When Jane Emma started her career journey, she certainly didn’t think she would end up in water filtration. But she was happy that she did. She got her foot in the door through her husband’s company, which had already installed many water filtration systems. Being pregnant then, she was hyper-focused on improving every aspect of her and her family’s life and making it as clean as possible. So she started her research about water and went down a rabbit hole that she’s never been able to come out of since. She became very passionate about two things: clean water and transparent and easy-to-manage water systems.

Lunaescent is a patent pending multipurpose beauty tool designed for the application of skincare as well as massaging and depuffing without using fingers. No fingers, no germs, no waste. Lunaescent can be used with any type of skincare such as oils, serums, lotions, sunscreen, and even medicated creams and makeup. Each kit comes with two Platinum grade silicone pads - one is smooth for application and the other pad is textured for massaging and depuffing. The pads are completely non-absorbant and easy to clean and maintain. They can be stored in the freezer for a refreshing massage or warmed in the microwave for better absorption of oils and serums. Lunaescent is a new product category. It is the only tool on the market designed specifically for application of skincare, as well as massaging and depuffing without using fingers. It extends the life of skincare products by avoiding contamination and absorption by fingertips. With pricy skincare products sometimes costing upwards of hundreds of dollars, Lunaescent will make sure that every drop is used more effectively and goes farther. One recent satisfied Amazon customer called it a "magic wand" that "truly cuts down half of the product as most was absorbed by fingers/hands." Lunaescent is available on Lunaescent's website (lunaescent.com) as well as Beauty Bridge, eCosmetics, and Amazon. —— Learn more, connect and enjoy my favorites mentioned: https://bio.site/Cassandramcclure Order a custom Clean Beauty Kit: cleanbeautykit.com Official website: CassandraMcClure.com wear lashes? this is for you: LashBinder.com code: CLEANBEAUTYPODCAST for $5 off your entire order + free shipping anywhere in the US!

*NO LONGER IN BUSINESS* Can mascara change the world? Christie Kerner, CEO of My Little Mascara Club sure thinks so. You see, at My Little Mascara Club, they're doing more than delivering luscious lash formula to mascara lovers everywhere... They're also building a community where women can connect and share their wisdom to help lift each other. A shorter wand makes it SO much easier to apply MASCARA. Your hand is closer to your eye [better coordination, more steadiness], You can get better angles [for beautiful, fanned lashes on the edges]. A smaller mascara is healthier (bye bye bacteria), hello fresh eyes. FDA says toss it out regularly, big ones just last too long. The smaller size also means the tube doesn't dry out and get all clumpy before it's empty. No more throwing away half empty mascaras and NO MORE CLUMPS. learn more at: mylittlemascaraclub.com —— Learn more, connect and enjoy my favorites mentioned: https://bio.site/Cassandramcclure Order a custom Clean Beauty Kit: cleanbeautykit.com Official website: CassandraMcClure.com wear lashes? this is for you: LashBinder.com code: CLEANBEAUTYPODCAST for $5 off your entire order + free shipping anywhere in the US!

Since October 2005, Akasha Be Well has been creating and sharing microbatch, handcrafted face and body products while working diligently as a sustainable Colorado business since August 2016 to bring their visions to life and grow a flourishing online business with naturally effective and naturally balanced skincare products. Much like your skincare journey, our story is one filled with discovery, cultivation, and change. Through this journey in building a skincare business of our own, this one promise remains the same: Tesa Edmonson Jones is the Chief Formulator and Healthy Skin Alchemist behind Akasha Be Well Skincare. Akasha Be Well Skincare first started as a body and hair care endeavor for Tesa. After making progress, discovering her best strengths through her own skincare and wellness journey, and changing to a fully developed natural skincare business, Tesa decided to solely focus on skin and body care. Tesa is an Herbalist, Wellness Advocate, and Biology graduate with more than 15 years of herbal experience and an expertly developed sense for formulation and blending. Her expertise in these areas, including chemistry, comes from her extensive training as a biologist combined with a developed culinary sense to properly create the naturally effective formulations necessary for the development of the skincare line. A devoted wife, mother, and aunt, Tesa enjoys spending time together as a family, cooking, gardening, being a huge bio nerd, and spirited fangirl.
