What’s happening around the world this week in vegan food, lifestyle & wellness!

Hey everyone, I just wanted to tell you some info about my new post series! I studied journalism/media production at Ithaca College and worked at several news publications throughout college, so I am a news writer at heart. I wanted to merge my passion for news with my love of vegan food by publishing news roundups on Lazy Girl Vegan. I will share the top news & events that are happening in vegan food, lifestyle and wellness since I keep up with that stuff every day anyway!
It’s always a happy day when the mail person rings my doorbell to deliver my Vegan Cuts Beauty Box! This is my fourth month subscribing, and I highly recommend it. Through this service, I’ve discovered so many cool beauty and skincare products that have helped me overhaul my old collection and create a new one that’s friendlier to my body, animals, and the Earth!
Last month, I received my third delivery of my Vegan Cuts Beauty Box subscription, and this is my favorite box so far. It featured a nice mix of face wash, eye color, deodorant, toothpaste, lip balm, and soap — essentials for summer traveling.

I love the specialty boxes from Vegan Cuts. This year, the company has come out with a Meat & Cheese Box, as well as a Camping Box. Now, they offer a Vegan Facial Care Box, which is packed with $170 worth of essential face oils, a kale and spirulina mask, exfoliators, moisturizers, toner, and more — all without the luxe price tag!
Aside from the food part of my 30-day vegan challenge, I would like to talk about an aspect of the vegan and clean lifestyle that many people might not think about when first making the switch — what’s inside our everyday beauty products.
It sucks that most of the skin care, shampoo, makeup, etc. that we buy at the grocery store is made with chemicals that are harmful to our body. Plus, some are tested on animals. Because of this, I have recently made the switch to natural shampoo made with no sodium chloride, sulfates, dyes, harsh salts, parabens, or gluten!

Wow, what a week! To say this week has been hard would be an understatement; this has been the week from hell. As they say: “When it rains, it pours.” Today marks day 22 that I have been eating this vegan diet.
It has been 13 days since starting this vegan challenge. In addition to cutting out meat and dairy, I have also cut out all refined sugars and soda, and I rarely eat gluten! Here’s a recap of what I’ve eaten and how I did this challenge last week.

Hello, I’m Brielle! Alexandra introduced me last week. I’m a meat-and-dairy eater and have decided to take on a 30-day challenge of eating more plant-based foods. I would like to start my first blog post by saying how excited I am to be apart of Lazy Girl Vegan during this challenge and to share it with you!

Over the past two years, I’ve been trying new vegan foods and transiting from vegetarian to vegan. Naturally, now that I’m eating a full vegan diet in 2015, I want to take a step up and try eating more of a RAW vegan diet! Not fully raw, just more raw (for now)!
