Summary

We’re talking with about our cultures, our upbringings, and what sustainability looks like in our families – things that are not the beautiful minimalistic images we’re seeing on Instagram. Five community members join us today to share stories and cultural values, plus how those practices have influenced their adult, grown-up choices. Sustainability is personal, because it’s a lifestyle, and it’s not fair to say that sustainability needs to look a certain way to be done “correctly.” I am thankful to be joined today by: * Sabina – she is Australian; we discuss the home her family built and her low-key hippie parents (so fun!) * Eyra – she is Salvadorian; we talk about immigrating to the U.S., poverty and the financial necessity behind some so-called sustainability practices* Ashley – she is Mexican-American;we talk about food, family traditions, how some cultural practices (like capsule wardrobes) weren’t trendy before they were marketed as sustainability* Michelle – she is Salvadorian, and first generation American; we talk about little things at home like how you use your kitchen and how you maintain some of those sustainable practices as you assimilate into American culture* Bea – she is Filipino; she shares her experiences comparing and contrasting how she lives in the Phillipines versus in California, plus some take-home tips for you if you’re interested in adopting some additional sustainability practices Let’s hang out! Instagram is @ecochicpodcast / @lauraediez, + I am now on Twitter, @lauraediez. We’re on Facebook, ECO CHIC Podcast. Sign up for my Monday newsletter at: https://mailchi.mp/f9324e3609e4/eco-chic.

0:57.4	I've told you before how much I like Blasoma's glow face mask. That really fabulous powdered
1:03.0	mask that has turmeric and amino acids and just feels so nice and clearing on the skin. But today I
1:09.0	want to tell you about their mild rice cleanser.
1:12.5	I used to think that all facial cleansers and face wash was created equal, but it totally isn't.
1:18.1	You know when you use a face wash and it leaves your skin tight? I used to think that that was good.
1:23.2	It's actually awful. It means it's stripping all of the oils from your skin. And what I like about the
1:27.8	Blasoma Cleanser is that it is gentle enough to leave my skin as moisturized and ideally supple
1:35.4	as it needs to be before I am putting on my facial products. And what's nice about it as well is that
1:41.1	I feel like it's gentle enough to use both in the morning at the night. At night, I like it right before I go to bed, but in the morning, if I'm using a retinal
1:47.7	product overnight or something that I know is quite harming if in the sun, I want to wash my face.
1:53.0	And I find that the mild rice cleanser from Blasoma is the only thing that really gets the job
1:59.8	done and allows me to continue feeling my
