The Truth About Your Skin: It’s Absorbing More Than You Think

Your Skin: A Living, Breathing Organ
Woman to woman, I want to speak to your heart today—because I believe we’re in the middle of a shift. There’s something stirring in us… a quiet strength rising. We’re more aware than ever of what matters—and what to watch for. There’s a deep, passionate desire to do better—for our families, our bodies, and our future. We’re becoming more intentional, more tuned in. Not just with what we eat, but with what we clean our homes with, wash our clothes in, and put on our skin. 🌿
Summer is coming fast here in northern Michigan, and all the fun lies ahead… 🌞
🏕️ Lake days
🌻 Park picnics
👣 Bare feet in the grass
🛶 Kayaking
🍅 And gardens bursting with fresh veggies all season long
We’ve all felt it—that gut-punch moment when a favorite product suddenly changes.
👋 Hello Siete, sold to PepsiCo ☹️
👋 Burt’s Bees to Clorox ☹️
👋 Naked Juice to PepsiCo... and the list goes on.
"What you put on your body is just as important as what you put in your body. Your skin doesn't just wear products—it consumes them."
These types of changes made me personally slow down and read labels even more carefully.
One of the big ones I always investigated? Sunscreen.
We all know the familiar smell of summer on the boat or at the beach 😊
That familiar scent of sunscreen as you rub it on tiny cheeks, hoping you’re doing the right thing.
But if you’ve ever paused and wondered:
- “Is this brand really clean?”
- “Will this affect our health… our hormones?”
- “Am I doing the best I can for my kids?”
You’re not alone. I’ve asked those same things. As a mama who’s walked through childhood cancer, I became an ingredient detective. 🧪We started flipping labels and looking deeper—and what I found? Honestly, it shocked me. I used to grab whatever looked clean. #Greenwashed
- Synthetic preservatives can disrupt hormonal balance
- Petroleum derivatives may impede natural detoxification processes
- Artificial fragrances frequently trigger inflammatory responses
👉 Your skin isn’t just a barrier. It’s a sponge. A transport system.
And when it’s warm? It absorbs even more.
That’s why what we put on our skin—especially in the sun—matters more than we’ve been told.
The takeaway? The sun isn’t the problem. ☀️
The real question is: What are we putting on our skin in the name of “protection”?
We were never meant to slather on chemicals just to step outside.
You’ve got options—and you deserve to know what’s possible.
Clean, non-toxic sunscreen formulations prioritize both efficacy and biological harmony, offering protection without compromising your body's delicate systems.
And Eat2Live Tallow Sunscreen is one of them. 🌞

By choosing organic tallow skincare and non-toxic sun protection, you're not simply making aesthetic decisions—you're making profound health choices that honor your skin's true nature as a living, breathing, absorbing organ.
