Find Out How BRIXY is Making Sustainable Skincare Accessible for All - E.672 In this episode of Skincare Anarchy, host Dr. Ekta Yadav sits down with Jennifer Brodwick, the co-founder and VP of Sales and Marketing for Brixy, to explore the brand's innovative approach to sustainable skincare. Jennifer shares how Brixy was born from her husband Kevin's passion for creating safer, eco-friendly personal care products. After founding and selling Think Baby and Think Sport, Kevin envisioned Brixy as a brand that eliminates harmful chemicals and plastic packaging from personal care items. Jennifer discusses Brixy's mission to combat the staggering 120 billion units of plastic produced annually by the beauty industry, focusing on solid-format products like shampoo, facial care, and body wash bars. These products are designed to be effective and safe for all ages and skin types, prioritizing the health of the skin barrier and moisture balance. The Citrus Shampoo Bar is a standout product praised for its cleansing power and nourishing ingredients like coconut oil. Brixy sets itself apart by emphasizing ingredient transparency and science-backed formulations. The brand avoids vague marketing terms like "clean" and instead focuses on safety and proven effectiveness. As Brixy expands its range to include facial and body care, Jennifer explains their commitment to offering plastic-free alternatives that cater to diverse consumer needs. 🎙: https://lnkd.in/eWS-3xTx

Established: 2024 Founder: Elda Lima At Green Traffic Light®, we're committed to sustainability, transparency, cooperation and inclusivity, aiming to provide skincare solutions that prioritize both the well-being of our customers and the planet. We incorporate candles into our line of natural skincare products and align them with our brand values. Our eco-friendly candles are crafted with nature in mind, reflecting our values of solidarity and diversity. Green Traffic Light® offers handcrafted candles made with soy wax which is renewable, and burns more slowly than other waxes. Candles come with personalized messages on the label, allowing you to express love, encouragement, or celebrate special moments with heartfelt words. At Green Traffic Light®, we're more than just a skincare and candles eco-friendly brand—we're a reflection of a journey, a passion, and a commitment to quality and innovation. Our story begins with a background deeply rooted in the food sector, where attention to detail and a meticulous approach to quality control were paramount. As a laboratory technician, artwork controller and quality control expert, I spent years navigating the intricacies of food production, ensuring that products met the highest standards of safety and excellence. From scrutinizing ingredients to meticulously evaluating labeling and artwork, every aspect of the process was a testament to the importance of precision and integrity. As we transitioned from the food sector to organic/natural cosmetics, we brought with us a wealth of knowledge and expertise. Our products are crafted with the same level of care and attention to detail that defined our work in quality control. Each formulation is meticulously curated using high-quality, natural ingredients, ensuring that every product delivers effective results while remaining gentle on the skin and the planet. But our journey doesn't end there. Green Traffic Light® was founded with a mission to be a great alternative to the skincare industry by offering natural, sustainable and cruelty-free products that are not only beneficial for the skin but also for the environment. The inspiration behind Green Traffic Light® stemmed from the founder's background in Biological and Food Engineering. After realizing the environmental impact of water usage in product formulations, particularly in food and cosmetics industry, the founder decided to create water-free skincare alternatives. Join us on this journey as we continue to innovate, educate, and elevate the standards of skincare. Together, let's illuminate the path to a brighter, more radiant future—one Green Traffic Light® at a time. 💚💛❤️ Want to know more? Please reach us!

Is water in your skincare really a bad thing? Is “waterless” skincare really better? One of the biggest skincare trends these days is “waterless” skincare. The main explanation for this trend is that even in expensive skincare products, water is the first ingredient on the list. The top five ingredients on a skincare ingredient label make up about 80% of the product, so what that means is most of the cleansers, serums, lotions, and creams on the market are mostly water. This is true regardless of whether the product is sold online, in drug stores, department stores, beauty specialty stores, big box stores, or health food stores. It’s also true of “professional” products that can only be purchased from spas, salons, or doctors’ offices. It does not matter if the product is conventional, GMO, non-GMO, organic, green, blue, holistic, cruelty-free, vegan, what have you. In the majority of cases, if the product is a clear liquid (like a toner), an emulsion of any kind (lotion or cream), “hydrating” serum, or a clear gel–then it most likely contains some form of water.
