  • EP9: What's the Deal with Monat?

    EP9: What's the Deal with Monat?
    Nov 14 2022
    In this episode of the Simplified Lux Life podcast, I’m really diving into all things Monat.

    I really love the human and personal aspect of working with a direct sales company, whether that’s as just a customer or as an affiliate. There’s someone you can actually talk to about your needs, which is amazing and something you can’t really do with other beauty companies.

    On top of that Monat offers cruelty-free, vegan and non-toxic products that really do work, and I personally use and love.

    I dive into the “dirt” on Monat, a few of my not-so-favorite things, as well as things I do love about the company.

    I also list some of my all time favorite, tried and true products.

    In this episode we talk about:

    [02:01] Kate’s view of direct sales and network marketing
    [03:19] How I discovered Monat
    [09:58] A major reason Monat is different from other brands
    [13:24] The “dirt” on Monat
    [18:35] Monat products Kate is using and loves

    Important Links Mentioned:

    General shopping link: https://katewaldo.mymonat.com/

  • EP7: How to Get the Stink Out of Lululemon Clothes

    EP7: How to Get the Stink Out of Lululemon Clothes
    Sep 28 2021
    Have you noticed that some of your Lululemon workout clothes really...stink? I almost threw out 3 pairs of leggings before I figured out this hack.

    Listen to the episode all the way through for all the deets (& disclaimers) + a little-known Lululemon tidbit!

    To strip your laundry, you need:
    1/4 cup Borax Detergent Booster (https://amzn.to/3zQpnJw)
    1/4 cup Arm & Hammer Super Washing Soda (https://amzn.to/3uuKaBz)
    1/2 cup of your preferred laundry detergent (scented or unscented - https://amzn.to/3ufrA02)
    Hot water
    A bathtub or bucket to hold the soaking laundry
    A large spoon or something to stir it with
    A measuring scoop
    A few hours to let it soak
