What’s Inside Your Makeup Bag? Let’s Talk Ingredient Transparency

In a world where we’re finally becoming more mindful about what we put into our bodies, it’s time to start thinking the same way about what we put on our bodies. If you’re someone who cares about choosing the best foods to nourish your health, why not do the same when it comes to your makeup and skincare?

The Hidden Ingredients in Traditional Beauty Products

Did you know the average woman uses around 12 beauty products a day? That’s a lot of lotions, potions, and makeup! But here’s the catch: many of these skincare and beauty products contain a mix of synthetic chemicals that our skin absorbs. Ingredients like parabens, phthalates, formaldehyde, and synthetic fragrances are some of the common ones that show up in conventional beauty products. And while we’re using these products to look and feel our best, some of these ingredients have been linked to things like hormone disruption, skin irritation, and other long-term health concerns.

It’s easy to overlook what’s in our beauty products, but making small changes can have a big impact on our health. That’s why ingredient transparency is so important!
