According to an article on Goop, “The personal care industry is effectively unregulated – the last piece of regulation (a single page at that), was passed in 1938 – which means that companies are essentially free to do whatever they want, with no government oversight, packaging products that we use every day (mascara, face wash, shampoo, et. al) with toxic ingredients, including known carcinogens and endocrine disruptors.”
In addition to the ingredients listed above, parabens, sulfates, synthetic fragrances can post a threat to you, your skin, body and hair, which is why the clean beauty industry is now a billion dollar market.
Now, Brandless, an online retailer dedicated to minimalism and affordable products, is dipping their toes in the personal care category.
The new collection features six new products including face wash, face scrubs, moisturizing cream, body butter and lip balm in 4 - 5.5 fl oz bottles for a sheer $3 a pop. You read right, three whole dollars to pamper yourself with all-natural products that don’t include any harmful ingredients!
The treat yo'self on a budget movement does not stop there though, as eyelash curlers, cuticle nippers, stainless steel slanted tweezers and double-ended sharpeners are also available for all your grooming needs.
If you need a gift for your mother-in-law or want to plan a chill night in with the homies, bundles are also available online, from the clean skin regime bundle which focuses on facial products for your morning and nighttime routine, all the way to an at-home spa gift set.
So whatever your flavor, Brandless has got all you babes on a budget covered from their brand new clean-beauty products to porcelain rim salad and dinner plates.
