This week on THE SKINNY CONFIDENTIAL HIM & HER PODCAST…
( 0:55 ): Welcome back to TSC HIM & HER Show. #676: Today, we’re sitting down with Emilie Toups, mom of five, homesteader, and owner of Toups and Co Organics, a skincare and makeup brand dedicated to creating the cleanest products on the market. Emilie was first introduced to nontoxic skincare when she healed her daughter’s eczema with tallow balm, an ancient remedy made from beef fat. Since then, Emilie has become a pioneer for “ancestral skincare” and nontoxic living, inventing and reimagining products that are effective and safe enough to eat. We have a conversation today about making the shift to a non-toxic lifestyle, what changes happen when you ditch toxic household products, and the truth behind the food industry in the US.
