In today’s marketplace, the skin care industry presents us with a multitude of options, so much so that it can be confusing when we are looking to purchase skincare items.

Fortunately, we are also in a time in which we have increased awareness around a product’s list of ingredients and the chemicals we now know we should avoid if our goal is daily optimal health.

With that, I’d like to introduce Good & Simple Face and Body Balms.

Good & Simple is a handcrafted, hand-poured line of face and body balms formulated with premium, wholesome ingredients. My sister and I created Good & Simple out of a desire to bring more simple and clean options into the skin and body care market in a purposeful way. After years of making our own skin and body care solutions for ourselves, our families, and close friends, we took a leap to share our formulations on a bigger scale. With that, Good & Simple was born.

We are a family-owned and operated, independent business. We are handcrafted, hand-poured, micro-batch and operate in the state of Michigan. Everything we put in the balms is on the label. No preservatives, emulsifiers, or hormone disrupting chemicals. No fancy jargon, just simple and easy to pronounce ingredients.

Our primary ingredient is grass-fed, grass-finished, pasture-raised beef tallow from farmers practicing regenerative and organic farming. By selecting this premium ingredient, we draw from the wisdom of our ancestors and support regenerative farming practices that allow our earth to flourish. We love to use what we make, and we’re excited and proud to offer them to you.

 

Our Philosophy

Clean and wholesome ingredients.

Less products, more uses.

Empowered health.

Just good & simple skin and body care.

We create face and body care products for the conscious consumer. Our balms are nutrient-dense, nourishing for your skin, and serve as a multi-purpose solution to your skin’s variety of needs.

I invite you to take a look around Good & Simple and discover how our face and body balms can serve your unique skin and body care needs. We cover every ingredient that we use in our balms on our “Ingredients” page, there is a lot of information and we encourage you to dig in. We are 100% transparent in our ingredients list because that is what we expect.

You may also want to read some of our customer’s testimonials and see how the balms have helped support their needs.

I can personally attest to how well and quickly they assist the body’s natural healing process. I have used our balms on curling iron burns, dry winter heels, bruises, scrapes & cuts, bug bites, sore muscles (post-workout), after sun care, etc. I also use our balms as my daily all over body moisturizer as well as my daily face/neck/chest moisturizer.

I keep my morning skincare routine extremely simple:

Wash face (bar of clean soap) + Exfoliate (2-3 times/week) + Apply Balm

That is it for now and I love how quick and easy it is. Maybe it will change as it should if needed, but this works great for me right now.

Also, available for a limited time only is our Summer Face & Body Balm (1 oz. jar ($25)).

Comment or send me an email regarding any questions you may have. Always happy and excited to talk about Good & Simple balms and how they can help you.

 

xoxo,

Anne
