Why I Joined Beautycounter
Clean, clean, clean. I feel like it’s all we hear about now. Clean eating, clean beauty, clean cleaning products.
The list goes on and on. I’ll be the first to say I definitely try to eat pretty clean, most of the time, but other areas of my life are definitely not filled with “clean” products. So say hello to Beautycounter. A sweet friend introduced me to the brand ages ago and I just brushed it off, clean beauty wasn’t really a thing then. Fast forward to a few years later and it’s all people are talking about. Missed the boat on that one, ha!
I really started looking into what’s in the products I’m putting onto my face and body AND onto my kids bodies and needless to say I wasn’t super pleased with some of the results. My favorite foundation, rated a 4 by the EWG meaning it is moderately hazardous to my health. WHAT?! I started to look up products I use on the kids, like my go to sunscreen for them…..also rated a 4. Keep in mind that it comes from a company that prides themselves on being “clean”.
I decided that since I care so much about what I am putting into my body with food, that I probably need to examine what I was putting onto my body a little more closely.
Another wonderful friend approached me around this time and suggested Beautycounter again. She gave me a charcoal mask to try and I was on my way. Not only did I love that mask but it cleared up a zit I had overnight. I grabbed a few other things, including a shampoo for the kiddos and I was on my way to starting my clean products conversion. Don’t get me wrong, this is a work in progress people. I may still be using some chemical infused makeup for a while but I’m on my way to being clean inside and out.
I also hit the jackpot and started this journey at the right time. Beautycounter just started friends and family which means 15% off your purchase through August 12th!
