Did you know about 75% of the worlds population is genetically unable to properly digest milk and other dairy products?
Why dairy is bad for you: Here's just some of the facts....
* Dairy is
not good for your bones (there is no evidence) and does not prevent osteoporosis. Countries with low rates of dairy consumption, like Asia, have the lowest rates of osteoporosis.
* Dairy aggravates IBS, allergies, eczema, sinus issues and more.
* Too much consumption comes out through your skin causing white heads and breakouts.
* Dairy is full of saturated fat and is linked to prostate cancer and heart disease
Cows milk is made for cows only..... makes sense right?
What you should do....
* Try cutting out dairy for 2 weeks and see how you feel. You'll have a clearer complexion, less bloating, constipation and gas, you will even lose weight and have more energy.
* Try consuming other foods full of calcium like leafy green vegetables, fruits, beans, seaweed, nuts and whole grains.
* Try fermented products like greek yogurt, kefir and kombucha tea for those good bacterias and probiotics.
* Sub unsweetened almond milk and Daiya cheese (found in Whole Foods)

Keatyn Swift (model) and Erick Anderson (photographer) came to me with a concept to do a shoot with mud. They left it up to me to choose the mediums so I came up with the idea to use modeling clay instead of real mud. I loved how the clay dried on the skin because it created different values of grey and formed a really cool crackle texture. After applying the clay I used black soot loose powder to contour and define then to finish it off I applied gold leaf to some areas for contrast. Here are some behind the scene shots and the finished edit. Enjoy!
