Is "Clean" Skincare Messing With Your Hormones?

You’ve cut plastic. You’ve cleaned up your supplements. You’ve started tracking your cycle, paying closer attention to your energy, your stress, and what your body’s asking for. You’re doing the work to support your hormones from the inside out. 

But what about what you’re putting on your skin? 

Skincare is often the last place we look. It feels harmless—just a quick layer of moisturizer, a serum, a spot treatment. Especially when it’s labeled “clean.” 

But your skin isn’t just a surface. It’s your body’s largest detox organ, and it absorbs what you put on it—especially over high-absorption zones like your belly, chest, and womb area. It’s connected to your lymphatic system. Covered in hormone receptors. And yes—directly impacted by what touches it every day. 

Clean Labels. Pretty Packaging. No Proof. 

We’ve all seen them—products promising anti-aging, glow-enhancing, skin-repairing benefits. Retinol serums. Soothing creams. “All-natural” oils. Usually in soft packaging with minimalist labels, sold under wellness language we’re trained to trust. 

And maybe you’re thinking, not me—I’ve already made the switch. I use castor oil. 

But even castor oil isn’t always as clean as it looks. 

We kept seeing brands throw around terms like “therapeutic-grade” and “practitioner-formulated”—none of which are regulated. Most don’t provide third-party testing. Many are bottled in plastic. Some, even when packaged in glass, were organic—but already rancid by the time you open it.  

Pick up your bottle. Does it smell strong? It shouldn’t. A truly fresh, cold-pressed castor oil should be nearly scentless. If it has an odor, oxidation has already started. 

And these are the same oils marketed for hormone-supportive uses—navel massage, lymphatic flow, detox rituals—used daily, directly over the most absorbent areas of the body. That’s where the disconnect becomes dangerous. 

Independent reviews like those from CastorOilReviews.com confirmed what we were seeing: most brands aren’t testing for even the basics. 

So We Made What Was Missing 

We didn’t add castor oil to our line because it was trendy. We added it because women needed something better—something they could use daily without second guessing. 

So we set a new standard: 

And then we went further. 

We created blends designed to help reduce your toxic burden—formulated for hydration, barrier support, anti-aging, and glow. All the cosmetic essentials, made with ingredients that respect your hormones and work with your body, not against it. 

Because skincare shouldn’t just be about looking good. 
It should support the woman underneath. 

Ready to Rethink “Clean”? 

If you’ve been doing the work to support your body internally, your skincare should be part of the solution—not part of the problem. 

Because “clean” should mean something. 
And in a world where most products are quietly adding to your toxic load, we’re here to help reduce it.
