EVENT ALERT + GIVEAWAY. I'm so excited to share that I'm partnering with @mspmag to teach a green beauty class at their #MSPFitFest on February 23! We'll be covering why nontoxic beauty is the greatest thing since sliced bread, and how swapping out conventional makeup and sk…

One of the mantras I use to get myself through tough days, whether they be health related, anxiety fueled or grief stricken. It’s such a good reminder that we’re always changing, always in motion and what we can’t do today, we might be able to do tomorrow. It provides a kind…

I accidentally took a three-week break from IG. It started with a health flare up and morphed into a heavy feeling I’d get in the pit of my stomach when I’d think about checking social media. So I just didn’t. Since then, I’ve pondered that feeling. Part of it stems from the…

I’m just reassuring her that we just have to hold out til Friday, the Winter Solstice and shortest day of the year. Then we won’t want to go to sleep at 4:45 pm every day anymore. 😴🌚#wintersolstice

Me, every fourth day (including today). #dirtyhairdontcare

Reminding myself (again) of this mantra... I always crash after a trip, but somehow I also always forget how bad it can be to be outside of my normal schedule. My body loves a routine and when you’re on vacation, routine is the last thing on my mind. Completely thankful to w…

GIVEAWAY: I talked two posts ago about how @greentidings Calendula Lotion completely saved my skin from a weird, bright red rash that popped up overnight. I’ve been using it for almost a month now, and my skin is adjusting to the chilly MN temps (we’re hitting lows in the si…

Last week, I woke up with a bright red, painful rash spread across almost my whole face. I still haven’t completely pinpointed what caused it, but I turned to my trusty green beauty to help take it down a few notches, and ultimately heal it up in just four days: 1️⃣ @livinglibat…

The mantra I’ve been telling myself on repeat since last week when my most recent chronic illness and pain flare up started. It’s a reminder from my therapist, that each day is different and I can’t judge what I’m capable of today by what I did yesterday, last week, last mon…

Agree / disagree? I actually am on the fence. i work from home so I’m in loungewear all. The. Time. I don’t usually wear leggings as real pants (aka, I wear a top that covers my bum while sporting said leggings) but I don’t fault people who wear them as pants - unless it’s n…

[Nicolle Mackinnon @NicolleBMack]

All about that #selfcaresunday in my new @k.deer leggings I got from @wellsummit. I was a tad skeptical about how the horizontal stripes would look on me but they’re so flattering! And super comfy. Plus, these Signature Stripes are part of the company’s giving back program, …

FALL @labmpls event on Oct. 18: Join me for a Beauty & Wellness event focused on centering and resetting. We’ll be hanging out at the @galleriaedina, enjoying sips & treats while we chat about the power of essential oils, and make a few, easy DIY products that will guide you…

[Nicolle Mackinnon @NicolleBMack]

When you and @nastialiukin have almost the same hair. 💁🏼‍♀️ Had an incredible time interviewing her on the main stage @wellsummit today. Nastia, I find what you’re doing with @grander so inspiring, how you’re using your experience to give back to the next generation. And the tin…

When you stand next to a literal supermodel, you realize how short you are. So enjoyed your keynote, @cturlington! Thank you for sharing with @wellsummit about @everymomcounts and the maternal mortality crisis we’re experiencing worldwide. Here’s to strong women who are shar…

[Nicolle Mackinnon @NicolleBMack]

Always a truly terrific experience at @spotspas. Had to catch up on sugaring and get a mani before @wellsummit this weekend (see my Stories for a completely classic throwback...). Stopping at Spot before I travel has become a pre-trip ritual that relaxes me and preps me for …

Oh, @lilfox.miami, how do I love thee? In facial oils, masks, eye serums and hydrosols. Seriously, I’ve fallen head over heels for everything I’ve tried in this line, including this Prickly Pear Illuminating Beauty Nectar. It’s a minimalist yet potent blend of precious prick…

[Nicolle Mackinnon @NicolleBMack]

I’ve been a @truebotanicals convert since they launched because of their incredible formulas, efficacy and dedication to ingredient sourcing. The Vitamin C Booster, which I started using three weeks ago, doesn’t disappoint. I mix the portable powder easily with whatever seru…

All about the NOT POT @pearlbutter while on this #candida diet that’s fully sugar free. Coconut butter + matcha = delicious. Been spreading it on grain-free English muffins alllll day. #pearlbutter #notpot

[Nicolle Mackinnon @NicolleBMack]

Pulling out the big guns to fight off this sinus infection before @wellsummit next week. Nothing like natural essential oils and Dead Sea salts to kick a cold. @sajewellness and @hopegillerman essential oils are my life must-haves - they come in my purse, on planes, to other…
