The Beauty Detox Guide
In our book, a detox isn’t just about diet; it’s about removing toxic ingredients (read: parabens, phthalates, and “fragrance”) from your life in general, and many of the worst offenders hide in the medicine cabinet. Beyond being clean, some of the products here actually aid in detox through deep exfoliation and cleansing—plus, they offer plenty of opportunities for relaxing self-care.
Bath & Body
If you’re making the commitment to follow the goop detox, it’s worth taking the time to detox the largest organ we have: our skin. Dry-brushing supports circulation and gets rid of dead skin cells; hot baths help you sweat out toxins; and crystals and essential oils heal, re-balance, and soothe.
