Hi! I had a very unexpected journey that led me to becoming a Consultant for Beautycounter! I’ve always been passionate about clean health and being assured that anything I put in or on my body is safe. I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease at 19 and began searching for ways to keep my body safe from toxic chemicals and allergens. Makeup and beauty products were always a struggle because almost everything I tried would cause a flare or an allergic reaction on my sensitive skin. I was first introduced to Beautycounter when my mom gifted a few makeup products and I instantly fell in love!

My "why" is I am passionate about clean health and beauty products and honestly feeling safe and comfy in the skin you're in! With an autoimmune disease it is hard finding products that don't cause flares and still make you feel beautiful! This is why I love Beautycounter! I was blown away with how attentive and careful the company is with ingredient lists and formulating effective and beautiful products! Clean beauty has never been easier or in such a beautiful and sustainable package!

I am passionate about Beautycounter for several reasons. First of all, I began a journey in 2016 to eat healthier and be more conscious about what I put in my body. Then after my diagnosis in 2018, I wasn't only concerned about what I ate but also what I was wearing. This has completely revolutionized how I buy and choose my products so I can be the healthiest I can be while also doing my part to use natural and sustainable products. I was introduced to Beautycounter by a few autoimmune-sisters who have had similar skin sensitivity woes!

Beautycounter has a three-fold mission, to create and distribute safer products, to educate consumers about the need for safer products, and finally to advocate for more health-protective laws in the personal care industry. (Did you know that federal regulations for beauty products have had little alteration since 1938?) Beautycounter has what we call a "Never list" of more than 1,800 questionable or harmful ingredients. This list is ever changing and being added to so that our products are the safest they can be. I've learned that unlike Europe which has banned 1,400 ingredients in beauty production, the US has only banned 30.

I want to advocate for change in this industry and for more transparency! Clean beauty has never been easier or in such a beautiful and sustainable package!
