#34: Liver Flush FAQ, Parabens, and Shopping Plans

 

Episode 34: What’s in the Cup + On My Mind: Liver/Gallbladder Flush FAQ, Why are we being persuaded to reconsider parabens, and (Eco) Beauty Shopping Plans

I first tried this concept/structure on Episode #24 from mid-May. I really liked the ability to dive deeper into viewer questions, provide in-depth thoughts on current beauty industry dynamics, and of course discuss products – all in one episode! So today we’re first discussing this series of 4 videos I did back in 2014 (L’Amour in YouTube infancy lol) on Andreas Moritz’s The Amazing Liver & Gallbladder Flush. I still get many questions on these videos and this process today (do I recommend it, what do I think, etc) so I give you ALL the details on the multi-year unfolding of these cleanses. Then, you know we have to talk about parabens. We’re being urged to reconsider them, and the science that had us at least take a precautionary stance on their overuse. While I have absolutely no issue with whatever direction brands choose to go in their own formulations, what I can’t ignore are (tacit) agendas and attempts at manipulation. So let’s unpack that, and then end on a soothing note by talking products. I share what I was testing this past week – loving, unsure about – and then discuss the upcoming Pink Moon and Beauty Heroes orders I’m planning/carts I’m curating.
