It seems like so many beauty brands are going clean, but what does that even mean? And what really works? Our friend We are back on Daytime Chicago to showcase some of the brands that are making strides to keep the nasties out of our beauty routine!
Let’s start with the OG of clean cosmetics. Before it was ever called clean, you’d hear about mineral or naturally derived. Youngblood has been around as an industry leader in mineral beauty for more than 25 years.

•More than 25 years ago, Youngblood Mineral Cosmetics and Skincare’s founder developed the brand with one mission in mind: to offer a collection of ultra-luxury products focused on incorporating only the finest, naturally derived ingredients; they were one of the first brands of its kind in the Clean Beauty and Mineral Cosmetics space.
The brand Leaf People is handmade by an herbalist, and the brand’s mission states this:
🌿Protect the plants and the planet🌿5% of our sales are donated to charity🌿Promote vegetarianism🌿

The novel ingredient, Bacillus Lysate, has significant UV-shielding properties in greater ranges than most UV filters and as the first cosmetic product certified by the Space Foundation, Bacillus Lysate is a safer, natural alternative to the harmful chemicals used in most sunscreens. Delavie Sciences’ Aeonia Age Defying Serum utilizes their patented ingredient, Bacillus Lysate, the first biological cosmetic that is Space Certified Technology™ by the Space Foundation™. Bacillus Lysate has been proven to significantly reduce UVA-induced skin damage as well as increase hyaluronic acid production in cells, and anti-aging genes. The Age Defying serum is clinically proven to decrease fine lines and wrinkles. Delavie was co-founded by Dr. David Sinclair, a distinguished Harvard geneticist with an expertise in longevity.
