I am a survivor of breast cancer and this all makes sense to me. I know what we use and eat has an impact. Thank you for this video!

[caitlin]

Can you do an updated version of this video? Like including new discoveries you’ve found recently?

I’m trying to go nontoxic in 2020 but I’m overwhelmed and drowning in all the options I have on the market.

My skin has NEVER looked better after ditching all of the artificially fragranced products. Fragrance is the number one irritant for me and my skin feels and looks amazing after switching to non toxic face washes and incorporating essential oils into my routine! 💜

Vinegar and baking soda are my go to non toxic household cleaning products they are the best!!

I adore Becca and all her videos but every time she mentions a Young Living product I groan so loudly because they’re SO expensive and I just flat out cannot afford them. I hate having to purchase anything that comes from MLM because it’s so inconvenient especially if you need something quickly. I know you get what you pay for when it comes to clean products but I feel like Young Living can’t possibly be the ONE AND ONLY brand that is safe for us to use.

This video was life changing for me!!! I was watching a video by a naturopathic fertility specialist with a degree in toxicology. She introduced the idea to me that toxins could be messing with my hormones and it got me wondering. Your videos have made me realize what is toxic and why and that basically everything I use has toxins in it!! I’ll slowly be replacing it all. I ditched my candles and nail polish and other junk today. Thanks for sharing this video.

The thieves toothpaste is what hooked me to YL! Seriously magic. I signed up with the Thieves kit and the cleaner is bomb. I prefer Schmidt’s deodorant, Ever Skin skincare & makeup, and I make hand and body soaps with Castile soap, almond oil, and EOs. Life has changed since switching to nontoxic products for the better!

Take a look at what your clothes are made out of! I just recently made the switch to all natural fibers. My skin is so happy and wayyy less itchy. I got rid of Acrylic (which is under going reasearch for a link with cancer) polyester, rayon and a few other sysnthetic fabrics. It was a huge change to my wardrobe but my health is more important to me than clothes. Plus, I now tend to only were cashmere or organic cotton. Both are super soft and comfy so not complaining here!

Dove Unscented Sensitive Skin Beauty Bars only rate a 2 on EWG! They’re an easy and accessible option for people trying to make more non-toxic choices. There are definitely more natural products out there, but if you’re already using Dove, it’s an easy and affordable change.

For facial sunscreen, I love the tinted facial sunscreen from Beauty by Earth. You can also get it from Amazon. It doesn’t feel greasy at all and blends really nicely into the skin. I like to use that for the initial application before leaving my house and then touch up throughout the day with Brush on Block. It’s a mineral brush on sunscreen that’s amazing. It lasts a really long time too.

What makes a product toxic, and what are the reasons that some ingredients are worse than others?

[bluelove]

Of course. A 30 minute Young Living ad. Not affordable for most people! Just make your own natural cleaners from Pinterest recipes, use Dr. Bronners soap and stop piling on the nasty fragrances from BBW and you’ll be good! 👍🏼

[becerrf]

I am so sad that I had never come across your channel before!! I LOVE your videos!! Thank you for making these, they are so helpful! I was mind blown by some of the products you talked about because I use them as well!

[danifriesen]

Thank you for this video!! I want to try going more non toxic. My hormones are so unbalanced and I live a healthy and active lifestyle but I know products and environment are not helping! Although I can’t control everything, I want to do my part and be more balanced.. especially when time for kids come along! Loved this so much!

[emilywilliams]

What a great and informative video Becca! I’m currently on a journey into having a natural and organic life, with clean food, intuitive eating and also with products. This was very helpful and also unbelievable at how many products we assume are good are actually filled with nasty harsh chemicals! Thankyou for sharing this! Xx

[whitneyadue]

What sources do you use to determine what ingredients are harmful? Where is the research that links this ingredients to cancer, etc?

[christaknell]

This was SO informative!! Today I ordered a few things from young living. Starting with the cleaner and laundry detergent and a few skincare products. I also use Dime Beauty which has an EWG score of 1 to 2 and I swear my skin has been SO much better since switching to more non toxic products. I am excited to start switching all my products over to less toxic products.

[EverydayCait]

Really wish that all of these videos weren't so focused around essential oils. There's so much conflicting information, so I don't rely on them for anything anymore.

[aprilh]

Can you share where you found information about Method cleaners not being a natural cleaner? It literally says non-toxic and plant based on the label.

[darbidevault]

I’d love a video on what you’ll use for your baby as far as diapers, wipes, and lotions and things go!

[heathershobe]

Hey Becca, so glad you put this video together. I love that you inform yourself on everything before you share info on your channel. It’s kinda frustrating to read negative comments on here when you’re just sharing YOUR journey and what works for you. It’s not like your telling others “you have to do what I’m doing!!!”. Anyway, we are at the very beginning of our ditch and switch journey and will be doing it the way you did and replacing things as they run out! You’re so positive and real and I love that! Thanks for sharing this video!
Stay you 😘
