want to use a period cup..but I’ve tried it and it was not good! Omg blood everywhere! I’ve had 4 pregnancies though.
Oh noo!! Maybe you need to try a different brand?
I’ve told all my friends to try for three months, since it takes a while to get the hang of it. I bleed, a lot, so first two days I have to change it every 4-5 hours, but it feels so much better!
I agree with y’all ❤
Tack! I love your videos. They're very informative.
Glad you like them!
I'm totally with you.
Love this!
Can I ask what do you use to moisturise your skin when it’s dry?
Thank you! 🥰 I use pure vitamin E oil and organic Olive oil. I use this every day ☺️ I’ll make a skin care routine video soon!
I just use water to wash my face & dont use exfoliate (I do use coconut oil with a wash cloth if im super flaky but thats very rare). I use the coconut oil for face & body moisturiser at thr moment but want to switch to just using Almond oil for Everything/Everywhere :) Love your vids, New Subby:"))!! x
Thank you so much! I love coconut oil on my body, but have switched to olive oil for the price! xx
No worries! I might give Olive Oil a try too because ive never tried it so might see how that goes first. Thanks Hon :)! xx
How do you smell good? I mean lets say you’re out the whole day, sun is scorching,city is dusty. How do you still smell good for the day?
New subbie, I like your content but where do you have that pretty necklace from? :P
Yay! And thank you! ❤️ it’s from a shop from Etsy called AlohaSol :) I love it so much
You are so cute. Please do a home tour xx
Thank you! You Are 🥰 one coming in the next few weeks!
Could you suggest good shampoo, and conditioners that you would use. Am using up what I have and looking for some natural shampoo to get.
I’ve been using Calia for the past few years and I quite like it :) I also like 100% percent pure, but I still haven’t found like my “holy grail” for hair care!
I love it thank you ♡
Thanks so much!
Girrrl, okay so I want to try the specific items you mentioned... vitamin e oil, organic coconut oil, etc but I want to try the specific brands you have.
Thank you!! 🥰 I’ve linked the vitamin e and olive oil!
The coconut Oil I use is just the one from my local health food store! If you try them let me know how it goes! 😍

Question. There is refined unrefined. Virgin etc... which do you use?
@@karlamateos8428 sorry for late reply! Unrefined normally :)
If you remove hair, what do you use for hair removal?
@juliehernandez80 I asked her the same thing and all she said was that she doesn't use anything. I thought maybe because she has blonde hair. But it still would show. I guess she just remains hairy. 😄
How do you do hair removal though if you don't buy razors or waxing?
I've stopped removing body hair :)
Sorry If you already answered this, but what natural shampoo and conditioner do you use?
No worries, I use the brand Calia and really like it. They offer buying in bulk so that’s what I’m doing atm. I’ve tried chickpea flour and ACV but doesn’t really seem to work for my hair
Your editing is so cute
Liked your video,so does that mean you dont use hairstyling tools either any heat on ur hair.i started to stop buyin hair care products nd it includes hair styling tools.letin my hair be natural
Thank you 🥰 yes, I only have a hairbrush. No hairdryer or other tools! That sounds great!
Omg thank you for replying.i will continue to see your videos.
@@mercy19900 There will be more beauty and minimalist videos in the near future for sure. Thank you for your support!
Do you use anything in your bath?
No, not really :) just shampoo and conditioner washing my hair!
Show us what's in your beauty 🎒 bag ;)
Video coming soon! Thanks for watching 🥰
Yeah, and a what's in my bag video 😊
@@jessie9653 yes, great idea!!
I needed to hear this
Really love your video!
Thank you so much! ❤️
Which shampoo and conditioner do you use?
Currently the Calia brand :) I’m still looking for a bar version though!
Your channel is awesome
Aw thanks so mcuh :D
Wavy hair girl here. You do need hair products to manage the jungle 😂😂😂
If you don't use perfume, what fragrance do you use for your body? Sometimes perfume makes me nauseous so i use baby cologne, but i want to try something new. Any recommendations?
Nice video! You have a new subscriber :-) I'm surprised you still use (natural) shampoo and conditioner. I stopped doing that 7 years ago and I don't miss it. Have you tried water-only hair washing yet?
Thank you so much 😍 I have tried water only, Fenugreek, ACV rinse, and no poo. Yet still no luck 😂 my hair becomes even more brittle and quite heavy. Do you have any tips?🥰
@@SagaJohanna Have you tried with green clay or chickpea flour? That helped me for the initial period when my hair was too oily. I also liked Aleppo soap, both for body and hair. It is often recommended to use a boar bristle brush to distribute the natural oils but that didn't work for my hair. I use a wooden comb. I hope you find something that suits you and your hair.
