6 Reasons Pure Haven Has My Favorite Toxin Free Products

Health & Lifestyle

February 10, 2023

Pure haven non-toxic skincare products

1. They Have A 100% Free of Toxins Promise

Pure Haven’s 100% toxin free products promise helps me sleep better at night. And as a mom of young children, I need all the help I can get! I started down the road towards a more natural, healthy lifestyle in 2014 after my autoimmune diagnosis of Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. Since then, I have spent countless hours researching ingredients and products to find the cleanest ones that actually work to help my body heal and keep my body well. Unfortunately, what often happens is that we find a really fantastic product that we really love, and then the formulation is changed to maybe make it more effective but at the cost of adding ingredients that are not healthy. This is especially true when great healthy brands get bought out by larger companies. The larger companies generally don’t have the same mission of the founding company and they’ll add preservatives and chemicals that are better for the company’s bottom line at the cost of the consumer. With Pure Haven’s 100% toxin free guarantee, I trust that I don’t have to worry about formulation changes that will negatively affect mine and my family’s health.

Pure Haven Promise. Fresh. Safe. Toxin-Free

2. Pure Haven Products Work Better Than Toxic Brands

Pure Haven‘s products actually work fantastic. One of the challenges that we often have with natural products is that they don’t work as well or work at all for that matter. While it’s extremely important that things are natural and clean, if they don’t work they’re pointless and will usually lead someone back to toxic products for the sake of effectiveness. My favorite line of Pure Haven’s products are their hair care and skin care. When it comes to hair care, I have tried so many different natural products that I was not pleased with. I would invest the time and money in trying something new with the hope that it would finally be the magical product that was both safe and effective only to be let down. Then I’d reach back out for the toxic ones that actually worked, even though they were damaging my hair. Hair care was something that I had given up on having something both clean and effective. I talked myself out of being as picky about the cleanliness of hair care products because I decided that as long as it wasn’t staying on my scalp too long or on my face or on my skin, then it probably didn’t need to be as clean. However, the reality is that the skin on your scalp is actually up to 4 times more absorbent than the rest of your skin! So your scalp ends up absorbing a lot of what is put on your hair. The other scary reality is that if you have little ones that are always up in your space bubble like I do, my hair is constantly touching them, especially since we still bedshare and their little faces are up in my hair most of the night. Another way your hair products are absorbed on your body is on your face and your hands. Just think about how many times you touch your hair - tucking it behind your ears, putting it up, twirling with it, playing with it – most women touch their hair a lot with their hands in a day. And then think about all of the things you are touching. This is another huge reason clean hair care is more important than you think!  Plus, if you wear your hair down, it’s probably all over the sides of your face and your forehead – these areas are often where you find acne and I think hair products are a huge part of this.

3. Being A Preferred Customer Makes My Life Easier

As a preferred customer, they make my life easier by having an auto ship that is set for every two months. I’ve used other products before that required a minimum order every month that I would find myself buying things I didn’t really need in order to meet that minimum so I didn’t get penalized. Pure Haven’s program is nothing like that and it doesn’t make me feel caged in like other programs. It’s super easy to log in to my account and make changes that I need or I can move it out a couple of weeks, a couple of months, or I cancel without any kind of penalty (although I don’t ever see myself doing that). Besides the benefits of automating my life, I get free products, free shipping incentives, and special deals as a preferred customer. There are some products that I do go through every two months and they stay on that auto ship most of the time, but I also use that as a time to take a quick inventory of what I’m running low on and what I need to restock. And I can do it all in five minutes or less and I don’t have to think about it again for another couple of months. They send a reminder email out several days beforehand so I remember to do this and make any changes that I need or leave it as is! The ability to skip a delivery or change the date on the delivery is also a huge bonus for me. I frequently travel for weeks at a time to visit my family in Minnesota and I may not be home to check and see what I need so I’ll often shift those deliveries forward a couple weeks or change it to the next month so I can actually look at what I need. I also have myself set up as a preferred customer with a delivery to my parent’s home so I can make sure to have my clean products there without having to pack so much, especially since I usually spend a few weeks there at a time and don’t want to suck it up and use what my parents already have.

