Plant Shift

love ♥ living ♥ vegan

Following a plant-based or vegan lifestyle, is about food, drink, clothes, shoes, body treatments, hair products and more. 

It's a conscious decision to think, walk and possibly, talk a better lifestyle. 

I support individuals who are thinking about making the shift, as well as, those who have already begun their plant-based journey.

Drinking Chaas for the first time in six years!

What is Chaas?

Chaas is often described as a yogurt drink. It's usually made of 4 ingredients - yogurt, water, salt and cumin. It is popular in the Indian states Gujarat and Rajasthan, where it is drunk with the main meal.

Before I shifted to a vegan diet in 2008, I used to drink Chaas quite often. Mum made her own yogurt at home and we'd make Chaas from it. However, after becoming aware of how the dairy industry works, there was no compromise. I had to shift to a vegan diet and therefore Chaas was out!

Find out how I excited I was to find a vegan alternative!

Luxe vegan makeup brushes from Nanshy

I came across the brand Nanshy recently. I discovered that they choose to stock 100% cruelty free make-up brushes and tools. Isn't that amazing? 

In their own words...In a world where the fast fashion and beauty industries are at their biggest, and cruelty and production often aren't taken into consideration, Nanshy is a refreshing addition to the market. 

With this in mind, I wanted to tell you more about them! Paula Pokora will fill you in! Oh and there's a gift for you at the bottom of this post.
