Healthier Skincare & My Skin Story
I haven’t truly opened up on Lexi’s Clean Kitchen about the years I have spent struggling with my skin. My skin has always broken out and been super sensitive. For as long as I can remember I have been self-conscious about going out without wearing make-up, and just feeling badly that my skin was STILL an issue.
I figured this was just the way it was and that sadly my skin wasn’t going to ever change.
As I got a bit older, I became more and more upset about my skin. I would constantly say, “I’m in my mid-to-late twenties and my skin still looks like I’m a teenager.” If any of you have struggled with skin issues in your adult life, you can attest that it is such a frustrating journey.
I always knew I wasn’t using the best products that I could be using on my skin, nor was I totally taking care of my skin the best way that I could. But I kind of ignored all of that and attributed everything to hormonal issues. And while I have and do struggle with some hormonal stuff, I knew I could probably be doing more to help my skin on the surface.
Then, a few of my favorite blogger friends that I truly trust told me about BeautyCounter. I had heard a lot about the products for the past year or so, but never ended up trying them out. But I’m tired you guys. I was tired of my skin looking bad and continuing to spend money on the same products that weren’t working for me. So a few months ago I placed my first order, with some guidance from friends who use the products as to what to buy. I’ve spent the last few months experimenting with them and I couldn’t be happier so far. My skin has really turned itself around! I feel comfortable going out without makeup, and feel so much better about the products I’m using on my face and body.
For the past year or so I have been transforming our home away from non-toxic and harmful products, and I am beyond excited to have found a line of skincare and make-up that works like the real deal, without any of the chemicals that are in conventional products.
I am truly beyond excited to share with you what I’ve tried so far, and how you can get your hands on the products yourself!

Why no retinol or retinyl palmitate? Thought these were good vitamin A products that help with skin cell turnover?
Hi Barbara!
Both of those products are a 9 (high hazard) on the EWG.org Skin Deep database. You can check out more information through that link.
Best,
Lexi
Retinal A is ok for skin if you never go in the sun! I didn’t know this until I started working with Beautycounter as a consultant. I guess if you use Retinal A on your skin, and go in the sun your chances of getting skin cancer goes up.
Freaky!
Hi Lexi,
I am excited to have found this, like you I am taking chemical cleaners out of our home. I would like to do the same with our skin care etc. I am excited to try these products. One of my biggest problems is under eye puffiness, I have tried so many different products that just don’t work. So I will be looking at the under eye cream.
Thank you!!
Tracy
I just emailed you Tracy!
I would love to know your routine–I also say that I’m 27 and still have the face of a 13 year old!! SO frustrating!!
I am going to order a few things through beautycounter..glad I can use your link. was curious..do you use any of the tinted moisturizers? I was going to purchase one as well but wanted to get thoughts. 🙂 Thank you!
You will love the products Kristen, and orders placed by next Thursday over $50 will receive Charcoal mask samples from me! I JUST ordered the tinted moisturizer a few days ago, so I can’t say for sure just yet, but people absolutely love it! If you need other recommendations though, let me know!
I love the face bar and wanted to love the mascara I found it smudges really bad 🙁
Really?!?! Aw I haven’t had that issue! Good thing they have their 60-day money back then!
Lexiii!!!! Congrats on your spankin’ brand new cookbook!!! Also, can I still become a consultant if I do not have my own website?
Love!
HEY LADY! Thank you!!! Of course you can!! Email me, I’ll explain everything and help you get set up! Lexi@lexiscleankitchen.com
I have mature skin with hormonal problems and would love to find a natural skincare line. Do they have sample sizes of various products to purchase?
Hi Mia! Not samples, but if you order, there’s an amazing return policy. 60-days money back — no questions asked! If you’re looking for a few things to try (my skin is hormonal as well) — I’m happy to chat! You can always email me. Lexi@Lexiscleankitchen.com
Hi Lexi! I’m working on cleaning up my skincare, and have issues with sensitive skin, redness, and breakouts. How do I figure out what products at BeautyCounter will be the best ones for me to use? I don’t see any kind of skin care finder on the website, but maybe I overlooked it. Thanks!
