Charcoal Cleansing Bar + Sea Salt Spray

January 19, 2016 Shannon Taatjes

Two new amazing safe products just hit Beautycounter's website today!  The Charcoal Cleansing Bar made it's debut last month but sold out quick...it's back in stock today!  The Sea Salt Spray is brand new and I can't wait to get my hands on it because I LOVE sea salt sprays to create great textured style in my hair.  Here's a little more info about these two....

CHARCOAL CLEANSING BAR

This Charcoal Cleansing Bar is called a "face bar", but can absolutely be used on your body too.  I've heard it works wonders on "bacne".  It detoxifies and absorbs impurities without drying it out!  If you struggle with acne at all... or have teenagers going through that phase... give this a try.  I don't have acne, but i do have small breakouts at times and I plan to keep this bar on hand for those times when I need it.  I've heard this bar is absolutely amazing for blackheads.  Many people think they need to steer clear of oils when they have acne prone or oily skin and this simply is not true.  You just have to use the right ones.  Synthetic oils sit on top of the skin and can make your skin "greasy".  Many products are actually overly drying with harsh surfactants such as sulfates....which end up making the problem worse.  This bar gently draws out impurities with charcoal while nourishing the skin with safe oils that are easily absorbed.  This one bar will last you for months.  This is going to be a HOT item, so you might want to jump on this before it sells out again;)

SEA SALT SPRAY

Ready for beachy waves?  This Sea Salt Spray is for you!  I've always loved using sea salt spray on my hair because it creates a great, textured style...but I felt other brands would dry it out.  I have dry hair anyway, so I stopped using it as much.  This one will give it touchable texture without drying it out!  It has Himalayan Pink salt, red algae extract, and clay.  It's used to create beachy waves, enhance curls and restore shine.  Other sprays often contain hormone-disrupting ingredients and are contaminated with measurable amounts of carcinogens.  It just came out today....so I'll be ordering this one for sure.  I'm headed to Maui in March and this will be my perfect hair companion!

Enjoy!  I am more and more excited every day now that I'm using more and more Beautycounter products.  It makes me feel great to know I'm using products that are safe and non toxic.  They are so high performing and their packaging is spot on.  I'm a girly girl...so I'll admit that matters to me!  My husband is totally happy we are making safer switches too.  He even requested I order him the shaving cream so I did immediately when I learned his old one had carcinogens and hormone disrupters that may cause liver damage!  So don't forget the think about your entire family when making safer switches;)

I'll keep you posted on the products I'm using and loving!  Have an awesome day....and don't forget to watch "The Human Experiment" on Netfilx to learn more about what's really going on in the U.S. and why many of the products we use every day could be causing our family harm.  Read more about my mission to help get safe products into the hands of everyone in my Safe Product Movement post and Why I Chose Beautycounter.
