Friday Favorites: Beautycounter Skincare Products
Hey guys! This Friday for our "Friday Favorites" I am doing a special feature on a few of my favorite skincare products from a site called Beautycounter, a beauty brand that actually puts health first. Their products are safe and effective, unlike many products out there. I had been looking for a healthy skin care routine for some time, and I'm so thankful that I found this line of products! I know many brides out there are looking for ways to make sure their skin is at its very best for the big day, so wanted to share amazing company this with you!
“We seek out ingredients that are safe, functional and will work together to create a high performing product. Every Beautycounter product is safe, effective and beautiful.”
“Decades of studies indicate that serious health issues (including, but not limited to asthma, learning disabilities, cancer and infertility) are on the rise, and due in some part to our ongoing exposure to toxic chemicals—whether it’s in the shower, on our commute, while we eat lunch at a local restaurant, or when we clean our kitchens at home. There are more than 80,000 chemicals on the market today. Many don’t have any safety data. This is particularly true of those used in the skin care and beauty industry. Only about 10% of the 10,000 chemicals commonly found in personal care products have safety data.”
I started using these products a few months ago, and I can't imagine using anything else! My skin is super sensitive, and I love knowing that I'm being good to my skin and not throwing a ton of chemicals on it every day, which is what I've been doing all the time up until now.
I currently use:
"The secret? Organic coconut oil simultaneously removes buildup while moisturizing and softening skin. Witch hazel adds a toning effect while aloe hydrates—so skin feels fresh and smooth, never overly dry. Infused with botanical extracts like geranium, lavender and antioxidant-rich green tea to help promote healthy-looking skin. A light citrus scent (from a blend of essential oils) is sure to refresh any routine."
This light, unscented face cream is easily absorbed for daytime use, so it's perfect alone or under makeup. Richly hydrating thanks to a mix of organic coconut oil, safflower oil and aloe, our paraben-free formula locks in moisture without a greasy feel. Pure botanicals like antioxidant-rich açai berry, lavender, and pomegranate extracts, help support healthier-looking skin.
Our Gentle Exfoliator Polishing Cream sweeps away dead cells and impurities to uncover fresh, glowing skin. Non-abrasive jojoba beads provide gentle exfoliation while organic coconut oil conditions and soothes skin. Hydrating aloe nourishes even the most sensitive skin types, while a mix of botanical extracts—like geranium, lavender and green tea—support skin's health. Meadowfoam seed oil delivers essential fatty acids and vitamin E (essentials for a radiant-looking complexion). Lightly scented with citrus essential oils.
Aloe and organic coconut oil provide mineral-rich hydration, while geranium, lavender, and green tea extracts soothe and balance skin. Never heavy or greasy, this formula softens and brightens the appearance of the area around your eyes. It's also unscented, so it's perfect for sensitive skin types.
