With Thanksgiving tomorrow, and the holiday season gearing up, I wanted to take the opportunity to share how to clean out your fridge to prep for the holidays. These steps will make cleaning your fridge a snap, so don’t worry if you don’t have a lot of time to dedicate to this! This time of year, many of us are gathering with our families, cooking together, and have tons of leftovers that can be easily forgotten, or we just can’t get through all of them in time to eat them before they go bad. In this episode, I’m sharing some tips for making a fridge clean-out less overwhelming and time-consuming. These simple and easy steps will help you see exactly what you have, what you need to restock, and what it’s time to let go of so you have some more room in your fridge for those delicious Thanksgiving leftovers.

Last week, we talked a little about knowing when cosmetics and personal care products expire, and how to begin cleaning out your bathroom cupboards. Today, I’m getting a little deeper into the products that we should be considering swapping out for better options because they often have ingredients in them that are prematurely aging our skin. In this episode, I’m focusing on 3 common ingredients that you’ll find in soaps, shampoos, cosmetics, moisturizers, and so much more. The last thing we want when keeping up with our skincare routine is to be using products that are hurting us more than helping. So tune in to learn what ingredients to look out for and what you can use instead.

If you wear makeup or have a skincare routine, you’ve probably had at least one experience where you find an old lipstick at the bottom of your purse after months or found a moisturizer in the back of your drawer and wondered if it’s still good to use. Makeup and personal care products are a bit of a gray area when it comes to expiration dates, but there is a sweet spot for when you should toss out a product and exchange it for a new one. In this episode, I’m debunking some makeup myths and getting to the bottom of how long your products actually last. I’ll also share how you can keep track of “best by” dates and teach you a few tips for extending the life of your makeup products to avoid mold and bacterial growth. If you’ve been thinking that your beauty bag is due for a clean out soon, this is the perfect opportunity to get started!
