๐ Fall in Love with Low-Tox Fragrance ๐
Peek my current fall line-up above
Can you believe it is the middle of September? Yeah, me neitherโฆ I donโt know about you, but Iโm already dreaming of cozy evenings at home. Itโs the perfect time to start thinking about fall-inspired scents that make your space feel warm, inviting, and just a little luxurious.
Can I let you in on a secret? You donโt have to give up beautiful scents to live a lower-tox lifestyle; You just have to get picky about where they come from! Most conventional candles, perfumes, and even body lotions hide dozens of synthetic chemicals behind the word โfragrance.โ Those can trigger headaches, disrupt hormones, and mess with your air quality - none of which pairs well with cozy autumn nights
Hereโs how I still enjoy all the warm, spicy, crisp, and comforting vibes - without the hidden toxins:
Basic Bee โ Beeswax-based and scented with essential oils. The Cinnamon Clove and Pumpkin Chai are my go-to fall burns
Wellness by Ari โ Coconut wax, clean-burning, and super stylish. Try Autumn Spice and Sweet Orange for fall!
Perfume: Skylar - Clean fragrance made without phthalates or synthetic musks. This time of year, I reach for Vanilla Sky or Fall Cashmere (layer them for a great fall scent!)
Deodorant: Primally Pure - no aluminum, parabens, fragrance, triclosan, talc, propylene glycol, or anything artificial! My year-round fave is Blue Tansy, but Charcoal and Lavender feel extra grounding for fall
Lotion/Body Butter: Andalou - no PEGS or parabens. Scents: Mandarin Vanilla, Lavender Thyme and 1000 Roses, Aleavia - organic, prebiotic skincare. Scents: Lavender or Orchid, or Primally Pure - formulated with organic plant oils and responsibly sourced animal fats. Scents: Eucalyptus + Lavender, Citrus + Mint, Almond + Vanilla

Final Tip:
If the label just says โfragrance,โ without breaking it down, that could mean dozens of undisclosed chemicals. Transparency is key.
