BeautyCounter

We pay close attention to the ingredients in our food but what about the ingredients in the things we are putting on our skin? There are only 30 banned chemicals in personal care products out of almost 1 million .

These harsh chemicals not only do damage to your skin over time but they take a toll on the endocrine system. This is HUGE for women because the endocrine system is responsible for almost all hormone release and regulation. Not only that but it helps maintain your normal levels of happiness, hunger, desire, and fat storage. If that’s not enough, these chemicals also disrupt detox pathways in the liver (which detoxes and metabolizes literally everything you put into your body).

Beautycounter focuses on safer skin care that is free of over 20 of the most harmful products that are found in most skin care and sun screens.

If you think your diet and exercise are on point but you’re still struggling with things like acne, depression, anxiety, insomnia or weight loss, check the products you’re using on your skin to see if they include things like Benzalkonium Chloride, Butylatedhydroxy Anisole and Butylated Hydroxytoluene, Formaldehyde, Parabens (methyl-, isobutyl-, propyl- and others), Retinyl palmitate and Retinol (Vitamin A), Synthetic flavor or fragrance and Triclosan and Triclocarban. Then, check out beautycounter and feel good about your products and your skin!
