No.197: Safe Skincare // My First Experience with Beautycounter

I received free product in exchange for a review, but as always, all opinions are my own.


UPDATE: This week Beautycounter’s Black Friday Sale is 15% OFF sitewide, and FREE shipping on orders over $50. It’s a great time to try clean beauty for yourself or gift to a loved one! My friend Stephanie is offering my readers an additional $10 coupon on top of the Black Friday sales when you shop through her website!  Happy shopping!

I blame my dear blog friend Stephanie for my latest rabbit hole.  She recommended a book called Estrogeneration and oh my word, it’s both fascinating and slightly terrifying!  I’m working through it in small chunks, but it’s already made me very conscious about what products I’m using and what I choose to buy going forward.  (This is a separate, but good article that touches on some of things I’m learning in the book.)  

Anyway, Steph recently became a Beautycounter Consultant and offered to let me try a few of their most popular products.  With my new knowledge of the dangers in American skincare from Estrogeneration, I jumped at the chance to try!  I was also excited because with all of the hormonal craziness going on with me right now, my face is a mess.  I have faithfully used the products for the past three weeks and I’m already a fan.  I tried the Cleansing Balm, the Adaptive Moisture Lotion, the Brightening Facial Oil and the Balancing Facial Mask.  While it hasn’t taken away all of my acne yet, I do see an improvement.  And my skin is so soft!  I’m impressed.  

A few other interesting things to note about Beautycounter:
+ They are a full disclosure company and every ingredient is on every label.
+ Over 1,500 chemicals and toxins have been banned from their products.
+ The company’s ultimate goal is high performance without compromise. They stand by the promise that their products really work!   

The four products I tried are all paired in a Holiday Kit for a limited time and would make a gorgeous gift for Christmas.  (Or put it on your own Christmas list!)  The bottles are beautiful and because you only use a small amount each time, they last for awhile.  Definitely worth the investment.

One more thing: if you mention The Big White Farmhouse sent you, Steph will give my readers a shipping refund on your first order.  You can shop here.  I can’t wait to hear what you choose!
