There’s been a lot of buzz about clean beauty products. We are all working on eating healthier, cleaner and organic. But did you know that everything you are putting on your skin is just as important? Take some time out to review what you use every day - from toothpaste, to your favorite deodorant, even your body cream. Are all these products safe to use? Well isn’t that the job of companies to do proper testing before selling them to the public? You may be shocked to know that you will have to do your own homework and research to see what is safe and isn’t. It’s kind of like food, the grocery store has so many options but it’s up to you to decide what is healthy and what isn’t. The things to look for in a “clean” product is something non-toxic. Words like paraben free and natural are good signs. You might think, “oh those products don’t work as well” but we are seeing more and more companies switching to cleaner ingredient lists. Boscia is a great example of a brand of clean products that still delivers great results. Remember what you put in your mouth is just as vital as what you are slathering on your skin. Don’t throw out all your products just yet, but try to switch over to cleaner ones over time.
