Excellent list, thank you Lacey. I am doing the same in our household, examining, researching and replacing every product with cleaner, less toxic alternatives. I wish more news of these better products were shared widely.

With that in mind, here’s a great resource I stumbled upon: https://whattheglow.com

The site breaks down all ingredients in skincare products AND makes clear recommendations on toxic-free products; a ton of great information which made it easy to replace the whole gamut of skincare products we use, from cleansers to sunscreen.

Pro tip: the site is focused on toxin-free products for pregnant women, but guess what: there’s a ton of research showing the same benefits apply to menopausal skin. Any one of any age can and should use these toxin-free products.

Love this Lola! Thanks for sharing What The Glow! I hadn’t heard of it. Another good one I love that helps discerning women sort through what’s safe for pregnancy (and beyond) is Sorette (https://shopsorette.com). You might like it if you aren’t familiar! 💞

Thank you Lacey. Checking sorette out now and comparing ingredients in their skincare products against the list of safe ingredients from whattheglow. I love it when great resources are shared and make our choices more informed.

Slowly but surely switching over many of my products to better-for-you-brands. We’ve started with kitchen appliances: cast iron and stainless steel pans only :) Thanks for the info Lacey!

It can be a beast to do everything all at once! Little by little is a great strategy :) Glad you liked it Grace!!!
