No truer words have been strung together, such as these β€οΈ Almost five years ago, I joined @beautycounter for the mission, the mission to get safer products into the hands of everyone π At the time, I had been in the beauty industry for twenty years. I had no clue, none, about the lack of regulation within my industry.
>>The fact that there hasn't been a major federal law passed regulating personal care products (makeup, skincare, body products, deodorant, baby shampoo, toothpaste, etc.) since 1938 was shocking.
>>The fact that the U.S. only bans 30 ingredients compared to the E.U. with 1,400. I mean...30? And it was only 11 five years ago, so there has been "some" progress. I mean...π€¦π»ββοΈ
>>The fact that there are 80,000+ chemicals on the market today, and many don't have safety data for human health.
Just a few reasons. I couldn't unlearn what I had learned, especially the correlation with my hypothyroidism. I knew I had to be part of the change, educating others, advocating for safer beauty laws. What took me by complete surprise was the community of women πͺπβ€οΈ that I'm surrounded by (in-person & virtually), learn from, be inspired and motivated by...just so much more than I expected!
Then you throw in the accidental business that I'm so incredibly proud of, especially during these unprecedented times. It's been life-changing, and I'm full of gratitude. I love sharing this opportunity because I know what this business has done for my family and me.
If you've been thinking of ways to bring in additional income during these uncertain times, I would love to talk to you about Beautycounter. Itβs the best decision career-wise Iβve ever made π We've waived enrollment fees through tonight, and we had the biggest launch in the history of our company this week. It's a great time to start your Beautycounter Business! #beautycounterworks #ilovewhatido #leadersinclean