4. Pure Haven Is A One-Stop Shop For Most Of Our Household Needs

Pure Haven is a really comprehensive line of non-toxic products. I buy basically all of my cleaning and home products, skin care, hair care, and child and baby products through them. It’s like the convenience of Walmart but for non-toxic products. I really dislike Walmart, or at least physically going into the store because it’s very overstimulating for me. But what I love about Walmart is that I can get most of what I need for my home when I’m there and it’s super convenient. That’s what Pure Haven does for me online but with the necessity that everything is 100% toxin free. Of course, I can’t get clothes or groceries or craft supplies from Pure Haven like I can from Walmart, but for most of my basic day-to-day needs, I am able to order from Pure Haven and get it shipped right to my door! Deodorant, dishwasher detergent, mascara, surface cleaner, moisturizer, hand soap, bug spray, lotion, detangling spray sunscreen, bodywash, shampoo, conditioner, hairspray, dry shampoo, diaper rash cream, nipple ointment, laundry detergent, stain spray, and the list goes on and on. As a busy mom, I need convenience and a healthy home and Pure Haven makes that so much easier!

5. Pure Haven Non-Toxic Skin & Hair Products Have Expiration Dates

Now, I know many people might find this as a con, but I truly believe it is a pro of Pure Haven products. When something like skin and hair care doesn’t have an expiration date, that often means that they are filled with preservatives, and other fillers and chemicals that are very unhealthy and unnatural for our bodies. While I want to preserve my youth, preservatives are not the way to do it! Also, when things have an expiration date, you’re more likely to actually use them and not have them sitting in the back of your cupboard. I have never been great at maintaining a consistent skin care routine until I started using Pure Haven. Of course, a huge part of why I’ve actually maintained a consistent routine for the past couple of years is that Pure Haven products are fantastic and they make my skin look and feel great. But the other part of that is that I know that if I don’t use them consistently they may expire before I get to use them and I hate wasting money.

6. Fantastic Customer Service

Pure Haven really has the best customer service. I once had a very large shipment (one of my first orders when I was establishing all of the products in my home and not just restocking) that never arrived. I was not so patiently waiting for my products to come and they never did. I got shipment updates to show that it was shipped and delivered, but no package. I contacted customer service and they sent a totally new shipment free of charge, no questions asked. I was totally panicking that I just threw away a couple hundred dollars for nothing, but they fixed it without batting an eye. Another amazing aspect of their incredible customer service is that they have a guarantee that if you try one of their products and don’t totally love it, they’ll refund your money. And it’s not just if you try it a couple of times and don’t love it, they actually want you to try the whole bottle before determining that you don’t actually like the product, because with many natural products it takes a few usages to get used to the difference between clean and toxic and they really want you to try it. I do believe there’s a time limit on it but I think it’s up to 30 or 60 days. Thankfully, I’ve never had to reach out regarding this because I’ve yet to try a product that I didn’t love and needed a refund for.

Are You Ready To Invest In Clean Products With All Of These Benefits?

If you think that Pure Haven sounds like a good fit for you and your family, the best route is to become a preferred customer. As I’ve mentioned, there are perks to being a preferred customer like free products, free shipping, autoship, and special deals. To become a preferred customer you do have to start with a preferred customer bundle. As I’m writing this, they have 4 different bundles that you can buy to start. They’ve recently added some more affordable bundles to make it easier for people to get started. They have an essentials household product bundle and a skin care bundle for $150 for those who want to get started with a smaller commitment and budget. Or they have a more comprehensive bundle for household products or skin care that is $299 that has a wider variety of products. But if you are more conservative and just want to try one of their products to get started without buying a bundle, you can do that but without the benefits of being a preferred customer. If I had to choose just one product that is my absolute favorite (and a favorite in my household), it would be the supergreens shampoo and conditioner. My husband sometimes struggles with dandruff or scalp psoriasis (we haven’t quite figured out which) and this shampoo/conditioner has eliminated his need for using head and shoulders (which is SUPER toxic). It also eliminated both of my kids’ residual cradle cap that took foreverrrrr to get rid of. So if you wanted to try just one product but had no idea which to choose, that’s what I would recommend!
