Are you looking to incorporate healthy cosmetics into your every day routine? I teamed up with EWG VERIFIED™ to help spread the word about how easy it is to make better beauty choices. With no research required, EWG VERIFIED, makes healthier shopping easier for you and your family. EWG VERIFIED™ products include cosmetics like foundations, blushes, eye shadows and eye liners, lipsticks and lip glosses; skin care products including cleansers and moisturizers; shampoos and soaps; and many more.
What does EWG VERIFIED™ mean?
Among other things, products must:
• Be free of EWG’s ingredients of concern
• Fully disclose all ingredients
• Follow good manufacturing practices
You can sign up for their newsletter to receive healthy living tips, shopping guides and promotions. Want to know which of your favorite products made the mark? You can check out a list here.
I was recently sent some new to me beauty products to test out and share my favorites with you. All of the products you see in the below photo have all been EWG Verified and have been marked with their official EWG symbol. EWG VERIFIED products are fully transparent, disclosing all ingredients – even disclosing all of the chemicals in “fragrance”. Let’s check out what was in the box (Stay tuned to the end – There is a giveaway to win ALL of the items!) (Side note – I haven’t tried every single product, but will share my thoughts on the ones I have tried)
