From Girly Girl to Clean Beauty Advocate: Why I Switched to Non-Toxic Makeup (Especially for Acne-Prone Skin)

Years ago, I started my journey toward living a more Toxin-Free(ish) Life.
At the time, I was dealing with autoimmune issues and knew I needed to support my body from the inside out. That meant slowly removing as many endocrine-disrupting products as I could from deodorant and household cleaners to my personal care lineup.

But one area was especially tough to clean up…

Makeup.

The Challenge No One Talks About

Here’s the thing: I’m a girly girl through and through. I love getting dolled up, playing with blushes and highlighters, and having a little glam moment even if it’s just for school pickup or running errands.

But as I dug deeper into my clean living journey, I realized many of my makeup staples were packed with endocrine disruptors, toxic dyes, and fragrance—all of which can mess with hormones, contribute to breakouts, and overload your body with junk it’s not designed to handle.

I knew I couldn’t keep using products that were working against my body’s healing. So I rolled up my sleeves and got to work.

What I Found (After Way Too Many Product Failures)

Let’s just say... not all clean beauty is created equal.
Some were too greasy. Some felt very challky. Some didn’t last. Some made my skin break out worse than before.

I was determined to find makeup that:

• Didn’t clog my pores

• Didn’t irritate my skin

• Didn’t mess with my hormones

• Actually performed well (hello, pigment + staying power!)

If you’re just starting out on your clean living journey, don’t stress about doing it all at once.

It’s a process! But if makeup is something you use every single day it matters.

What you put on your skin gets absorbed into your body. For me, switching to clean makeup was just as important as what I eat, how I sleep, and what I use to clean my house.
