Am I beautiful? Am I as beautiful as others? What does being beautiful mean?
Loving ourselves is a life long journey. For many women the subject of beauty can be painful. Rachel Buchanan has a long history of supporting women's health. After having an Acupuncture practice emphasizing natural remedies for women's health she noticed how each woman's environment, including her beauty and personal care products, were effecting her physical health. Rachel reports clients being diagnosed with diseases where the environment contributed to the decline of their health. Rachel shares about how many beauty products contain harmful ingredients and there is a lack of government regulation in personal care products. This led Rachel to finding a natural beauty product line that advocates for skin health in Washington D.C. Our skin is the largest organ in the body and absorbs whatever we put on it into our system. Rachel reports that 90% of products have not been tested for human safety. She feels it is a basic right to have access to safe products for all people. When we have the education about what we are putting on our skin we can make better choices. Rachel's passion is to help women feel beautiful and to be educated to make choices in their personal care products that can support and promote their overall health and well-being while also helping women accentuate their natural beauty.
Rachel shares the transformation she has seen in people's health as they use "clean" skincare products. Rachel believes that along with eating healthy, exercise, and managing stress we need to be aware of what we put "on" our skin that goes into our body. Rachel loves to help women who have health issues be able to put on natural makeup to feel good without any negative effects.
Start simple trying new products by taking care of your beauty and health from within you by changing how you think, and what you put in and on your body.
Rachel believes "beauty comes from the Inside" and that you feel more beautiful and joyful when you spend your days doing things that recharge you. Nurture yourself and share your beauty with the world!
