I like my products how I like my Everything…..

NON-TOXIC

5 years ago I would eat an organic strawberry and wanted to focus on eating clean, but then I would cover my face and body head to toe with products that were not clean. But I honestly did not know any different.

Do you want your food to be free of harsh chemicals? Then you will want your other products to be free of harsh chemicals for the same reasons. Back then I didn’t have the proper information but I want you to learn about the proper info and don’t worry I will help guide you! It doesn’t have to be a crazy overwhelming mountain to climb.

I want you to make informed choices. It is hard because when I was a teenager and looking at magazine that I was devouring monthly, I was constantly fed that beauty is everything, its how you would get your crush to talk to you ( cough cough my high school crush was Shawn even back then!) I believed that I would be worthy in high school if I had flawless skin and hid that pimple flawlessly. These have gone sooooo deeply into me that even 15 years later I still have that voice in my head. But now I tell that voice to F * Off!

I am beautiful with or without makeup.

If you want to wear makeup again it comes back to your intention. Like my post about physical fitness. Are you wearing makeup because you like to creativeness and fun! Or are you wanting to cover your face and hide the real you because of fear? Maybe take a moment to reflect on why you use makeup on your body?

…..

Let’s talk about why you want to break up with your beloved beauty products

So there is a consequence of using products that are not clean, you can be clogging your pores on your face or the internal effects that we might not see. Your system can get overloaded from the built-up toxins.

Did you know that products that you apply ON top of your skin are then absorbed through your skin, naturally? Your skin is the largest organ on your body and it does a LOT for us! You can support your body’s health and wellness buy minimizing the toxins that we expose it to.

For example, think about this. When you get ready in the morning, you shower, wash your hair, body and face, then after what products do you use to get ready? (including hair products, your makeup etc)

Let’s say in each of those products you have 5 ingredients that would be considered toxic… quickly doing some math how much would that add up to? Before when I thought about it my number was mega alarming!

Not All Products are Created Equally

Sadly the beauty industry isn’t very regulated. Makeup can be filled with toxins such as lead, parabens, bismuth, endocrine-disrupting phthalates, and other harsh chemicals, they can also get absorbed into your body!

Well, I Wanna Wear Makeup So what do I Use?

I have switched over to Savvy Minerals Makeup I stopped using all the other products. I took a hard look at the products that I was using before and then I read up on the ingredients and the effects on my health. I also considered our environment as well. There is a lot of cleaner makeup available but finding it isn’t as easy as seeing “CLEAN MAKEUP” Or “GREEN MAKEUP” or even “ORGANIC” you are going to have to do some research and some digging.

Things to keep in Mind:

It doesn’t happen overnight. When I really started my ditch and switch I started with my shower products. And it was HARD to switch!
There was makeup that I still held onto! It will take some time it doesn’t happen overnight!
Set a goal, my first serious break up with chemicals was my shower products and I thought I was buying clean products but sadly I was duped and greenwashed! Set a SMART GOAL.
Research and search on the EGG.org or the Think Dirty App this can help you get some insight What I did is I looked at my products and the ratings and then I immediately stopped using any of the products rated 6 and up. And I had some very expensive products that were rated very high on the scale. I was so so shocked!
Switch things out. As I worked through my stock I would run out of a product and then I switched it out. Sometimes it is not realistic to clear the slate and buy EVERYTHING all knew. then each month I added to my order a new product. Foundation, bronzer, blush, one step at a time. YOU GOT THIS!
There are resources available! If you would like to attend a Savvy Minerals Makeup Class let me know! We have complimentary online classes for you!

Why I love Savvy Minerals:

it is mineral makeup that is formulated with clean ingredients and without fillers. those fillers in the other makeup often have talc, which is proven as a carcinogenic. (talc is also in baby powder this is so heartbreaking!)
Savvy Minerals is made with non-nanoparticle minerals. This means the minerals are not small enough to get into your cells and bloodstream where they can potentially cause damage. so we have clean ingredients that still can’t get into our bloodstream. Also, this doesn’t clog your pores on your face!
Cruelty-Free and Vegan makeup! YES Calling all vegetarians and vegans!!!! The only product that is not vegan is the lipsticks that are made with beeswax.
Quick and Easy application
Build the layers up for your desired look! I love that I can play around with my creativity as well!
I mix and play I mix the foundation powders depending on my skin shade
Points back yes, please! Then I can buy more shades!
