New Year.....New Products

Let's start out the new year by swapping out some of your chemical ridden products for some chemical free products. I know change isn't easy. I would still be using my St. Ives Apricot Scrub I used in middle school if I could. Below are some easy products to swap out. I know some of you might not have the time, patience, or interest in making your own products and that's totally okay. There are a lot of things you can swap out with products found at your local grocery store or even from your own kitchen. Every little bit helps. Now let's get swapping...

A.M. Facial Moisturizer - swap it out for jojoba oil

Face wash/cleanser/gel - swap it out for Beautycounter's charcoal cleansing bar

Toner - swap it out for witch hazel

Face Mask - swap it out for baking soda. Make a paste with baking soda and water. Apply to clean skin and let sit for 10 minutes. Rinse with warm water.

P.M. Facial Moisturizer - swap it out for apricot oil, grapeseed oil, or almond oil

Bar Soap - swap it out for Dr Bronner bar soap

Body Wash - swap it out for Dr Bronner liquid soap

Body Scrub - swap it out for Epsom salt. Mix 1/2 cup Epsom salt with 1/4 cup olive oil and scrub skin in the shower

Body Lotion - swap it out with coconut oil

Shampoo and Conditioner - swap it out for some chemical free options like Acure OrganicsShea MoistureJuice Organics

So cheers to the new year, new products, and less chemicals!
