For our family, a nourished life extends beyond our kitchen to nearly every aspect of our home. Sure, what you put in you’re body is extremely important to your overall health, but that’s not to say we should ignore what we put on our bodies. In our home, we’ve ditched shampoo (no, it’s not as gnarly as you might think!) and make good use of natural skincare products and, for me, cosmetics. Because I feel that avoiding chemicals not only in our foods, but also in our personal care products makes a difference, I list natural skin care products on the resources page.

This week, I’m excited to have teamed up with the Homestead Company to get natural personal care products in to your hands. This week the Homestead Company is giving away $40 of merchandise to one Nourished Kitchen reader. The winner will be able to use that $40 gift certificate to purchase any item or items from the Homestead Company’s store. I’d recommend one of the sets – like the Skin Essentials Gift Set or the Mommy and Baby Starter Set which combine multiple products to try.

The Nitty Gritty Details

The Prize

• One participant will receive a $40 gift certificate good at the Homestead Company’s online store.
