My 5 minute everyday makeup *tutorial*
I am NOT a hair and makeup girl…I can’t blow dry my hair out, I can’t apply a winged liner (or any liner for that matter) and I have never “baked” anything on my face (don’t even know if that’s a real thing). What I can do is apply a simple and efficient *mostly* non toxic “No Makeup Makeup” look. I hope you enjoy and if you have any questions please feel free to leave them in the comments section. XO, Hellowhitney. Products Used: Kosas – Revealer Concealer in 5.5 // Cream Blush in 8th Muse // 10-Second Liquid Eyeshadow in Globe // Wet Lip Oil Gloss in Dip SuperGoop…

My Everyday Jewelry
Whenever I post a picture or story on Instagram I get a ton of questions regarding my jewelry. First of all, thank you, I never knew I was fashionable until now and I am just so flattered you all appreciate a mix matched vibe as much as I do. My approach on jewelry is very simple-I wear what I like and it doesn’t matter to me if its a $1000 piece or a $10 piece. I love to mix and match high end piece with super affordable (which is actually the concept that birthed my little side project Lo Hi Goods). Please check out this video for a full explanation…

A step by step guide on how to save the planet. JK we might be fucked…
This post is going to be structured completely differently than anything I have previously done because it’s not going to be something you read. It’s something you’re going to watch or listen to. I am lucky enough to know Jake Levine (@jakeclevine), who I am interviewing in this Vlog. Jake has a wealth of knowledge in climate change and environment but also in politics and law. He has graciously offered his time and brain to me to interview for this post and he was kind enough to also provide us with 5 calls to action that we can start immediately to do our part in reducing our carbon footprint, as…

FYI- “Fitness and Diet” culture is poisoning your brain.
Almost everyday I receive the same DM on Instagram; “What is your workout routine?” and “How do you eat like you do and not gain weight?” With the exception of posting about PlateFit I never really get detailed about it. Why? Because we are a culture OBSESSED with body image and comparing and I know, for a fact, that what works for me is not guaranteed to work for anyone else. With that being said, I am going to share with you about it here so I can address it long form. Kate Moss famously said, “Nothing tastes as good as being skinny feels.” As much as I love Kate,…

Lets Make Being Socially And Globally Conscious GREAT AGAIN: Part 1
If you’ve known me for awhile personally, or followed my Instagram account for some time, you probably saw the rise to what my Dad likes to refers to as “Woke Whitney”. I don’t exactly know how this happened…Oh no, wait, I know exactly how this happened. It happened when a tyrannical, misogynistic, earth raping, sexual predator was nominated to run as candidate for the office of President by the GOP. This is probably the right time to let you know that if you are someone who supports this dumpster fire of a human being you should probably stop reading now, because unlike some people who feel that they have to…

Zero The Hero
If you ask someone who knows me well to describe me using 3 words I can almost guarantee you that “indecisive” would be one of them. I cannot make big decisions, it’s paralyzing to me. To be honest I can’t really make small ones either. I usually defer to whoever I’m with to decide where we eat, or if I should purchase the pair of shoes and so on and so forth. This isn’t a quality I like about myself. I actually hate it. I agonize and ruminate and eventually just give up and make something to eat at home or put the purchase in question back on the shelf…
