I’ve Never Been Happier with my Skin – A Beautycounter Review

I’ve been using Beautycounter products for a year now, and I have never been happier with my skin! I never disliked my skin before, but I cannot emphasize how much I love my skin now–no more dryness (unlike last winter), no more acne (at least very infrequently), less redness, smaller pores, and overall much brighter skin.

I’ll put it out there. Yes, I’m a Beautycounter consultant, but I am not one to rave about a product if I don’t stand behind it. I am usually pretty skeptical and don’t expect a lot from something before I try it, but my expectations with Beautycounter products have been blown out of the water.

Not only do I love the products, but I also love the Beautycounter mission: To get safer products into the hands of everyone. I love what they are doing to try and change congressional regulation on beauty products as there is currently very little regulation and laws on what can be put into these products. I could have joined a multitude of other companies, but I am glad to be a part of this one.

No makeup. No filter.

All of the skin care regiment includes Beautycounter products, and about 75% of my makeup is from Beautycounter. You can see a breakdown of my morning and evening skin care regimen in this post. I also shared two makeup routines I do: one that is a quick 5 minute routine and one that is a full face of makeup. Find that blog post here.

Now that I’ve been with Beautycounter for a year, I’ve gotten in the habit of checking the labels of my skin care and makeup products just like I regularly check labels on my food products. The two toxic chemicals I look for first are parabens and artificial colors, which are shockingly in a lot of different products.

It has taken me several months to swap out most of my products, but I feel much better about using Beautycounter products as they go through a rigorous, independent testing for unsafe ingredients. Now you, too, can swap out your unclean beauty products for safer alternatives with the help of Beautycounter’s Clean Swap initiative.

Right now through March 7th, Beautycounter is offering a FREE deluxe-sized item when you purchase any of the following items that are part of the Clean Swap. (Click on the link to be taken to each item’s page.)

Hydrating Body Lotion – no mineral oil that is potentially toxic
Lip Sheers – no artificial flavors

There are several other safer products through Beautycounter including items for kids and babies, as well as sunscreen, body wash, and makeup products.

Hi, I'm Michelle

I love running around the lakes of Minnesota, running after my two boys, and racing anything from the 5K to the marathon. I have been blogging here since 2010 when I ran my first marathon. I finally secured my sub-3 hour marathon after trying for 8 years.
