International Womens Month Series Part 3
As part of my International Women’s Month Series, I’m highlighting female-founded companies and products in holistic body care that are leaders in the clean beauty movement. Let's keep celebrating the women who help create a safe and less toxic world for us! Read on to see who made the list and what exact products are Glow Girl Certified (GGC).
I know how difficult it can be to find products that are as clean as they are effective! I switched to using mostly clean products about five years ago after dealing with some health issues. As an editor for over 20 years, I’ve tried everything--I love to road-test and compare products and then share the best picks with you. The world of clean beauty is confusing and there are so many choices now so I hope this list makes it easy for you to find some best-in-class brands and products.
None of the products listed below contain parabens, phthalates, sulfates, formaldehyde, BHT, fragrance, and many other hormone and endocrine disruptors. I hope you join me and make cleaner choices when choosing your products to avoid ingredients that may cause future health problems.
Scroll down to see and shop the GGC list with everything from body scrubs to creams, oils, and more! xx Melissa
P.S. In case you missed it, check out the original post “International Women's Month: Glow Girl Certified Clean Makeup by Female Founders” and the 2nd article covering Clean Skincare. Both highlight female founders who make a difference in the clean beauty movement. Stay tuned for Part 4 covering the best products in female-founded hair care companies.
What you put ON your body is as important as what you put IN your body!
