Green Beauty Products I Use While Pregnant

What's in my bathroom cabinet while I'm growing a tiny human?
- Have a read below -

Face

1. ​Biologi Bf Hydraton body serum: for my face and body. It's so versatile and nourishing. 

2. Cedar and Stone's oil cleanser: for evening face wash, and I steam off the impurities with a bamboo or muslin face cloth.

3. Simple as That Sunscreen: it's 30 SPF and I use this daily. Most days I only wear this and mascara. 

​4. La Mav Organics BB Cream: in the medium shade. 

Body

​1. Biologi Bf Hydraton body serum: for my face and body

2. Black Chicken's Axilla Barrier Booster natural deodorant: which is for sensitive skin. I can shave my armpits and use this right after, it's amazing! 

3. Dr Bronner's bar soap: my favourite bars are the lavender, hemp rose and peppermint.

4. The Source Bulk Food's ylang ylang shampoo: I don't use conditioner because I don't have any need for it. If you would like to use an all natural, DIY conditioner that is free from nasties, try this.

5. Black Chicken Remedies dry shampoo: it's natural, organic, works well and smells amazing.

6. Dr Bronner's Organic Magic Balm as well as Black Chicken's Balm of Ages: for when I needed that little something extra on rough and very dry skin.

What I don't do:
  • I don't use Bio Oil like I did in my first pregnancy because it's primary ingredient is a paraffin liquid (which is a petroleum distillate). I sure as heck don't need my largest organ drinking up petroleum byproducts!
  • I don't paint my nails or visit toxic nail salons, especially while pregnant, since those places are teaming with endocrine disrupting chemicals. 
  • I get my hair "dry cut." Truth be told, I do this all the time actually, not just when I'm pregnant. I wash my hair at home with my preferred products and dry it, then head straight to the salon. It's a lot cheaper, and I avoid tons of toxic products by avoiding commercial shampoo, conditioners and hairspray.
  • I don't wear artificial fragrance or perfume... ever. 

What I do make an effort to do:
  • I make my own hand soap from scratch.
  • I make my own home cleaning products. 
  • I use eco-friendly and toxin free laundry detergent on all our clothes (baby's too). 
  • We run three medical grade air purifiers in our home.

Well, that's it!
