60. Looks Clean, Acts Dirty: A "Clean Beauty" Reality Check

Clean skincare is everywhere. But what if clean isn’t enough? In this episode, I’m breaking down one of the biggest misconceptions in the beauty world: that clean, natural, or non-toxic skincare automatically equals good skincare. Spoiler alert—it doesn’t. We’ll explore: What “clean” really means (and why it’s not regulated) Why some clean products still leave your skin dry, flakey, or reactive How to tell if a product actually supports your skin’s function Why apps, influencers, and pretty packaging can still lead you astray The signs of truly skin-respecting skincare A gentle ritual to help you reconnect with your skin’s needs Whether you’re a skincare lover, a label reader, or a holistic practitioner, this episode will help you rethink the way you shop, recommend, and care for your skin.
