Hey earth muffins! Back in college I was introduced to henna during a Diwali event in my dorm. This paste is applied to the skin and, after it dries, temporarily dyes it. While it has cultural significance in many countries, it has become mainstream in others as well – especially recently on TikTok with the rise in popularity of semi-permanent freckles. I was recently gifted a mandala kit and wanted to share my Mihenna review with you all today!

Hey earth muffins! Meal delivery subscriptions like Hello Fresh and Home Chef have been increasing in popularity over the years. While convenient, these services come with a lot of packaging waste. In addition, the shipping of these kits also has a negative impact on the environment. Sunbasket is advertised as being a healthy, more sustainable alternative to other brands on the market… To put this to the test, I ordered 4 meals from Sunbasket to get a full understanding of the service. Keep reading for all my thoughts on Sunbasket’s meal delivery!
What I Ordered
Sunbasket offers two options for meals. First, there are Fresh & Ready Meals. These are delivered ready to eat – just pop them in the fridge, and heat up for dinner! Most of these meals can be frozen for later if you can’t get around to eating them right away. The second option are Meal Kits. These come with everything you need to cook up a delicious meal. To try out both, I bought 2 Fresh & Ready Meals and 2 Meal Kits – one vegetarian for me and the other with meat for my boyfriend.

Hey earth muffins! I am a huge fan of Zerra & Co’s eco-friendly makeup products. In the past, I’ve reviewed their zero waste mascara and eyeshadow… And it’s time for another review today! Along with these products, I’ve also been using the Zerra & Co eyeliner for the past few months. There is plenty to say about this low waste makeup, so keep reading for a full review!
What I Love About This Eyeliner
The first thing I adore about this eyeliner is the fact that it is truly sustainable. This company lives and breathes their sustainability values (which I fully support!). The eyeliner comes in a little glass jar with a metal top. They even give you an option to get it with a bamboo eyeliner brush or to avoid the brush and just use one you already have. After you use up the product, you can either reuse the jar (perhaps for another makeup product) or participate in Zerra’s container return program. Such a great zero waste brand!
