switch to safer skin care + make-up
I am Really lucky to have found a company like Beautycounter.
Since becoming a Health Coach in 2013, I have been on the constant search for products that are safe yet effective for me and for my family. Often times I have been left disappointed by lack of performance. Other times the prices were exhorbitant. That search became exhausting.
Fast forward to 2017; I learned of Beautycounter, their mission, and their products. The ingredients met with my high standards, but I thought 'no way' they would work. I was wrong. The first Beautycounter product I tried was a lip sheer. That is when my love affair with Beautycounter began.
**Beautycounter's mission: To get safer products into the hands of everyone.**
We live in a toxic world, and although we cannot control so much of the environment around us, we can control what we put in and on our bodies.
Beautycounter's mission aligns with mine. Their makeup and skincare lines are clean, high-performing and gorgeous. Their products deliver nutrients, stimulate skin cells, remove toxins and feed your skin. All while revealing your beauty!
They only use pure essential oils to naturally scent their products.

I'm new to safer make-up and overwhelmed. Where should I start?

What are your absolute 'must have' products?
- Although I love everything, I must say my go-to favorites are the following:
- Dew Skin Tinted Moisturizer - My top pick. I cannot go A DAY without it! Not only is this a tinted moisturizer with SPF 20, it provides your skin with a dewy gorgeous glow. Enfused with nutrients to promote firmness and brightness, this one is a must have!
- Touch Up Skin Concealor Pen - Firmer, brighter skin for under eyes, to cover imperfections and to highlight. Can use it with your Skin Twin, Dew Skin, or alone! Tip: I like to get one shade lighter than my foundation shade for an even more luminous look.
- Lip Sheer - This is the product that got me hooked on Beautycounter. My lips have never felt so soft and hydrated! The sheers are exactly as they sound; sheer. Totally buildable depending on the level of color you want. My favorite shades are Plum, Currant, Orchard and Lilly. But they are all FABULOUS. See for yourself!
- Precision Liquid Eye Liner - Easy to use with safer ingredients. What's not to love?
- Volumizing Mascara - I love a good mascara! What I don't love is all the chemicals of the conventional brands. Beautycounter is the only company who has a safe alternative! It's like they baked a cake with no flour, no eggs and no dairy. A revolutionary product I can get behind.
- Lotus Glow Cleansing Balm - Our multi-tasking cleansing balm has so many uses! Hydrates as it cleanses, removes make-up and impurties, nourishes skin as a facial mask, use as lip balm, soothes wind and sun burns, and much more!
- CounterTime Line - This is our anti-aging line helping to keep your skin looking smooth and supple! Featuring our plant-derived Retinatural Complex, this collection is designed to visibly firm, brighten, and plump the skin.
