Similar to my shampoo post, I understand that curl cream is not a necessity. Nor is it something I will 100% repurchase.
But if you are going to buy one, consider one with a brand we can all get behind.
Little steps.

Intentional living is the art of being selective and present during your decision making process.
I understand that shampoo is not environmentally friendly as it is a highly processed item and honestly if we discussed the pros and cons we'd be here forever.
However, I've taken the time to chose something I know I use, make the most of and truly think the brand is a good one.
Little steps.
the why::

minimalism is two things; an art movement and a way of life.

recently i've been thinking.
i know i shouldn't do that because honestly it just causes problems.
but.
I think i need to make some changes.
- reduce the animal products i consume
- avoid anything from companies that have been tested on animals
i'm not saying i'm ready to go fully vegan however i'd like to make smarter choices.
this means more research, fewer purchases and generally being stricter with myself.
small steps though.
firstly switching away from dairy is going to be tough.
dropping all meat - again that's tough because i'm surrounded by meat eaters. not impossible but i don't want to make things too complicated.
beauty and consumables. these are tough because i have a lot to use up. so it will take time.

if there's one thing you can be sure of in our calender, it's the annual trip to france.
well, except this year.
this year we were all caught by 'surprise' by coronavirus and it has thrown our routine out of whack.
last night at 10pm the government introduced a 2 week quarantine for travellers from france, ensuring we 100% couldn't go. dad doesn't have that sort of flexibility.
