Hey mama! Let’s talk about your daily skincare routine! Do you have one?
If you actually have a skincare routine, hooray! Making time for self-care is one the of the biggest challenges for mommies so high-5 to you for prioritizing yourself!
And if you don’t have a skincare routine, you are not alone! So many mommies get bogged down by jampacked schedules and constant family demands. It’s a challenge to take care of yourself when you’re responsible for other people!
The unfortunate reality for us, though, is that skin doesn’t lie. It’s your body’s largest, most visible organ and it tells the world when you’re stressed, tired, dehydrated, or aging (EEK!). So if you want the skin on your face to be glowing and radiant, you have to take care of it!
I must admit that until recently, my skin had gotten basically zero love. I’m talking maybe wash it once a day if I remembered and wasn’t too tired. It just seemed like such a hassle and I honestly wasn’t motivated enough to start a consistent routine.
That all changed when a mama that I know from my teaching days, Kristy, reached out to chat with me about Beautycounter. I’d heard of Beautycounter in passing, but I’m not a big makeup person so I never bothered to do any research. Kristy mentioned how life-changing their skincare products have been for her and that really piqued my interest. She’s one of the smartest, most naturally gorgeous people I know (and also a busy mommy of two young kiddos), so of course, I had to hear more!
What I learned is that Beautycounter makes skincare and beauty products that are both effective and healthy for your body! When formulating their products, Beautycounter manages to avoid 1500 harmful or questionable chemicals that are regularly found in skincare and cosmetics. They also aim to educate and inform shoppers on how to best care for their bodies. As a company, Beautycounter is even currently lobbying for the entire beauty industry to better regulate the chemicals used in the products we put on our skin so that consumers are not exposed to unsafe ingredients.
Being a mommy, Beautycounter spoke to me because all of their products are clean and safe for the whole family. Whether you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, or snuggling with your precious little ones, you can rest assured that neither of you are being exposed to any unnecessary chemicals.
What I also appreciate about Beautycounter is that they offer complete skincare collections with complementary products so that it’s easy to create a well-rounded daily skincare routine. You don’t have to do any extra work because all of the products you need are already bundled together. Below is a peek at some of their collections or you can view complete descriptions of each product on their website!
If you struggle with knowing what products are best for your specific skin type, Kristy can help with that, too. She has a special quiz designed to target your needs and concerns so that you can pinpoint which skincare routine is right for you.
Based on my skin, which is oily and sensitive, I tried their Countercontrol Collection and it was perfect! Everything has a super fresh, natural scent and left my face feeling clean and soft. It literally takes a few minutes and you’ll love how easy it is to use the products together.
