Uncomplicated clean + acne safe makeup 💄

Comment MAKEUP and I’ll send you links to all the products and shades I used for this look!

I especially want to shout out the new “Latte” lip liner from Lauren Brooke | Organic Makeup & Skincare formulated in collaboration with my dear Brianna • Clean Beauty | Nontoxic Living | Wellness 🫶🏻

The grocery store is full of “healthy” brands owned by the same massive corporations. Especially after the avocado oil/olive oil scandal, there’s no better time to double down and support independently owned brands, that haven’t sold out. This is part 2, so don’t forget to see part 1 from last week!

The brands here are worth knowing about and supporting, and I personally use and love all of them.

Save on Raaka Chocolate with code GBOOTS15 and on YAYA'S EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL with code GREENBOOTLIFE 🫶🏻

SAVE this for your next grocery run and comment a brand I should add to part 3!

Remember: Always check the ingredients, even when you TRUST the brand, because they tend to change without warning.

Find out the only truly safe avocado oil you can buy right now ➡️

In 2020, UC Davis did another study, looking at avocado oil authenticity:
📣of 36 private labeled avocado oils, 31% were pure and 36% of advertised quality
📣lower-priced oils were more likely to be tainted with other oils.

One of the few oils that passed the purity testing then were from Primal Kitchen, Chosen Foods and Mariannes Harvest (still pure). But now that the 2026 study showed Primal Kitchen and Chosen Foods products didn’t pass the avocado oil purity testing, I’m a lot less confident in buying their avocado oils.

Find out all my favorite healthy oils to cook with in the last slide! Note that olive oil has a very low smoke point, so it should not be used for higher temp cooking.

What do you cook with?

Most importantly: I will never recommend you anything I wouldn’t use myself, and I have high standards 🫶🏻

The study that shook us all up: what now? 🥑

🗞️To refresh, UC Davis conducted a study that found major issues with products claiming to use pure avocado oil, including the tested salad dressings, U.S.-made mayonnaises, and 93% of avocado-oil-labeled chips failing purity testing.

⬅️In last week’s post, I shared the full list of what products failed the study testing. Now here’s the list of the products that PASSED:

💚Dressings

Bella Sun Luci Sonoma Vinaigrette (100% olive)
Bragg Organic Vinaigrette (100% extra virgin olive)
California Olive Ranch Balsamic Vinaigrette (extra virgin olive)

🫙Mayo and Sauces

Grove AvoYeah! Mayo Sauce
Grove AvoYeah! Garlic Aioli
Graza “Original” Mayo (olive pomace + extra virgin olive)
Graza “Fancy” Mayo (100% extra virgin olive)

🥑Avocado oil chips (*failed AND passed*)

Lesser Evil Moonions (organic avocado)
Simply Tostitos Sea Salt & Avocado Oil Tortilla

🫒Olive oil chips (the comparison group)

Trader Joe’s Kettle Cooked Olive Oil
Graza Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Torres Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Lay’s Baked BBQ Potato Crisps with Olive Oil
Boulder Canyon Olive Oil Classic Sea Salt Kettle (failed and passed)

Swipe to the last slide to see the oils, mayos, dressings and chips I would recommend (expanded!), since I wouldn’t recommend many of the passed products from the list above; they often contain less than ideal ingredients in them I try to avoid.

Remember, avocado oil is NOT the enemy... we just need to be more careful and know what we’re buying and choose brands that prioritize purity, transparency, and aren’t controlled by big corporations.
