Sadly, it's a bit obvious that it's been months since I've last blogged. I had been really focused on progressing in school and work this past semester. It was all a lot more difficult and time consuming then I had originally thought, go figure.
Anyways, I am really excited to get back into blogging. This break has given me the opportunity to think about why I started this blog and if I truely want to continue. I obviously have a love for everything beauty, though my friends would say I’m more obsessed then anything. From the start of my exposer to beauty, I knew I liked it in more ways then just want it could do to my face. As I delved into the industry, I was in awe with all the smoke and mirrors. Honestly, haven’t we all fallen into that trap? As I kept investigating there were things that became clear to me, both on a logical business sense and ethically. I just didn’t like what was behind all the things I originally fell in love with. Being someone who not only had such a strong interest in beauty but also a love for politics and research I began focusing on researching different cruelty-free brands and products. When I decided on switching to strictly cruelty-free brands, I felt like I was doing this confusing transition alone. I wondered if others felt like that too and I wanted to spread my thoughts, ideas, reviews somewhere where others could read it. It all led me to start this blog as an outlet and journal to track my shift into cruelty-free beauty.
I’m really looking forward to continue sharing and seeing where this takes me. I also started an instagram account for the blog where I’ll be posting beauty and lifestyle photos, @theurbanbeautyjunkie. I’m really glad to have the opportunity to continue this and I really wanted to thank you for reading this.
