Nightly Skin Care Routine

September 15, 2017September 14, 2017Leave a comment

If I could go back in time, I would tell my teenage self to take better care of my skin.

It’s taken most of my twenties to get a grip on how important it is to take care of my skin. Gone are the nights of being lazy and not washing my makeup off. And thankfully so.

Part of the reason I was so bad at skin care bring my teen years, besides laziness, was nothing ever worked for me. I literally tried everything.

Prescription creams and acne medicines didn’t do much. And over-the-counter face wash and toner was a joke.

Back in April, I took a chance and tried a few Beautycounter products. And it changed everything. My skin has never looked better.

So I wanted to share my nightly skin care routine.

Step one.

I wash my face with the Nourishing Cream Cleanser. It’s mild and gives the perfect amount of moisture to my skin. And it takes all my makeup off.

Step two.

Rejuvenating Toner Pads deep clean my skin, clear out my pores and lighten dark spots and freckles from sun damage.

Step three.

The Nourishing Day Cream is lightweight and doesn’t over-moisturize my oily skin. It’s fragrance free so no irritation happens, which I love.

Step four, the final step.

The Nourishing Eye Cream is perfect for deeply moisturizing delicate eye skin. Just a little dab under both eyes is all it takes.

Beautycounter has changed my life for the better. I love every product I’ve tried, and I love that the company has a mission to get safer products to everyone.

Beautycounter+ Labor Day Weekend Special

September 4, 2017September 2, 2017Leave a comment

I’ve been using my Beautycounter+ Balancing and Charcoal Spa Set once a week since I became a consultant in July.

I’m prone to breakouts so I was really excited to try the charcoal mask to see if it would give my skin a little something extra. And I can say, without a doubt, my skin has never looked better.

The Spa Set comes with three amazing products: the facial mask, the facial mist and the facial oil.

I was pretty nervous about using the oil since I have naturally oily skin, but it has become a luxury item I use once a week.

So what makes the facial oil different from other stuff out there?

Lightweight and silky smooth, our proprietary blend of seven natural oils moisturizes, smooths, and helps even skin tone. Softening meadowfoam seed oil restores balance, while wild chamomile calms and soothes skin. The No. 3 Facial Oil is so wonderful.

Why is this important?

Childhood Cancer Awareness Month

September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.

My most favorite kid Asher Ray has been fighting Ewing’s Sarcoma since she was three years old. She will turn nine in October. Ewing’s is a rare type of bone cancer. She has fought the most beautiful fight with the most grace and patience I’ve ever seen from anyone. She is the strongest person I know. (Her parents are close seconds.)

Every September we advocate for Childhood Cancer Awareness. We need a cure. This child deserves a cure. All the children deserve a cure. And we will fight to get one.

This month I will donating all of the income from my Beautycounter business to the American Childhood Cancer Organization of Arkansas in honor of Bit’s fight. Beautycounter and fighting childhood cancer go hand-in-hand. The mission of Beautycounter is to get safer skin care and beauty products into the hands of everyone.

Some of the things found in our personal care products are known carcinogens, meaning they are known to cause cancer. With skin being the largest organ of our bodies, it seems like a no-brainer to want to take care of it. But here’s the thing…there is little to no regulation on what companies can put or not put into your personal care and beauty products. Words like “fragrance” are used to hide whatever carcinogens, hormone disruptors or irritants companies need to hide.

We deserve better than that as consumers.

Finding Beautycounter was a total turning point for me. Learning I could make better choices about what I put on my face and body makes me happy, and the products are high performing and high quality.

My goal for September is to get safer products for you so I can donate my commissions to an organization that is near and dear to my heart.

To get yourself some Beautycounter products, check out my Website. I will be giving away some really awesome stuff throughout the month. So be sure to watch for it on my Facebook page.

Skin Care with Integrity

August 27, 2017Leave a comment

I’ve always been one of those people that want more out of stuff.

A good skin care regime has eluded me for years. During my teens and early twenties, I fought acne. Nothing seemed to work for me. I took every medicine known to fight it, and I tried every cream to find clear skin.

When I heard about Beautycounter, I felt like it was different. Not only was it a beauty and skin care company, it was a mission based company working towards getting safer products into the hands of everyone.

With little regulation in our personal care products, major companies are allowed to put nearly anything in our makeup and skin care products. Fragrance being the ultimate “hiding place” for known carcinogens and toxic chemicals. But because it is listed on the ingredient label as fragrance and the lack of regulation, those toxic things do not have to be defined at all. Scary, huh?

Beautycounter changed everything for me. I found safer products that worked at a high standard. I love that the company worked to create safer products that didn’t feel granola.

This stuff works. I have loved every product I’ve tried. So much so that I became a consultant.

If I found products that work for me, that I love, that are within my budget, why not take the leap of faith to work toward getting more people safer products. My family and friends safer products. As much as it is about me and my love of Beautycounter, it’s also about me sharing it with other people. Educating people about the subpar beauty industry we currently participate in. Sharing safer, high performing products with people I know and love.

It’s so much bigger than me. So much bigger than a tube of mascara. It’s about demanding better. Demanding more as a consumer. Learning the why behind it.

Ask me why I chose Beautycounter over everything else. Ask me why it’s different. Ask me why it works for me.
