For all the detoxing, working out, and eating well that we try to do, we still let some of the most obvious toxins slip past our lips. One of my favorite beauty brands, RAW, just spelled this out for me in a pretty awesome, sleek and sexy way. The brand just shot a gorgeous video that offers a strong message in a tone that doesn’t scream “I Told You So.” The video, which is both silly and steamy and just debuted this very morning, features Stevie Ryan–who’s a video starlet (Billy Idol, Hilary Duff) and YouTube sensation– as she gets ready for a hot date in a hot little black slip.
I don’t want to ruin it, because it’s adorable, but turns out Stevie likes her lipstick a little too much. Something I didn’t know? Us gals consume an estimated 7 lbs of lipstick in one lifetime. That’s a lot of toxic, unintended–for-human-consumption crap we’re eating. Kinda makes you feel like all that tofu you eat is for nothing—but that’s not so. You can change your ways now. The video’s a kind reminder to be more conscious—and the best way to be more conscious, eco – wise and personal health-wise, is to buy your products from a safe, eco-friendly beauty brand like RAW. They really sell amazing beauty products that work wonders, but that also have your body soul, and tummy in mind.

Also, for some holiday fun, RAW has created a contest in which you could win a big ol’ basket of RAW products worth over $300. How to enter?

I have always tried to be somewhat aware of what i put in my body- I try to buy organic when I can, etc. But it had never dawned on me that i needed to take a look at what I was ingesting through my lipstick/lipgloss. I will def be checking out RAW products. thanks for the tip, sarah.
