Toxic Free Beauty

I decided to clean up my act, I went back to basics on all fronts, my diet, my living environment and my grooming routine.

Cosmetic powders, lotions, sprays, and fragrances can be hard on the body if there are chemicals in them. Beatifying yourself can be easy and toxic free when you know what to avoid.

Many cosmetic companies are not regulated by the FDA, so looking into the ingredients is a good first step.

How you approach your personal care routine can make a big difference. It begins with purchasing clean products. Here are a few tips to help you get started:

The most important knowledge you can possess is understanding of your ingredients!

Avoid the majority of drug store products.

Many mainstream cosmetic companies and products are fill their products with petrochemicals and synthetic fragrances. These chemicals are bad and could potentially be harmful to your reproductive organs, endocrine system, and overall health. 60% of what you put on your body gets into your body, then stores itself in your tissues.

Don’t buy into “greenwashing.”

Because the FDA allows cosmetic companies to regulate themselves, companies that only care about making money can use marketing as to convince you that their product contains all natural ingredients, but most of the time it has petrochemicals in them.

Look at Mission Statements

Look online at the companies mission statement, if you agree with their vision and if about their product’s ingredients, then you can feel good about supporting their business.

Organic & Healthy Food Stores For Beauty

Your beauty regimen can start with your local whole food store. Natural organic stores carry beauty products that are natural and good for the environment. The grocery store is also a great place to get local fruits and vegetables.
