Charcoal and snails and sea salt, oh my! What do these seemingly disparate words have in common? If you’re active in the wellness industry<\/a>\u00a0you likely have an idea: They’re all loosely pinned to the practice of \u201cclean beauty.\u201d We’re all about cleaning all aspects of our lives, and the routines and self-care practices involving how we present ourselves to the world are of course no different. But let’s go\u00a0<\/span>beyond the buzzword. What does clean beauty actually mean for you, the planet, and the animals in it?<\/span><\/p>\n

Let’s start with the ugly truth:\u00a0The personal care industry is essentially unregulated. The <\/span>last piece of regulation<\/span><\/a> was passed in 1938 and has very little rules about what can\/cannot go into your beauty products. In fact, brands don\u2019t even need to list their ingredients, and can defend this level of privacy by claiming that they’re protecting \u201ctrade secrets.\u201d And it gets scarier: This also means that terms like organic, natural, and clean don\u2019t have any power when it comes to beauty products. Because companies are permitted to remain secretive when it comes to ingredients, these labels can be put on anything. <\/span><\/p>\n
