What is sustainable fashion? Why should we learn more about eco-fashion? What can we do to reduce our carbon footprint that saves rather than costs money? Where can we learn more?

Don't worry, eco-conscious, slow fashion/sustainable fashion doesn't mean being off trend or spending a fortune on sustainable brands but making sure the clothes we already own are well taken care of, shopping a bit more consciously and creating some cool new shopping habits and tricks.

What can we do to reduce our fashion footprint? I'm covering 17 easy tips everyone can do to help the environment and start supporting sustainable fashion that I've picked up from various fashionistas, editorials and eco fashionexperts.

Fashion activists to follow for inspiration: Hoda Katebi, Aja Barber, Céline Semaan, Caryn Franklin, Safia Minney, Orsola de Castro, Tansy Hoskins, Kate Fletcher, Dilys Williams, Safia Minney, Eve Dawes

Understanding the ingredients in your makeup and skincare. Demystifying Bad vs. Good alcohol in cosmetics and your beauty products. Just to confuse you, there's both good and bad types of alcohol in skincare and makeup! This podcast episode is to clarify which alcohol's good and which is bad for your skin. To be able to understand the ingredients in our makeup and skin care products to choose the ones that are best for your skin. That are anti-aging not pro-aging (yes, you read that right), hydrating not drying and that won't destroy our skins barrier, regeneration process or cause breakouts and excess oil.

The healthier snack options that will survive not be refrigerated and won't get crushed in your bag. It can be hard finding healthy snacks to take on the go or to work that won't spoil, melt, smell or crumble in your bag, that don't require silverware, refrigeration or heating up. As well as being actually healthy not deceptively healthy; granola bars and fruit smoothies I'm talking about you.

These are some of my favorite snacks for on the go. I've listed these snacks, as I find they're the healthiest options that don't taste like cardboard and will leave you feeling good.

Most of the pre-packaged snacks on the list are under 200 calories. The one's you serve yourself will depend on the portion size you serve yourself.

Some are higher carb and others are higher protein or higher in fat, so there's something for everyone's nutritional preferences.

Stress is a part of life, it's how we deal with it that's most important. This year has been full of uncertainty, stress and emotions for most of us and finding new stress busters and coping strategies has become even more important.

I'm not talking about lighting candles and breathing but on a more action-based level to create positivity and progress, not shrink away from overwhelming tasks.

I had to remind myself with the recent changes to my business that I'm blessed not stressed. Which reminded me of an episode I did a year ago, around a similar time.

Plus some new ways I have of managing overwhelming projects and life! Along with a glass of wine or 2. I'd love to hear your coping strategies too. Drop me a comment on Instagram @evedawes

Blessed not stressed!

How to wear makeup even when you're melting in the heat and humidity! One of the biggest makeup problems we come across in Summer is makeup melting and trying to make makeup last and survive the sweat.

I live in Vegas and know all about that! It might be dry-heat but if it's 110-120 degrees, it doesn't matter if it's dry heat or if it's humid, you're going to have issues, you're going to sweat.

My good friend and professional makeup artist Jessica Resendez has done my makeup several times for indoor and outdoor photoshoots before, so I know she knows what she's talking about! Jessica's sharing some of her favorite ways of making makeup last in the summer and some of her favorite cruelty-free products: primers, foundations, setting sprays, eyeshadows, liners, and lipsticks for ultimate wear on hot days as well as where to highlight for that youthful look.
