Clean Up Your Beauty on WGN Daytime

Chicago has a brand new lifestyle show on WGN called Daytime, and I got to drop by to share some of my favorite clean beauty finds. Check out our segment if you’re looking to spruce up your beauty routine without all that animal testing, added plastics, synthetics freagrances, harsh chemicals…well, you get the drift.
