Make the Switch to Safer Products
Cancer. Disease. Auto-Immune Disorders.
I often wonder why it seems that these issues seem to be running rampant through our friend circles, through our own families. It’s real, and it’s scary. No wonder my anxiety gets the best of me sometimes. It seems we all know someone going through something health-related that is terrible. Why?!
Cancers caused by genes, known as familial cancers, account for only two to five percent of all cancers. That means the majority of cancers are environmental… fed by your habits, what you’re surrounded by and what you put in and on your body.
Am I a 100% crunchy, organic, gluten free, dairy free, non-alcohol drinking vegan? No, and I’m not claiming to be. But the fact of the matter is, I try to make the healthy choice when proposed with options.
The products I use on my skin and body, and my kids’ skin and bodies? You better believe I’ve made the switch to safer. When I cross one giant thing off the list that’s going to cause disease, I call that a step in the right direction. We shouldn’t have to wonder if the products we use are going contribute to major health issues and that’s why Beautycounter is so diligent about advocating for change in our country. But until then, please know you can trust the skincare, makeup, sunscreen, shampoo and body products that #Beautycounter produces for you and your family, having banned over 1500 ingredients that we KNOW are bad. Just for comparison’s sake, the US has only banned 30. 😕
