August Beauty Heroes // New Exfoliating Toner from Josh Rosebrook

Hi friends! I definitely did not intend to be gone from here as long as I was. I had a GRWM filmed and mostly edited when my external drive that I work off of failed last week, and I wasn’t able to recover all of that GRWM footage (so sad because it was good!). However, I may still upload a “lost footage” version of it to Patreon or something, it’s just incomplete so I won’t publish it here. Instead I decided to film my review of the August Beauty Heroes box featuring a new product release from Josh Rosebrook, the Daily Acid Toner. I also took this review as an opportunity to share with you some recent interactions I had with Josh over his paraben post on social media from early July. There’s a lot going on in the beauty industry with ample critique leveled against green/eco beauty, which I see as a microcosm of broader agendas against non-mainstream research and perspectives on health and wellness. I’m ready to enter this convo! Looking forward to hearing from you, as always. Xoxo, mercedes.
