How to Choose Clean Makeup Brands

Choosing safe and healthy makeup Is harder than it should be - let's simplify it! We all know that generic, drug-store makeup is full of toxins and things that are not good for our skin or for the world. But even makeup that is labeled as "clean", "organic", or "non-toxic" can have hidden chemicals that affect our health and hormones. In this episode, we talk about how to research product ingredients, ingredients to look for and avoid, and which products I like for both safe ingredients and great performance.

In this episode, you will learn more about:

• Which chemicals to look out for and why
• How even certified products can end up with forever chemicals (PFAS)
• Great products that work well and are made with ethical and safe ingredients

Bands mentioned in this episode:

• Yuka App
• Aisling Organics
• Fit Glow Beauty
• Crunchi $10 off coupon
• Rejuva Minerals (liked ingredients, but had PFAS)

Chemicals & ingredients mentioned in this episode:

• Phenoxythanol
• Cyclopentasiloxane
• Dioxins
• Petroleum
• Polybutene
• MOSHS
• Polyethylene:
• Fragrance
• Talc
