Welcome to Beauty 4 Peace


Today is the beginning of a path toward beauty with passion, integrity and a sense of missionMy mission statement: "I will bridge the gap between peace, elegance, beauty,nature and science. Leading the industry with integrity and a passion for beauty."My name is Callie and I live in LA with my husband. My passion for beauty began when I used to watch my mother pile on Chanel in her bathroom (which looked more like a cosmetic counter in Nordstrom:)) when I was about 5 years old. This inspired me to unlock my inner artist and try playing with makeup. When I was only 10 years old and my grandmother took me to the Lancome counter and bought me my first full regime of skincare. Cleansing, Toning and Moisturizing has been ingrained in me similarly to the way the brushing your teeth and doing your homework was to most of my friends. My first job in the industry was at Lancome in Macy's when I was 15 years old. ( I don't think that it was legal for them to even hire me, but they did:) ) My career in beauty has allowed me to work for a hand full of large beauty retailers such as Club Monaco Cosmetics, Aveda, The Body Shop and Space NK. When working for these companies I realized that it was important for me to recommend products that produced  results but were made with integrity.  A big part of my life is to give back to people and the environment,  because of that you will also find topics on environmental issues, humanitarian endeavors and education on this page as well.  Tune in daily for reviews and inspiration. Thank you to my friends and my husband for inspiring me to start this blog! Let's enjoy the journey together:) Callie

Pacifica Giveaway

So this post is actually a draft that I never finished from the year 2013. Yes it was 6 years old just sitting in the Queue, and I when I saw it I said I got to dig this baby out and also share the update on Pacifica! Alot has happened since then. When  I first found Pacifica on shelves back then at my local supermarket it was candles and perfume and  now they don't make their candles anymore and focus on makeup, skincare and body-care. In 2013 I got the pleasure to meet the founder Brook Harvey- Taylor and then again this year 2018 I reconnected with her at a show. I guess this is one of those pinch me moments when I realize that I actually have come so far in my life and business goals and didn't even realize it! SURPRISE their is a GIVEAWAY of their products for you guys !!!  I was just shipped a box full of their new Crystal bath line and they want me to give it away to one lucky follower who is a mama and needs some serious Crystal Bath Rejuvenation! To enter hea...
As a working mother from home it can be hard to accomplish tasks. Does anyone else have this problem? It is so easy to just want to snack, make coffee, search the internet and so on. The hardest thing I am challenging is launching a business and then doing all the other house chores and running around I need to. One thing I am determined to do is be more efficient with my time and also write down all my activities so I don't loose track of time. But the funniest thing is, since I am The Green Beauty Mom  you would think the first I do is get up and wash my face and do a skin care ritual and then put on some organic green makeup:) Well because of breast feeding 6 times a night and waking up half awake the first thing I reach for now is COFFEE!!!!! Sound familiar to any mom's out there? Just keeping it real today-The Green Beauty Mom

Gel Manicure!!!! New Spa Review

This is the place on Main St. in Santa Monica:) Hello Good Friday afternoon. This morning I went to get my nails done at this new Spa/Boutique in Santa Monica called "Alchemie". It is so cute!!!!!I discovered it the other night driving down Main St. I parked and went in and met Mary at the desk, she is the owner and so nice and friendly. I noticed on their sign outside that they offered a $38 introductory gel manicure. She told me about the service and how they serve you tea as well, so I decided to book an appointment for the following morning. The atmosphere is modern spa chic, where they offer a retail boutique selling Clarsonic machines, Eminence Organic Skin Care products, Butter nail polish from the UK and jewelry. Honestly  a relaxing atmosphere makes a world of difference when you are treating yourself to a massage, manicure, facial or whatever it maybe. This place really has a great vibe.  Amy was my manicurist, she is ...
