BeautyCounter

Once I started making more conscious decisions about what I ate, it occurred to me that I was still slathering my body and hair in cheap drugstore products. With our skin as our biggest organ, our body is absorbing the chemicals, toxins, and other ingredients from our skincare. There have been countless studies showing that these ingredients include carcinogens and endocrine disruptors. Think about what impact that has on our overall health!

To add to this, a major federal regulation regarding self care products has not been passed since 1938. That means there is very little oversight about what can be included in our mainstream lotions, shampoos, toothpastes, etc…

That is why I started using and then consulting for BeautyCounter. This company seeks to educate consumers about the importance for safe skin care, advocate to make reforms for the cosmetics and personal care industry, and provide quality, performing products.

I love using BeautyCounter skin care and makeup because I know I can trust what I am using on my body. We can eat the most nutritious meals, but if we are not taking care of our bodies with our skincare and lifestyle choices, it’s not going to allow us to be our healthiest selves.
