Natural Beauty Products: BeautyCounter



I just got some great new products to try out!  They are from a new beauty line called BeautyCounter. BeautyCounter's mission (which can be read here: BeautyCounter Mission) is basically to create awareness of what we're putting on our skin (see "more info" below) and to create safe and effective products.  Their products are all natural, non-toxic, organic, and vegan! Formulated without parabens, phthalates, synthetic fragrances PEGs (polyethylene glycol), SLS (sodium lauryl sulfate), or secrets.
Recently, I've been using the RoseWater Uplifting Spray and the Everyday AM Hydrating Cream.  I've used the other products in the past and love them all!

On the box:  A botanical elixir of organic rose essence, citrus, and rosemary revitalizes. Sodium hyaluranate promotes skin hydration and a dewy glow.   
Extra Benefits: Closes pores, calms anxiety, lightens redness, hydrates skin, helps skin absorb Lustro Face Oils, cools you off (you can keep in fridge or cooler!), helps condition and add shine to your hair if sprayed on!                                                     
My two cents: The RoseWater spray is a wonderful pick-me-up, especially in the summer heat.  It has a light rose scent, that fades quickly (for those of you not big on scents, like me).  It doesn't mess with your make-up, either, so you can use it whenever!  Mine currently lives in my purse.                                                                                
Ingredients: Water, rosa domascena water, ethylhexylgelycerin, sodium hyaluronate, phenoxyethanol.



On the box: A lightweight cream with organic coconut oil and aloe to hydrate skin. Acai berry, pomegranate, lavender, and chamomile soothe and refresh. 
My two cents: The AM Hydrating cream is by far the best moisturizer I've used in ages.  I was always an Aveeno girl, but lately it seemed to be drying me out.  I tried some other products, but of course they made my sensitive skin breakout (story of my life).  This cream has completely renewed moisture to my face.  After just two days of use, I can really tell a difference.  It is light-weight, alcohol free, and my new best friend!

Ingredients: Water, caprylic/capric triglyceride, aloe barbadensis leaf extract, glycerin, glyceryl stearate, coconut oil, cetearyl olivate, cetearyl glucoside, cetearyl alcohol, lavender extract, acai extract, pomegranate extract, safflower seed oil, bisabolol, sorbitan olivate, panthenol, beta clucan, hydrolyzed vegetable protein, hydrogenated lecithin, xanthan gum, maltodextrin, xylitol, sodium hyaluronate, allantoin, phenoxyethanol, ethylhexylglycerin.

This is just a glimpse at the BeautyCounter Lineup.  They recently came out with a kids’ line and are planning to release a make-up line soon!

Just so you know, I gain nothing by promoting this product.  I choose to tell you about it because I think what they're doing is important. There are lots of natural skin care products out there that you can try and I hope to review more of them for you.  Did you know, 1938 was the last year the US federal government passed a law to govern cosmetics safety and protect the people who use them?  Just think about how much more we know now about cancer-causing toxins!
