Welcome back to another episode of Ask Dr. Meghan! Today we are talking all about safer skincare and how it is SO important to take good care of your skin!
Did you know that everything you put on your skin is absorbed into the body? This means that if you are using skincare products full of chemicals, those are getting into your precious body, or your baby’s body.
By taking small, simple steps you can reduce your body’s toxic load, which does amazing things!
Check out all there is in this week’s episode! I am unpacking the why it is important as well as how to help three different skin types.

Did you know that the personal care industry has very little regulation in our country?
Companies are allowed to include known toxins in their products – ingredients that are linked to hormone disruption, fertility issues, cancer and more.
And they aren’t required to disclose these ingredients with you. Sounds wrong, right?
I have been aware for a number of years that our personal care products don’t have enough regulations in this country to be called safe.
I’ve known I needed to switch my products and throw away some of the more toxic things, but my problem was that I couldn’t find products that worked well!
Everything I tried left my skin feeling dry and my makeup looking like I hadn’t put anything on after 10 am.
It was a real problem and I wanted to give up trying to find good and safe products…that is, until I discovered Beautycounter!
Beautycounter is committed to a health and safety standard that goes well beyond what’s required by U.S. law.
They’ve banned the use of more than 1,500 questionable or harmful chemicals through their “Never List”—all while ensuring their products perform and that they’re as indulgent as any other luxe shampoo, lipstick, or oil in the market.
