Honestly… I didn’t think anyone else felt this way.
When I started reacting to perfumes I used to love, I thought it was just me. Thought I was being “sensitive.” Thought I’d have to give it all up.
But sharing little parts of my story has made one thing really clear:
I’m not alone.
So this is a big thank you, to everyone who’s messaged, commented, shared their own experience (privately or publicly), and just made this feel less isolating.
What started as a quiet shift in my lifestyle has turned into something I want to investigate and understand more deeply. I’ve been learning how to craft scent the clean, conscious way, and I’ve been diving into the truth behind what’s really in our bottles.
The more I share, the more I hear.
The more I learn, the less I can ignore.
People will say “clean perfume” is just a marketing angle. But the migraines, the skin reactions, the cloudiness? That’s not marketing. That’s my body talking.
I didn’t even know “clean beauty” was a thing before I started feeling the effects. But now I do. And I won’t un-know it.
So I’m staying curious. Asking better questions. Documenting what I find.
And I’m grateful that so many of you are here with me.
Here’s to seeing where this all leads. 🧡
Let’s keep going.
