I’M SO EXCITED TO SHARE THIS INFORMATION WITH YOU!
On this page you’ll find my recommendations for products I ACTUALLY USE currently or have in the past. I have a lifetime of health and wellness education, research and experience. I share with you here what I’m familiar with.
That doesn’t mean that there isn’t MUCH more out there that I’m unaware of and for that reason, this page is a collaboration with you. If you find something better, educate me.
If you’re seeking something not here,Send me a message inquiring as to specific products you’re seeking so I can assist you.
I will only share with you what I know to be as clean as I could find in the areas of non toxic beauty products, self-care in general, and more. Most of what I’m sharing with you on this page are products I use regularly and are some of my favorites.
You will also get discounts on some of these products you buy using my affiliate links.
There is so much I can’t put on this website page due to volume, but if the idea of a total overhaul for the sake of better health and natural beauty and nontoxic beauty products appeals to you, you may want to consider my Weight and Wellness Coaching Program. In it, we go through every room in your house and replace your not-so-healthy products with healthier options. That means food, skincare, cosmetics, dental care, textiles like towels and sheets and mattresses, fragrances, cookware, supplements and more!
IF YOU DON’T SEE WHAT YOU’RE LOOKING FOR HERE, CONTACT ME AND ASK!
I have a fierce passion for health and wellness, especially as it pertains to women because we are bombarded with chemicals in most of the products we use in daily life and those products affect our health and hormones.
I also encourage you to educate yourself. There’s an invaluable resource I’ve used for over a decade called The Skin Deep Database by the Environmental Working Group. They’ve amassed an incredible database of most personal care products we use. If you type in the product, or the ingredient that you’re curious about, the database will give you a safety rating, so you can decide whether you want to use that product. Give it a try. I love it because it educates you, and through that education, you’ll make better choices when you’re shopping for any personal care products and nontoxic beauty products.
Additionally, when it comes to food and nutrition resources and education, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND joining the Weston A. Price Foundation and availing yourself of an education all in one place that’s hard to come by. I’ve learned so much from them. It’s $40 to get a membership and you won’t regret the volume of high quality and well-researched information you’ll have access to. I don’t get anything from them for promoting them, I just really believe in what they’re doing and can say they’ve enriched my life immensely.
HAVE FUN SHOPPING AND LEARNING, AND I’M HERE AS ALWAYS TO GUIDE AND SUPPORT YOU!

IN YOUR FACE SKINCARE
All I can say about In Your Face Skincare is I LOVE IT. They are truly one of the cleanest skincare lines I’ve found and I order LOTS of products from them.
OTHER SKINCARE I LOVE
THE AYURVEDA EXPERIENCE
There is so much content and products on this website it will blow your mind. I am a huge proponent and user of Ayurveda in all areas of my life, and can say that while I haven’t used every product on their site, I love the ones I have.
So take some time to explore their abundance of options for non toxic beauty products and use my link for purchase.
60 CLEAN & NATURAL MAKEUP BRANDS
When it comes to cosmetics, it’s a dicey subject, as most are pretty bad, even the cleaner ones. If you READ THIS ARTICLE that lists 60 of the cleanest brands, and then check them in the SkinDeep Database link above on this page, it should help you find what’s best for you, as well as educate you on non toxic beauty products.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT ARTIFICIAL FRAGRANCES
These artificial fragrances are in EVERYTHING: perfume, laundry detergent, air freshener, cleaning products, toilet paper, menstrual products, plastics, self-care products. These phthalates are endocrine disruptors and have a profound impact on your health. For this reason I only recommend essential oils for perfumes or fragrances in any of the above products. Young Living is my favorite choice. They also have cleaning products for your home that are non toxic and actually good for your health.
AND CYCLE TRACKING
AWARENESS & CYCLE TRACKING FOR FERTILITY OR BIRTH CONTROL
These devices are one of the best things out there for all women to develop the most intimate body awareness. Unlike hormonal birth control, these devices track your cycle via temperature and are more reliable than the birth control pill, according to the Pearl Index that measures efficacy of birth control. And if you’re trying to get pregnant, you couldn’t ask for a better tool! I used mine for over 10 years with great success. So check these out. They’re not cheap, but you’re worth it and so is your health! Check out all three options. There’s also one just for teen girls!
HIGH QUALITY SUPPLEMENT COMPANIES
While I do use supplements, I’ve moved more and more in the direction of only using liquids or powders (less taxing on the liver than capsules and tablets), and getting as much as I can from REAL FOOD. If you missed my endorsement of the Weston A. Price Foundation above, this is my go to for information on food and supplements. The best thing you can do for your health is eat clean, organic, high vibe food and water. If that’s not available where you live, supplements can help and these are the 3 companies I currently order from.
OTHER SUPPLEMENTS I LOVE
DAVINES
For me, this company does it all. I love all of their products. Hair care is another tricky area where there are lots of toxic/unhealthy ingredients. While Davines isn’t perfect, it’s the most perfect I’ve come across. Choose the country you live in to see what’s available for you. This is the U.S. link.
IN A NUTSHELL
- There are a lot of not-great ingredients used in tampons, pads, and panty liners—from various kinds of synthetics, to dyes and colorants, paraffin wax and mineral oil, dioxins, and more. There are also unintentionally added contaminants such as PFAS aka “forever chemicals” because the body is unable to eliminate them so they stay in your system forever.
- Even some brands that are advertised as “organic,” “natural,” or “non-toxic” are made with some of these ingredients.
You also need to be on the lookout for Plastics and Endocrine Disruptors like Phthalates & BPA.
Again, do your research. READ LABELS!! I cannot emphasize this enough, especially for products that go into or next to your very sensitive vaginal tissue. This is another place you can research the chemicals in your menstrual products using The Skin Deep Database.
HERE ARE SOME BRANDS I RECOMMEND
My passion is making a difference in your life and in empowering women to find our authentic power, wisdom, and beauty. What is on this website is curated from my life experience with the Divine Feminine, and a heart full of love that inspires me to support you. By joining my list, you’ll receive valuable content that includes resources, wisdom, and support.
She embodies this sacred wisdom and role models it for all to benefit from. She peels away cultural influences such as the sexualization of women and reveals the true honoring of our bodies and their sacred cycles. Girls and women alike come away empowered and remembering their true nature.”
She has served as a beautiful catalyst in helping me and others to shed our wool cloaks, come out of hiding, and allow our femininity to reign supreme! Gina’s knowledge, open-mindedness, dedication, and love for her work is a gift to humanity…one I hope to be enjoyed by women (and men) everywhere."
