By now, you know how much I LOVE finding new #CleanBeauty products. Even more so, I love finding clean beauty companies. But recently I got duped and let me tell you what happened.
Without naming names, I purchased some handsoap from Whole Food’s from a reputable company that promotes utilizing safe ingredients. I don’t typically buy there handsoap but I was in a rush and needed to grab something. So I saw the brand and made the purchase.
When I got home, out of curiosity, I used my Think Dirty app to find out their rating. If you don’t know what Think Dirty is, its an app that allows you to scan a products bar code and it tells you on a scale of 1-10 how safe the ingredients are.
So I went ahead and scanned the bar code only to find that a pretty high score which was NOT good. Yet other products of theirs rated pretty low. I was so confused and felt duped. Lesson learned: Check each and every product and don’t just rely on a brand making clean ingredient representations.
With that being said, I have found a brand that I LOVE and I know for a fact using safe ingredients for EACH AND EVERY one of their products. PRIMALLY PURE!
So I wanted to round up for you 3 products that you should check out for Spring.
- BUG SPRAY: Spring nights are back. After dinner walks to the park. BBQ outside. And of course – the bugs! The natural mosquito repellent is made with nourishing + non-toxic ingredients. It is made free of DEET and full of organic ingredients that repel bugs! The full ingredient list includes: Witch Hazel*, Distilled Water, Fractionated Coconut Oil, Sunflower Oil*, Castor Oil*, Essential Oils of Citronella*, Cedarwood*, Lemongrass*, Rosemary*, Geranium*, Peppermint* and Wintergreen*. #CleanIngredientsForTheWin
2. Charcoal Deodorant: The weather is heating up which means your going to be sweating ALOT more. LIKE ALOT. If I take my workout outside, I usually end up reapplying my deodorant which means it better be full of safe ingredients. My go to deodorant is this Primally Pure charcoal deodorant. If you want to know the UGLY TRUTH about your conventional drug store deodorant, head over to Primally Pure to read their shocking blog post.
3. Everything Spray: I don’t know about you but I love the spring because it finally means you can be out and about all the time. NJ winters are brutal and we patiently await spring. The Everything Spray is so helpful when I’m going to be out of the house all day because just as its name implies, this spray has SO MANY USES. You can use it as a toner, or spritz it on sensitive parts of your skin, or as a quick refresher after an outside workout. It is super anti-inflammatory so really helpful in a pinch.

Happy Spring! xo Erica
