My Favorite Products & Brands

Every time I do a cooking demo or hop on a LIVE video, I'm asked

“What brand is that skillet?”
“What sauce are you using?”
“What makeup do you wear?”
“How do you curl your hair?”

I get it! I love product recommendations from people I trust too… which is why I'm trying to make it as simple as possible for you to find all of my favorite brands and products!

And since Valentine's Day is just around the corner, it seemed appropriate to share everything I love this week!

I have a “FAVORITES” tab right here on my website which links to mostly everything I talk about and it's recently been updated… kitchen gadgets, food, snacks, health & beauty, supplements, fitness, business… you name it!

All About the Charcoal Mask (with video)

Ever wonder how I apply the amazing Charcoal Mask from Beautycounter?

In this video, recorded Live on Facebook, Liz and I show you just how we do it (hint, hint: this method also helps you get the most out of this high-end product!).

Then, we answered YOUR questions all about the Charcoal Mask and the Charcoal Bar, including how often we use it, when we like to apply it, and the best ways to remove it.

Highlights from Instagram

For about a year of my life, I wrote this book called “Practical Paleo.” And then, for about another year of my life, I RE-WROTE it… partly because I'm crazy, but mostly because I always want you all to have MY BEST. . 99.9% of the Paleo-oriented questions you may have are answered in these pages, often with a chart or guide, to make it so, so, SO easy for you to spend less than it would cost for a dinner out and to have me right by your side, helping and coaching you along your journey. . The thing is, after 4 years and lots of changes in the Paleo community and conversations, there was more to say than what I put in the original. . There were more questions to answer, new topics to address, and new kinds of recipes you all said you wanted more of. . And, while perhaps many of you wish that this had been a separate or 100% new/different book, I felt SO strongly that it needed to be an updated edition. I wanted your friends and family to be able to go into a store and just get “Practical Paleo” when you recommend it to them. I didn't want them to be confused about volume 1 or 2, or part 1 or 2… or whatever. . Yes, perhaps for a little while some stores may have both and some may need to choose, but soon enough this new, improved, better, MY BEST edition of #PracticalPaleo will be the only go-to when you refer someone. And I can't wait to see and hear how it changes their life. . For the full video where I gave you a tour of (almost) all of the new content in this book, head over to my Facebook page now or blog.balancedbites.com/live to get there 😘 #Paleo #biggerbetterbest #paleoeasybutton #bbspices #paleobible

🥓🍳Quick breakfast because I prepped these mostly hard boiled eggs last night – topped with a smear of @primalkitchenfoods chipotle mayo, some @pratherranchmeatco bacon, and @chameleoncoldbrew mocha in my #21dsd Hangry Monster sippy cup 🤣#Paleo #keto #lowcarb

🥑🙌🏻🏈LET'S MAKE GUAC!🥑🙌🏻See how easy it is to make for the BIG GAME in this quickie video and get the recipe now on the blog – link in my bio! 👆🏻The grain-free tortilla chips in this video are from @sietefoods and the lime is my favorite! . This recipe is from The 21-Day Sugar Detox guide book and if you make it from this video I recommend doubling it- the original recipe calls for 4 avocados and you definitely want that many for a party – or more! . Got questions? Want ingredient tips? Watch the full video on my site for more details as I make it! . Looking for products I post about? Check my favorites page on my site or… google it! 😘 . #paleo #pracicalpaleo #21dsd (guac only) #notsponsored #cookwithdiane #dianeonfblive #guacamole
