Our skin is our largest organ and aborbs so much of what it comes in contact with. Without the added protection of our digestive system, the toxins and chemicals that it absorbs go straight into the bloodstream. Many of the products we use in the bathroom contain harmful ingredients unless we are mindful about our choices. Even conventional cotton is heavily sprayed with chemicals before it is harvested, transferring all of those chemicals directly onto your body. Here are some safer bathroom products that can help you have peace of mind about what you put on your body.
Coyuchi is a great company with commitment to organic and environmentally clean products. Their organic cotton is GOTS certified and free from toxic chemicals.
Rawganique is a small-scale manufacturer of chemical-free pure organic clothing, footwear, bed, bath, & home products. Their ethical products are made from sustainable, chemical-free, organic cotton and hemp. They are 100% transparent about where their products are made and grown. They are local to us here in Bellingham, WA and we are excited to offer more support for their amazing company!
A much less expensive and great alternative or addition to having a whole house filter is to add a shower filter in order to help eliminate chlorine and other chemicals that are released into the air when showering. Chlorine is very toxic to our bodies and we not only breathe it in when showering, but our skin also absorbs toxins and chemicals right into the bloodstream as it comes in contact with them. We bought this for our shower before we had a whole house filter and now we use it as an extra layer of filtration.
