Show Notes
In this episode we talk clean beauty with the founder of Follain, Tara Foley. Tara, a self-described "activist-at-heart" shares with us her journey from discovering clean beauty to opening Follain. We dive deep on what clean really means and the regulation around the terms natural and clean (spoiler: there is none). She also gives us her top ingredients to watch out for. Our favorite part of the episode, though, has to be Tara's amazing product recs. We chat about everything from budget-friendly to high-tech clean beauty recs and she gives us specific suggestions for both dry skin and acne-prone skin routines. If you're thinking about using more clean products, Tara makes that sound a whole lot less daunting and this episode is the perfect place to start!
