I am very passionate about using and making Eco-friendly, botanical based products.
I have been learning about environmental issues since I was a teenager, and aromatherapy and herbalism since 2003. I am currently learning Environmental Studies, I would like to do a master's in Environmental Science and Policy. My environmental interests include conservation, mammals, urban wildlife issues, environmental education/awareness, ethnobotany, and public perception.
Crafting interests include all natural and organic plant based cosmetics (skin and hair care), vegetarian and vegan products, kitchen cosmetics, aromatherapy, herbalism, eco-friendly house cleaning products, mineral makeup, paper making, book binding (journal making)and of course soaps and more soaps. In the near future, I plan to start making all natural, vegan make-up.
I own an All-Natural soap company http://www.thesoapkitchentt.com, I also manage The Soap Kitchen facebook group- http://www.new.facebook.com/group.php?gid=16684335639&ref=ts feel free to join the group, I continually write notes on the benefits of using natural products, living a green life and many others all very informative.
How I became a veggie: I do not eat eggs nor dairy products because I believe that it is wrong to cause harm to another being for no reason. I deplore the massive exploitation of non-human animals in our society as a symptom of a greater calamity: a lack of respect and concern for others prevalent in our civilization. Denying the greed underlying this lack of respect does not come naturally; it is not easy to do the right thing all the time. We must, nevertheless, try our best to do so. This is why I am vegan.
