When I was growing up, my parents had an organic garden and we survived most of the year off of those vegetables. So early on, I learned the importance of eating whole, healthy foods. My mother even ground her own whole wheat flour for her breads and cookies. You will read more about my health and fitness journey in other blogs, but there was a time that I strayed from true holistic living with my diet. I was exercising like a beast, but not eating in the healthiest of ways. It’s true, you can’t outwork a bad diet. As I grew older I began to pay more attention to my diet and the foods I was eating and continued my workouts. But I never thought about what I was putting on my skin, my largest organ. I was uneducated on the ingredients in our personal care products and how harmful they are. As I began on my journey to become a Holistic Health Coach last year, I discovered a safer skin care company called Beautycounter. Beautycounter offers skin care and personal care products without harmful or toxic ingredients. Currently, the United States only bans 30 harmful ingredients. Beautycounter bans over 1,500! Our founder and CEO Gregg Renfrew says it best when she says WE ALL DESERVE BETTER! Everyone deserves safer products without having to play detective to find out if the ingredient list is possibly linked to cancer or other diseases. With Beautycounter, you have a choice. You are in control of what you put on your skin and your family’s skin. I’d love to share with you samples and help you start making small changes for better health. Message me and I can get you started or visit my website for more information.
