Things change too quickly to be using an outdated list of ingredients to avoid!
In today's episode, I'm breaking down the brand new 2025 update to my most popular freebie - the Top 25 Toxins to Avoid guide. After a year of feedback from my Toxin Free in Three students and watching new trends emerge in the beauty industry, I've made crucial updates that every clean living enthusiast needs to know about.
The biggest changes include a new UV sunscreen ingredient that's sneakily appearing in "all mineral" products, an expanded "use with caution" list that addresses bio-individual needs, and a completely new section on microplastics and liquid plastics!
But this isn't just about adding more ingredients to avoid. It's about creating a more nuanced, practical approach to clean living that doesn't rely on fear-mongering or clickbait. Most importantly, I'm addressing the core issue plaguing the non-toxic space: the lack of clear standards and informed consent.
In today's episode, we're chatting about:
• The new UV sunscreen ingredient appearing in "clean" products (and why it matters)
• Why some ingredients deserve caution but not complete avoidance
• The truth about microplastics in cosmetics and their real impact
• How to practice discernment in the fear-based clean beauty space
• Why informed consent should be the foundation of your clean living journey
