Beautycounter Review

Even before I tried anything from Beautycounter—the California-based personal care brand specialized in safe, non-toxic products—I have now been impressed. 

In the spring, I interviewed founder Gregg Renfrew for the brand's launch in Canada (they've experienced the US since 2013), and discovered her goal of getting cleaner cosmetics in more people's hands. 

While the merchandise aren't necessarily natural, they're free from harmful chemicals, and boast chic packaging that wouldn't look out of place at any high-end department store. I also appreciate Beautycounter's transparency on ingredients. Their Ingredients Glossary explains what's in each product, and why (because "scientists shouldn't be really the only ones in a position to decipher the label on a cosmetics bottle"). There's also a "Never List" of the no-no what you'll never find inside their formulas. 

So just how can the products compare well? Now that I've had the ability to here's another collection of their makeup and skincare, my full report is below!

Beautycounter Lip Gloss

The Lip Gloss is non-sticky, super-shiny and extremely moisturizing. It comes into play seven shades; I tried three: Peony, a bright, Dahlia, a mauve with pink undertones, and Buff, a nude. Although there's not just a large number of colour payoff, I like how these feel on the lips, and the high-shine texture is truly pretty.

Beautycounter Purifying Charcoal Mask

The Purifying Charcoal Mask is just a clay and charcoal breathing apparatus that absorbs oil and draws impurities out of the pores. This is often ideal for oily or congested skin—or, if you're into multi-masking, it could be used by you to your T-zone and put an alternative solution mask in your cheeks. It comes with a steamy texture and you're built to leave it on 10 minutes; by that time, it's dry, but easily comes off with water. 

Beautycounter Charcoal Cleansing Bar

The Charcoal Cleansing Bar is just a non-drying, sulfate-free soap that's claimed to absorb impurities (thanks to the charcoal powder). I'm unsure about this, since it's not on your skin layer layer for greater than a few seconds, but I appreciate so it doesn't leave my face feeling tight, like other bar soaps do. Just in case you're wondering, it lathers clear, not black—so you don't need certainly to concern yourself with creating a mess in your sink!

Beautycounter Citrus Mimosa Body Bar

The Citrus Mimosa Body Bar is a finely milled bar soap with a subtle, refreshing scent. It's also sulfate-free and packed with shea butter, such so it won't dry your skin. If you're investing in a high-quality soap that'll last a substantial whilst in your shower, this is a superb option https://www.scamrisk.com/beautycounter-mlm/!

Conclusion

So there you've it—the lowdown on everything I've tried until now from Beautycounter !

Overall, I really do believe the merchandise are high quality, although the cost points are high (on par with luxury cosmetics). The makeup I reviewed here ranges from $36 to $51 Canadian, as an example, and the skincare from $30 to $55.

However, if you're like me and worried about harmful ingredients, the safety profile makes them worth it—and obviously the gorgeous textures and packaging. Tell me...
