10 Swaps I Made That Changed My Health + Home!
Making the switch to non-toxic products didn’t happen overnight. I started with one product, then another, and over time my daily routine completely changed. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, start small. Even one better swap can make a difference.
Here are 10 of the biggest swaps I’d recommend starting with:
✨ Top 10 Non-Toxic Swaps
1. Toothpaste + Oral Care
After dealing with an infected root canal and a tooth extraction, I take my dental health very seriously now. Oral care is about so much more than just fresh breath—it’s part of your overall health. That’s why I became much more intentional about the products I use every single day.
I focus on cleaner toothpaste options and simple tools that support a healthy mouth and gums.
✅ Toothpaste I use:Revitin, Fygg, Risewell, Just Ingredients
✅ Oral care tools I love:tongue scraper + SURI toothbrush
2. Deodorant
This one took trial and error, but it was worth it. My old deodorants were full of synthetic fragrance and harsh ingredients that always irritated my underarms. Once I switched, the irritation went away.
✅ I love: Humble, Cleo & Coco, Agent Nateur, THAI stone
3. Shampoo + Conditioner
My scalp used to be constantly itchy and dry… I just thought it was normal. Then I learned about sulfates and parabens hiding in my hair care. Game-changer.
✅ I trust: Rahua, Evolvh, Innersense, Acure
✅ Best heat protectant:Rahua
4. Body Wash + Soap
This one was huge for my skin. I used to feel tight and dry after every shower, but now my skin feels nourished and calm.
✅ Favorites:Cockind, Aleavia, 100% Pure, Honest, Ursa Major, Dr. Bronners, OSEA (CLEANLIVING)
5. Laundry Detergent
Your clothes, towels, and sheets sit on your skin. I didn’t realize how harsh conventional detergents were until I switched and noticed less irritation.
✅ Go-to’s: Truly Free, Branch Basics, Molly Suds, Dr. Bronners
6. Household Cleaners
These were some of the most toxic products I had in my home. Once I swapped them out, I actually liked the smell of cleaning.\
✅ I use: Branch Basics, Truly Free, Force of Nature
7. Dish Soap
It took me a while to find a NON TOXIC dish soap that ACTUALLY works. This is the only one I use.
✅ I swear by: Truly Free (THE BEST!!!)
8. Candles
This was hard because I LOVE cozy scents. But I didn’t love the headaches that followed. I now only burn candles I trust, and they still smell amazing.
✅ Favorites: Fontana Candle Co, Amber Vale Home, Meaningful Mantras, Slow North
9. Skincare
When I simplified my skincare and started avoiding harsh ingredients, my skin became so much calmer. Less redness, fewer random breakouts, and a healthier glow.
✅ I rotate: OSEA (CLEANLIVING), Indie Lee, Cocokind, Clearstem (CLEANLIVINGKARLY)
10. Makeup
One of the biggest myths is that clean makeup doesn’t perform well. Some of my favorite beauty products now are clean formulas that look amazing on the skin.
✅ My top picks: RMS Beauty (KARLY-20), Saie, Honest Beauty, Ogee
✅ Daily favorite: Tinted Radiance Serum SPF 30— I wear shade Medium every day for the prettiest natural glow + coverage.
