Beautycounter did!
March fourth marks Beautycounter’s 6 year anniversary! Six years ago Beautycounter embarked on a mission, unlike any other cosmetics company, to get safer products into the hands of everyone. And today that mission has become a full-fledged movement as they are the leading company advocating for more health-protective laws for the personal care industry.
And I could not be more proud to be a part of this incredible company!
Did you know ingredients used in personal care products aren’t required to be tested for safety on human health? I sure didn’t. I had no clue until I learned that the personal care industry is one of the least regulated industries in our country. But Beautycounter is working to change that! When formulating our products, we prohibit the use of over 1,500 harmful or questionable ingredients. Because beauty should be good for you!
Beautycounter Red
To celebrate Beautycounter’s 6th anniversary, we’re offering $10 off when you buy two Red Color Intense Lipsticks. You can help spread the word about better, safer beauty by sharing Beautycounter Red with a friend. But keep reading, there’s more to this anniversary celebration!
Show Your Support
Beautycounter’s mission is about everyone not just Beautycounter customers. You can join this movement without making a single purchase simply by texting BETTER BEAUTY to 52886 to urge Congress to pass more health-protective laws in the personal care industry. Your voice, your text, matters!
In Just 6 Years
There’s so much to celebrate.
- In 2019 Beautycounter made Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies List and was named the most googled clean beauty brand in 2018.
- A Certified B Corp, with Bono as a member of our board.
- Recently featured in Forbes and on the The Today Show.
- Spotted being used by celebrity makeup artists on red carpets during awards season.
- Numerous visits to Congress to encourage more health-protective laws.
Much has been accomplished, but there’s still so much more to do……
Start with Lipstick
So often people ask me where to start when it comes to cleaning up their beauty routine and switching to safer beauty products. And I always say the same thing, “The easiest place to start is with what you put on your lips.” Your lipstick is something you not only put on your skin, but it’s something that is inevitably ingested. Something you kiss your loved ones with and drink your coffee with, lipstick for many of us is not just apart of our morning routine but a regular part of our every day. Safety should be a standard not an exception. But the unfortunate truth is that many conventional lipsticks are made with harmful or questionable ingredients, and most are not tested for heavy metals like lead.
At Beautycounter we not only formulate our lipsticks with safer ingredients, we also batch test color cosmetics for heavy metals. Because Beautycounter believes high-performing products should never come with a health risk.
So to make this anniversary party a real shin-dig, I’m giving away a Beautycounter Red Color Intense Lipstick Combo to one lucky winner and a friend! You and your best gal pal could win the most gorgeous, perfect shade of red lipstick ever! This shade of red is perfect for all skin tones; it delivers a long-lasting, smooth, satin finish with a touch of fresh peppermint flavor.

The Safer Beauty Tribe Newsletter
Once a month I send out a newsletter dishing the scoop on all things safer beauty. It covers everything from which ingredients to avoid to which “clean” companies are nothing but smoke and mirrors. The goal of the newsletter is to help you learn to read product ingredient labels like a pro. You can find out more about the newsletter and sign up here.
It is so overwhelming trying to clean up my routine. But I have started small by buying safe products once I have finished using something up. Pinned the number to send a text.
