Since your skin is the largest organ in the body, the toxins it absorbs can cause sensitivities, allergies, cancer, birth defects and other serious health issues. This is important to note when transitioning to a non-toxic beauty routine because what we use is essentially food for our skin + bodies.

With all of the things going around in the world today, it's nice to know we are able to control what we put in + onto our bodies. So many beauty brands are making the switch + it's easy to follow suit. My favorite natural hair + skin care line all rolled into one is Monat. As a stylist, I have tried everything. It's challenging to find natural hair products that not only meet the natural safety standards but, do what they say they're going to do.
Did you know?
The European Union bands 1,328 harmful chemicals from their cosmetics that are known or suspected to cause cancer, genetic mutation, reproductive harm or birth defects.
The United States has only banned 11 chemicals.
That's why it's even more important to look out for yourself when choosing what "food" you're going to nourish your largest organ with.
Many products on the market claim to be natural but, its important to scrutinize the ingredients more closely for yourself as the government does not. There are many safer alternatives on the market these days, as well as home remedies you could try out for yourself, but Monat is FREE OF Parabens / Cyclic Silicones / Phthalates / Plastic Microbeads / Harmful Colors / Harmful Fragrances / Animal Testing.
