Clean Beauty for Spring

Clean Beauty for Spring

For the past four years, I have loved using products from Beautycounter, a clean + safe cosmetics and skincare company on a mission to make people more aware of the products that we put on our bodies!  Did you know that the beauty industry is virtually unregulated?  Did you know that beauty companies can legally put any ingredient into your beauty products, including harmful ingredients just because there are not any laws against it?

Well we at Beautycounter wants to change that!  We are the leading company in America when it comes to transparency (we reveal everything in our products and you can research for yourself that they are not harmful!), safety as well as performance (so basically they are not just clean, they actually work too, which is rare in my experience!).  Just like how I am passionate about eating whole foods, feeding my body well, and living an active lifestyle, I believe clean and safer beauty lines up with that perfectly.

Having said all that, the products are pretty incredible too!  I have loved using them, I did not want to sell for a long time and then I realized, what if I could really make a business of this?  What if every time Tim goes on a work trip, I could go with him and work freelance?   What if when we have babies, I can be working from home and promoting a brand that is healthy for their little bodies too?  I wish I joined earlier.  This is such a great business opportunity and I hope all of you consider it!  I am so proud of what I do and the products that Beautycounter creates, because they are clean, beautiful, cruelty free, environmentally friendly, and they work impressively well!

Here are my Top 5 favorites for Spring:

I think If you are going to snag any 5 Beauty products for Spring, these are your must haves!

Let me tell you why in order!

1. Countermatch Line Pure Calm Cleansing Milk ($32)

This is the newest product for the countermarch line.  This is my very favorite line!  It balances the moisture in your skin.  No matter what skin type you have, the products in this line adjust to your skin and works with your skin to keep you hydrated all day long..  If you are interested in the entire line, you can buy that too (only $200 for 6 products!) but if you have to choose one cleanser for the next few months, this is my go to!  Just so you know, the entire countermarch line (including the cleanser) harnesses the life-giving properties from plants and has ingredients such as squalane, arginine + physic acid, giving your skin a luminous, vibrant + natural glow.

2. Tint Skin Hydrating Foundation ($42)

I am willing to bet that this creamy foundation will beat any foundation you are already using and it is way better for your skin.  This one is a best seller because it is not a tinted moisturizer, it is foundation that feels like a tinted moisturizer, but you only have to use a tiny bit to get the airbrushed look that you are after and it lasts all day long.  This hydrating formula actually heals your skin too, it does not just sit on top of it.  I am telling you, it is liquid gold and I have used it for years and only have to buy about one tube a year!  So this really is amazing stuff!

3. Plumping Facial Mist ($36 for the larger size, this is the mini that comes in our spa sets)

I love this facial mist, it actually promotes plump, firm skin because Beautycounter uses Peony plant extracts in it!  I love putting this on top of my makeup or under.

4. Color Pinch Cream Blusher in ($38)

So when I first got this stuff, I did not think I would use it, but I love how it goes on your cheeks and makes them look like they are glowing from the inside out and that is your natural color.  If you are anything like me, you like natural looking makeup that highlights what God has already given you and doesn't cause acne and blemishes while it is on your face all day. This little girly does the trick.  Feels creamy, and looks poppy.  Plus: a little goes a long way!

5. Lip Gloss in Dahlia ($29)

This lil baby is my go-to lip gloss for Spring!  It is the perfect color, adds a little pop but isn't way too much.  I love this one, I love it so much I want to share it with you!  Everyone who orders in the month of April will be entered in a giveaway to win on Beautycounter Lip color of their choosing on me!  I do a giveaway gift every month and I am so excited to share this amazing lip gloss with you!  These lip glosses are made with carnauba wax to hydrant your lips and give them long lasting moisture.  They also smell like vanilla.  SO yummy and amazing!

I hope this was fun learning a little bit more about the products I am using lately!  You can shop my website right here:
