About this listen

It’s Earth Month! Andee and Aimee are diving into the not-so-pretty truths behind beauty and cleaning products—and what we can all do to clean up our routines and the planet. From microplastics in your moisturizer to the air pollution hiding under your kitchen sink, this episode is packed with eye-opening info and easy, feel-good swaps.


In This Episode, You'll Learn:

  • Why Earth Month matters—and why it shouldn’t be a one-day wonder

  • The hidden environmental costs of beauty products (hello, microplastics and water waste)

  • How to spot greenwashing in "clean" beauty

  • Why packaging isn’t just aesthetics—it’s a sustainability statement

  • Microplastics are in more beauty products than you think—and they don’t disappear

  • Waterless beauty isn’t just trendy, it’s essential
