In the ever-evolving landscape of skincare and cosmetics, where trends come and go as swiftly as the seasons change, one brand has stood out for its commitment to both beauty and sustainability. 

Beauty Counter, founded in 2011 by Gregg Renfrew, hit the ground running and carved out a niche for itself in the beauty industry, prioritizing clean ingredients, transparency, and environmental responsibility. 

But is Beauty Counter as clean as they claim to be? Recent scrutiny has shed light on the presence of questionable ingredients in some of its products, in addition to their sustainability practices, raising concerns among consumers and prompting a closer examination of the brand.

Today we are taking a closer look at what Beauty Counter did right to achieve their status and where they went wrong, so we can gain valuable insights into the evolving landscape of clean beauty and make informed choices about the products we use on our skin.

A very common ingredient in commercial skincare products is water. Humans require water, so what could possibly be wrong with it being a main ingredient in your skincare product? In fact, many commercial skincare products, even the natural ones, list water as the first ingredient. So who cares if your product is mostly water?

Water may be the perfect liquid for your insides, but your outsides feel differently. It might just be where all destructive effects truly begin.

‘Tis the season to unleash the joy of gifting and embrace the radiant glow of well-being!

Welcome to the most wonderful time of the year, when the spirit of giving takes center stage. Primal Life Organics is your holiday headquarters, proud to present a gift guide that hits the mark for everyone on your list.

In a world filled with holiday deals and a scramble for the most sought-after gifts, navigating the festive chaos can be daunting.

Vegan skincare and dental solutions have taken the world by storm, and for good reason! More and more people are realizing the impact of their choices on their health, the environment, and the well-being of animals.

Whether you are vegan or not, understanding how natural, ethical, transparent, and truly effective products are, matters to everyone. Having options that align with your values, cause no harm in the making, and importantly, actually work, help the world to be a better place for all. 

Unfortunately, navigating the world of vegan skincare, dental, and self-care products in general, can be a challenging task. Since there is no labeling regulation for the term “vegan”, it can be confusing to determine if a product is “clean vegan” or what we call “dirty vegan” - masquerading as being vegan but including non-vegan ingredients.

This is very frustrating for people that adhere to a vegan lifestyle, and at Primal Life Organics, we get it. We are staunch advocates for standing by our values and are committed to providing products that are made with only premium natural ingredients, cruelty-free, paleo-friendly, gluten-free, and vegan whenever possible.

In this article, we are going to define what makes a product vegan, how it is different from “organic”, “natural”, and “cruelty-free”, and how you can be sure to buy “clean vegan” over “dirty vegan”.

In a world where botox, facelifts, and Instagram filters exist, our obsession with retaining our youthful skin has reached new levels. After all, no one wants to look older and have a face full of wrinkles. But aging is inevitable and while we’re all for embracing ourselves no matter what our age, you don’t have to give in to not looking and feeling the best you can.
