    My Non-Toxic Skincare Routine (& Non-Toxic Make-Up Routine!)

    Since swapping to non-toxic skincare and makeup back in 2014, I’ve gone through many different brands. We are lucky that in 2024 there is a wide array of options for non-toxic make-up and skincare! I now use Crunchi exclusively for make-up because they are very careful with their ingredient selection, and they test for heavy metals- something other companies aren’t doing. For skincare, I use a mix of Pure Haven, and Crunchi, which have safe ingredients and have all tested negative for traces of PFAS in consumer protection research. I also enjoy a few other clean brands, like AnnMarie Skincare (think wildcrafted herbs and gemstone infusions), the Organic Skin Care Co., and a couple of other brands.

    Crunchi advocates for better beauty laws, sustainability, and formulates products to be pregnancy-safe, which I love. I joined as a Crunchi Advocate in July 2020 and have seen such a difference in my skin since using their products!

    My daily routine is below! Enjoy!

    Daily Non-Toxic Skin Care Routine

    Everything is listed in the order I use them!

    Note: I have aging, normal skin, and I always get 1-2 pimples right before my period. My skin was dry before starting with Crunchi, but not anymore. My skin concerns are fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scarring. I used to have redness and rosacea, but these went away when I started using Cruchi products. They sometimes come back if I neglect my skincare routine.

Thank you!

    Morning Non-Toxic Skincare routine

    • Crunchi Gentle Cleansing Face Bar (zero waste!) or Pure Haven Refresh Pre and Probiotic cleanser
    • Crunchi Clarilight Essence
    • Crunchi I AM Luminous Facial Oil or Pure Haven Soothing Serum
    • Crunchi Daylight Advanced Face Cream
    • Crunchi Powerlight Eye Cream
    • Dry Shampoo, if needed

    Evening Non-Toxic Skincare Routine

    • Crunchi I AM the BALM cleansing balm or Crunchi Gentle Cleansing Face Bar (zero waste!)
    • Crunchi Clarilight Essence
    • Pure Haven Soothing Serum or Crunchi Goldenlight Multi-Peptide Facial Serum
    • Crunchi Nightime Advanced Face Cream
    • Crunchi Powerlight Eye Cream
    • Magnesium Lotion on my neck and chest

    Extras!

    Okay, I use these as needed:

    • Pure Haven Exfoliator – I should really be using this 2-3 times a week instead of my facial oil at night before moisturizing. This dramatically reduces acne scarring and fine lines. BUT, I love the facial oils so much that when the moment comes to decide, I almost always pick the oil first. They just feel so heavenly! But, if you are serious about minimizing pores, addressing scars and wrinkles, etc., you will want to do this 2-3 times a week.
    • Charcoal Mask- I do this about once a month, usually right before or during my period.

    Daily Non-Toxic Make-up Routine

    My simple daily routine is usually less than five minutes. And I never let myself run out of these products!!

    • Summer: Crunchi Sunlight Tinted Sunscreen I go back and forth between shade 1 and 2 and I LOVE this light coverage in the summer!!!!!
    • Fall, Winter, Spring: Crunchi Beautiful Flawless Foundation – This foundation is AMAZING. I apply this with my fingers for medium coverage or a vegan makeup brush for full coverage. Applying I AM Luminous Face Oil or Smart Primer before applying foundation ensures a smooth finish! I wear shade 1.0.
    • Cheekmate Liquid Blush Apply a few dots lightly, and then blend with your fingers or a vegan makeup brush. I wear shade Guava.
    • Highliner Pencil Eyeliner– this is a the eye pencil I use!
    • Shattered Mascara – I love this mascara by Crunchi, it gives very, very full lashes! It can smudge under the eye, so try some transluscent powder under it!
    • My Alibi® Liquid Concealer I use the shade L5 mostly to brighten up under my eyes!
    • Nutribrow Eye Pencil– I fill in my eyebrows with this pencil!
    • Hydrogloss Lip Oil – Similar to lip gloss, I love wearing this by itself or on top of the Everluxe Lip Crayon. I wear shades Namaste and Ella. Recycle the glass tube when you are done!
    • Everluxe Lip Crayon – I love this talc-free formula! Crunchi tests for heavy metals so you can feel safe using this on your lips! I wear shade Plum Kiss in the Spring / Summer and Rosewood in the Fall / Winter
    • Luminescence Highlighter – This talc-free powder highlighter is perfect! I wear shade Glow.

    Notes on this:

    • Take this quiz to help pick your shade!
    • Crunchi products are vegan, cruelty free, gluten free, toxin free, made in the USA, and only use earth pigments in their products.

    Working with Crunchi

    Thinking about working with Crunchi?

    If you love safe, clean beauty, and educating others, this is the perfect job for you!

    I’m a Crunchi Advocate and I truly love working with this company. I love their mission, their products and I LOVE the peace of mind that all their products are safe products. I’m super careful about what I put into my body ever since I researched and started my fertility diet, and I’m super careful about what I put ON my body, and what we use in our house.

    After trying lots of non-toxic skincare and make-up products, Crunchi is my favorite because it is high performing, they have an aggressive sustainability effort and dedicated social mission, and they test for heavy metals. I love their products and I don’t have to do a ton of research for each individual product since I know all their stuff is safe.

    I also really love helping my blog readers make the switch to non-toxic products. And I would love to help you make the switch to safer beauty products too.

    I also love being part of the Crunchi team! I’ve developed life-long friendships, and love the community of like-minded women that working for this company provides!

      Hi Anna, what would you recommend for lip balm? I don’t like lipsticks or gloss. Sorry if I missed this in your post. Thanks!

        Hi Jessica! I don’t, I’m sorry! Beautycounter makes a tinted SPF but its a bit messy to apply, and then comes off easily with water. ->https://www.beautycounter.com/annarapp?goto=/product/countersun-tinted-mineral-suncreen-mist-spf-30

      Hi Anna! I was on the fence about using Tula or Counterbeauty… I ended up choosing Tula… what are your thoughts!? I haven’t seen you mention Tula & they are pretty clean products as well:)
      Thank you!

      I would like to thank you a lot for this beautiful job.
      I am a doctor, and I can tell you that most of my colleagues don’t know about such details because this is not the focus and also not the priority concern nowadays. I am very happy to see that there are still people who inform and work to help others.
      I have been trying for a long time to find a good cosmetic and skin care brand here in Switzerland. If you know any, please tell me! All the brands that you have shown are sold only in America. 🙁
      Congratulations on your job! You are amazing!
