It can be hard to find the time to source, research and order all of your clean, non-toxic beauty items! Most stores are filled with items full of harmful chemicals and very few clean options to choose from.
Sometimes I run out of something and need to quickly grab a replacement or I travel and forget an essential product! Knowing which big brands are usually clean helps but you’ll be surprised that some typically “toxic” brands have cleaner options too! Here is my list of the top affordable, easy to find, go-to noon-toxic beauty items!
Best Brand for All Products
Burt’s bees is easily the best brand in big box stores for clean beauty. Almost every item them make has a great ewg.org score for clean, non-toxic beauty! Even better their products are very affordable and even come in gift sets if you want to spread the clean beauty joy! My go to item from Burt’s is their chapstick!
Go-to Cleanser
LaRoche-Posay has a cleanser that is fairly easy to find! I googled and found it in-stock at my local Target, Walgreens and Ulta! They have a hydrating version for dry skin and a purifying version for oily skin! Great reviews and a good score on ewg.org makes this a go-to choice for easy to find cleansing.
Best Products for Sensitive, Eczema prone skin
Cerave has a few cleansers and moisturizers that are safe, non-toxic choices. I used their cleanser on the regular when I first got diagnosed with eczema. My dermatologist recommended them and they are very easy to find basically everywhere! Not all of their products are non-toxic though so be sure to check with the ewg.org to determine which ones are safe.
Best Non-toxic Kids Find
The best affordable kids brand I’ve found has to be Hello Bello! Kristin Bell and Dax Shepard started this brand when they had kiddos because of the lack of quality, affordable products. It’s awesome, ewg certified and available at Walmart!
Simple Hair Care
Shea Moisture is one of my favorite hair care brands that is affordable and easy to find! Most chain stores carry it and they have a good variety of shampoos and conditioners available! My favorite is the curly one, it works wonders on my wild child’s mane!
Clean Nail Polish
This category is a bit more tricky! It’s truly hard to find a mass produced, clean ingredient nail polish! Most if your clear top coats from a variety of brands are safe! OPI has a few lighter colors that are considered moderately safe but my favorite brand found in stores (Target) is called Piggy Paint. They don’t have a tone of colors but the quality and fact you can grab them from a big box store is huge!
Go-to Serums!
Guys!!! Serums are actually pretty easy to find from most brands and fit the bill for non-toxic beauty! I personally like to put a serum on a layer on my moisturizer for maximum benefits! I got these Olay Serums a while back on a buy one get one deal, stand alone they can be a little expensive! This deep hydration one and tone protection one I use regularly and love the boost they give my tired Mom skin these days!
What do you think of these clean beauty finds, did any surprise you? Are there others you would add? Let me know 🙂 Until next time, keep it cleanish haha!
I had no idea there were so many clean options at the local drug store! I’ll have to try that serum soon!
Yes girl! Most serums are usually good options because they typically focus on just one or two ingredients!
