It's time for my second vegan and cruelty free mascara review! As you may remember, I'm doing research into animal and animal-testing free makeup for my upcoming nuptials, and finding the perfect mascara is definitely at the top of my list! If you missed the last one, for Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara, click here! I also reviewed e.l.f.'s mad for matte palette, which you can read here.
Let's get to the review of Pacifica's Aquarian Gaze Mascara!
Read MoreYou know how to be vegan at home. You’ve learned what you like, found a local farmer’s market, frequent your favourite restaurants and have a routine. So what happens when everything gets shaken up? Maintaining a vegan diet in restrictive circumstances can be difficult, something I know all too well from working on cruise ships!

The only problem? I packed WAY too much. To my credit, I had no idea what one should pack for 6 months at sea… but a guitar, a backpack, and two huge suitcases weighing in at over 70 lbs each?

And believe me, lugging those babies around in the bowels of a ship was NOT a cake-walk).
So as I prepare for my second contract, a quick month, I know I can do better. I am a minimalist now, after all. I have Marie Kondo on my side. I have KonMari in my blood. Ok, maybe I’ve taken this a bit too far… Anyway, I am definitely better equipped this time around to pack minimally for maximal impact.
As I still vividly remember how painful it was trying to decide what to bring and what to leave behind last fall, I thought I would take you along for the ride in the hopes that you can learn from my mistakes and be ready for any opportunity that comes your way!
