Why All-Natural, Toxin-Free Living Matters for Your Skin


When we say a product is “toxin-free,” it means it's free of harmful ingredients like parabens, sulfates, phthalates, synthetic fragrances, and artificial dyes. These chemicals, while effective in preserving or creating lather and scent, are linked to skin irritation, hormone disruption, and even long-term health issues. In contrast, all-natural products rely on plant-powered ingredients to nourish and treat the skin without side effects or health risks. When you make the shift to toxin-free products, you’re prioritizing ingredients that align with your body’s natural processes.

What's Wrong With Silicone in Hair Care? The Truth Behind...


When silicone coats your hair, it locks out moisture and weighs it down. This means that expensive “moisturizing” hair masks can’t even penetrate your strands. In an attempt to restore shine, you keep adding more silicone-based products, only to get trapped in a cycle of dryness and damage.

In the beginning...

I've always had a passion for plants and a desire to protect the environment. It was compounded in 2012 when my sister with Multiple Sclerosis brought me a book that started me on a vegan journey. The research I did took me from diet-related illness to herbal medicine. It didn't take me long to conclude that the chemicals and toxins we are surrounded by each day are more detrimental to our health than we know. I made it my personal mission to avoid as many chemicals as I could. Of course, the first thing I looked at after what I put in my mouth was what I put on my skin. What I was looking for was not on the market at the time so I had to resort to making my own personal care products. At first, I missed the strongly-scented perfumes and the unnaturally creamy lotions, but soon I began noticing my hair was stronger and my skin was brighter. Now, after almost a decade of good health and more requests than I can count, I am able to bring those products to the people searching for them in a clean, low-waste, sustainable way.

The Balance name has been important to me because life is a balance. It would be impossible to live completely chemical-free or eat only the healthiest of foods, and let's be honest, it wouldn't be any fun either... but if you can replace just one chemical with a plant-derived, good-for-you ingredient then you are already living better.

I hope you love our products as much as I do. Cheers, to living your best life!
