The Brunette Ecoholic: Liebster Award Nomination!

Today I am so excited to share that I was nominated for the Liebster Award by the lovely Ashley Nicole of "Green Beauty Life" (check out her awesome blog here!) This was so unexpected and flattering and I thank you so much Ashley for thinking of me!

So what exactly is the Liebster Award? From what I learned, it's an award given by bloggers to new bloggers who have less than 200 followers. It's a really nice way to discover new and awesome blogs and meet new people.

There are, of course, rules. Nothing difficult, so don't worry. :-)

Liebster Award Rules:

1) Acknowledge and link back to the blogger who nominated you
2) Answer the 10-11 questions posed by the nominator(s)
3) Nominate 5-11 bloggers who have less than 200 followers
4) Create your own 10-11 questions for the nominees
5) Leave a comment on your nominee's blog that you nominated them

Here are the questions Ashley asked me and my responses:

1. If you could only use one beauty product for the rest of your life, what would it be and why?

Just one, LOL? I guess if I had to pick only one beauty product, it would be my creme foundation by Lauren Brooke Cosmetiques. It’s organic skincare, concealer, foundation & spf in one.

2. What do you enjoy the most about blogging?

There are so many things I love, but I think one of my favorite things is meeting so many wonderful and talented people who share the same passion for green living as I do.

3. Name 3 products off the top of your head that you regret buying.

Back before I knew any better it would be Proactiv, Bare Minerals and Oil of Olay

4. Favorite thing about Fall?

Everything! But I especially love the vibrant colors of red and gold that dominate nature during this time.

5. Favorite song at the moment?

I have several, but lately I’m loving “My Songs Know What You Did in the Dark” by Fallout Boy

6. Who is your idol and why?

Wow, that’s a hard one, as I have a few, but If I had to pick only one, then it would be my Nana. She not only survived breast cancer with a sense of humor and a positive attitude you can’t help but admire, but she has also been so successful at everything she has done despite people telling her otherwise.

7. Who or what inspired you to start blogging?

I’ve always loved to write, and since I changed my lifestyle and eating habits a few years ago, I noticed amazing things happening to my skin (I’ve struggle with acne & scarring since I was 9..I’m 42 now), so I decided I wanted to share what I had learned with the rest of the world. I’ve also found relief with other health issues I have had through natural means, so if I can help just one person, it would be so worth it to me.

8. What is your favorite beauty routine that you do? Ex: Morning routine, nighttime routine, painting nails, etc.

I honestly don’t fuss much during the day as I work at home, so I’d have to say getting ready to go out somewhere. I love making my face up and styling my hair, being a total girly girl. ;-)

9. Favorite face mask?

Right now, I’m loving Elaa Organic Skincare’s “Fairy Dust Cleansing Grains” - it doubles as a face mask and scrub..amazing!

10. Favorite way to style your hair?

I love to go all out and curl my hair. It’s really long (middle of my back), so it’s a process but the look on my husband’s face when I am done is worth the time and effort.

11. Favorite fall drink?

Pumpkin Spice ANYTHING! :-)

Now it's my turn to "pay it forward"! I nominate:
