Hi, I’m Paulina!

educator, designer, & full-time foodie

I'm a midwest girl through & through. Born in Texas, raised in Iowa, & living in Kansas. Sharing healthy living, educating others on the clean beauty industry, recipe developing, creating community wherever I go, & mid-century modern anything are all things that set my heart on fire!

My day job is as a mama & clean beauty advocate, but my nightlife consists of baking chocolate chip cookies, hosting friends new & old, or indulging in a new dish or cocktail in my city of Kansas City!

I met my husband & best friend, Ben, playing intramural volleyball at Iowa State University & we've been married since 2016. You could say it was love at first *spike!* You can see some of my favorite photos of us below!

My relationship with Jesus is the most life-giving & transformational & I hope to share His love & hope through all I do on here & in real life!


Here are a few get-to-know-me questions for ya!

What are you most likely re-watching? The Office, The Holiday, or The Established Home. 

How do you take your coffee? This is a very important question! At home: with a hefty scoop of collagen & a splash of cream. At a coffee shop: oat milk matcha latte or flat white.

What’s your favorite country you’ve visited? Austria because of the Alps, spΓ€tzel, & my family’s heritage.

Why did you start Paulina Comes Clean? I have been dreaming of starting a blog/ online website for too many years now & finally decided it was time! For too long I let fear hold me back (and sometimes still do!), but I decided it was time to move forward anyway and I’m excited to have a little space online. My hope is to use this as a community builder & creative outlet.

What Bible verse is giving you life & hope right now? β€œMay the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.” Romans 15:13

xoxo,
