Three months ago I joined Beautycounter. I did it because I wanted to switch my skin care and make up products to more natural choices and they were running a special to join for $20 to get the discounted pricing. Since then I’ve bought multiple products to try and am really pleased with them for the most part!<\/p>\n

I’m not a queen of green living by any definition, but have found that slow changes over time do work for me. Two years ago I focused on our water (we added a whole house filtration system and bought a Berkey<\/a> for our drinking water). Last year I focused on cleaning products, and now use Branch Basics<\/a> for the majority of my household cleaning. This year is about cleaner skincare and I’m excited at how Beautycounter<\/a> makes that a pretty easy and attainable goal.<\/p>\n

I’m not a “go all in person” with these types of changes. Instead, I slowly switch over to products as I run out of my old products. Over the past three months, I’ve had a chance to switch over a few of my most used products and these are my honest reviews of the products I’ve tried thus far!<\/p>\n

These are affiliate links, which means if you order through them, I’ll be your rep (smiles and awkwardly waves). I don’t know the answers to all the questions, but if you have questions, I have the resources available to to get you the answers you’re after. Ok, let’s go!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Countermatch Refresh Foaming Cleanser<\/a> This comes out as a thick cream and gets somewhat foamy for me, but I do feel like it helps get my face to that super clean feeling and gets off a majority of my eye makeup, too. I like that it leaves my skin feeling fresh and not tight. <\/p>\n

Counter+ All Bright Vitamin C Serum<\/a> I was super excited about this product because I heard people rave about it, but after a month of use I still didn’t really feel like my skin looked brighter. However, after asking about that on Instagram, I quickly learned that the main role of vitamin C serum is to nourish your skin and prevent future damage, like a vitamin for your face. So I’m sticking with it.<\/p>\n

Countersun Daily Sheer Defense for Face<\/a> I like that this is a physical block (using zinc) and as with any natural physical block, it feels slightly sticky when I first apply it. However, that goes away after about two minutes.<\/p>\n

Counter+ Charcoal Facial Mask<\/a> I love this stuff. Once a week (usually Sunday evenings) I use this mask and I love how it pulls impurities out of my skin (it’s visible!) and leaves my face feeling so, so soft. Highly recommend.<\/p>\n

Counter+ Overnight Resurfacing Peel<\/a> Huge fan of this stuff! I have noticed a visible difference in my skin since adding this into my nightly routine (after washing, before moisturizer and eye cream). My skin looks brighter and more nourished.<\/p>\n

Countertime Tetrapeptide Supreme Cream<\/a> Another big winner in my book, especially in the cold months. It’s thick and luxurious and adds a ton of moisture to my skin.<\/p>\n

Countertime Ultra Renewal Eye Cream<\/a> I know we are all supposed to wear eye cream (especially if we are in the generation that wore goucho pants) but it drives me crazy that I never see any big differences with using eye cream. However, I like the way it feels just fine and will continue to use it because “they” tell me I should.<\/p>\n

Lip Conditioner in Peppermint<\/a> I really like the smell of this stuff. It works well and the girls like it too, so I keep it with me at all times because winter weather is sucking the life out of our lips.<\/p>\n

Sheer Genius Conditioning Lipstick<\/a> (in Rosewood) I don’t wear a lot of lipstick, but really liked the shade of rosewood. It goes on really smoothly and feels moisturizing. Plus I love the that the top is magnetic; it makes it fun to close. Ha. I like how it looks and feels on that one day a month that I wear it!<\/p>\n

Any questions?<\/p>\n
