1042. Toxic Ingredients to AVOID in Everyday Cosmetics w/ Thrive Causemetics Founder Karissa Bodnar
Hey, Heal Squad! Thrive Causemetics CEO & Founder Karissa Bodnar is back for Part 2 of our conversation and its BEAUTY PACKED! Karissa opens up about the challenges of launching Thrive Causemetics, how Dave Asprey’s Bulletproof played a key role in her journey, and why staying independent is crucial to her brand’s mission. We’re also diving deep into clean beauty—what truly makes a product "clean,” the hidden toxic ingredients we should ditch ASAP, and safe alternatives that actually work. Karissa also breaks down a 7-minute clean beauty routine and shares her best-ever brow hacks to get flawless, natural brows in no time! But that’s not all, Karissa gives us the inside scoop on what’s next for Thrive, including innovations for eliminating gray hair and stretch marks (YES, REALLY!). Plus, she’s got a special surprise just for our Heal Squad! Tune in now—you don’t want to miss this one!
Giveaway Details: Enter to win The Ultimate Self-Care Giveaway from Thrive Causemetics and Heal Squad beginning March 13, 2025 on the Heal Squad Instagram - @healsquad. Giveaway ends March 19, 2025 at 10:30 am PST!
HEALERS & HEAL LINERS:
Eliminating Toxic Ingredients: Thrive Causemetics is committed to removing harmful ingredients as new scientific research emerges. They never include parabens, sulfates, and petrochemicals in their products and work with oncologists like Dr Elizabeth Comen to make products safe and effective.
Use Clean Ingredients: Find products with ingredients like coconut oil and derivatives of coconut oil, like caprylic acid which creates hydrations and a really nice cushiony feel to a lip gloss.
Clean Beauty Fast Routine: Use a tinted sunscreen as both sun protection and a light foundation alternative & Thrive’s Triple Threat Color Stick for cheeks, eyes, and lips.