@@SagaJohanna Hi!! I dont wash my hair with shampoo. However i use rye flour and oat flour (one tablespoon of each). I dilute them in one cup of warm water (mint/camomile tea strained). Let it sit for about 15/20 minutes. Then strain the flour. The consistency is of a shampoo. Its great. My advice: before washing your hair, massage your scalp to the roots, then brush your hair gently. Then wash as a regular shampoo. Its fantastic!!
@@NadiaPoulin Chickpea is also great ;)
@@andreiadetavora8471 Wow that is amazing! How do you use it? I have tried flour before but it gets so messy and clogs up the shower drain!
Привет) Интересно увидеть обзор твоей косметички🤗 У меня ещё большая косметичка, но не такая большая, как год назад)
Hi! :) thank you! Mine used to be so big haha 😂 but every year it gets smaller 🥰
❤️
Wow, the money I've wasted. 😢
No more!😊
❤
🖤
Great ideas except one. Most of us want to remove unwanted hair. So we need some kind of hair removal product. You must not have any unwanted hair anywear on your body or face. Or do you just let it show?! 🤔😄😦
I've given up on shaving yes haha! It felt a bit awkward and uncomfortable at first, but I prefer letting it show lol! :D Being in my body as it it is, naturally!
I have curly hair sooooo... ahah (:
I use hair spray because my hair is fine and short🤔. Any suggestions of what to use instead?
My hair is super fine too, cold showering helps it lay nicer, also oil or sea salt spray I think works quite well! Let me know if you try it 🥰 especially for short hair sea salt spray gives really nice texture
You can make hairspray by boiling lemons in water. It works really well! Bea Johnson of Zero Waste Home has a recipe.
nice!!!
Thank you! ❤️
What shampoo bar do you use?? Thanks!
Currently I use liquid shampoo from Calia. But I’ve also had pretty good results from Lush shampoo bars and local brand ones 🥰
I love you!
😍😍😍 I love you! 🥰
You are absolutely stunning. What a waste of money that was. 🙂
There is no need for sunscreen. The skin need ph balanced, so it protects itself. I use only soap and sheabutter and my skin is better than ever. Now I am 33 and Iove the sun.
If I go outside without sunscreen my skin gets red, and science says otherwise.
Yes and if you get your Vit D levels high enough and slowly expose your skin daily we would be so much healthier! So much disease is caused by low levels of D3K2 and toxic sunscreen.
Love the video! and you look like a runway model. So pretty!
I've been cutting my hair too. I can't believe how much money I had spend in the past.
It literally takes me about 15 mins and no one notices that I cut my own hair as I have long hair😃
Thank you! Wow that is so sweet 🥰
Haha yes my hair is also so long so no one notice I cut it myself 😂
Me too 😃
Eye make-up, especially tons of it that some women wear, and fake eyelashes, make a woman look ridiculous. Now, Saga.Johanna, you said you no longer have hair removal products or use services that remove unwanted hair. So how do you remove unwanted hair?
why is cutting your hair yourself healty
I hope I didn’t say healthy 😂 I think it’s great because it’s cheap and no chemicals are used to wash/style hair :)
So you don’t shave ?
Nope :)
You are lucky you do not have acne and ezcema. Btw I used coconut oil one peroid and I developed an abcess on my butt. If i were you i'll use proper skincare. Infections are very scary. Also please use a pad. Whatever your shafting up your vagima is not 100% steralized.
I have struggled with acne in the past. Coconut oil has been proven safe to use in several trials. It is proper skin care. Putting harsh chemicals on your face is not. Silicone period cups have been used for years and they are more sterile and safe than pads. It’s not healthy to “sit in blood” and humidity. That literally causes infection. However, silicone is hypoallergenic and boiling it kills all bacteria. So it is very safe and much better for your health’
🤍💚💜
Get real
I love ya but no. You have to smell good. Working around food or other smelly things, you need perfume, deodorant and such. No one like body oder and people sweat. I'm curious as to your husband's nationality and if you will be covering your hair next. Saving money is one thing, giving up smelling good is another.
Im sorry , hairy women are not beautiful or feminine. The others i agree. This is my opinion that i feel honors my grandmothers who taught me properly.
Im sorry , i just realized u dont use tempons...u went 2 far.
