Hi, I'm from Jamaica and I came over from The Diary of a CEO podcast. I'm here to learn, because I think my fertility has been affected by environmental toxins, and I can't wait to dive into some of your videos.
I came from the diary of a CEO as well! I was a sephora and Ulta junkie, daily full glam makeup for over 10 years and I couldn't believe everything I was hearing :( Perfumes, body sprays, I had it alll. I put a HALT after watching you, stopped using 95% of my stuff, ordered a ton of new makeup, bodycare, skincare, haircare, new cookware and clothes! I couldn't believe the plastic in clothes! I was a die hard Lulu girl, but not anymore and now I'm trying to find the best leggings out there, as well as undergarments and pjs. It's crazy how much polyester is out there and on our bodies while we sleep, workout, etc. I'm trying to do it all, thanks to you :) My husband thinks im crazy, but I am very passionate about this :) Can you please do more videos on brands/items carried in Sephora and Ulta? Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us!
Henna and/or indigo but you better do a strand test on some hairbrush hair before you commit because they are permanent for real. My hair was never healthier than when I used them.
Becareful with henna, you definitely need to commit and you absolutely cannot put any blonde/highlights in your hair until the henna has grown out of your hair.
Here from Diary of a CEO :) In the last decade I developed a cough when exposed to certain fragrances. I realized on my own that the more natural the fragrance the better I tolerate the products. Most of my personal and household products are fragrance free now. Over time I have become a lot more conscious of the all the things you discussed during your interview with Steven. I look forward to watching your channel and learning more! Much love from Canada :)
Thank you for reviewing our Flawless Serum Foundation. It's made with 70% organic ingredients, and a little bit goes a long way! its a long-wear foundation with medium to full buildable coverage
Hi Dr. Yvonne, I recently came across your insightful discussion on the *Diary of a CEO* channel, and I wanted to express how much I appreciated your explanation of toxicology. The way you broke down the study of chemicals, their mechanisms, effects, and how our bodies react to them was truly enlightening. A bit about me: I’ve been working as a contractor for nearly 10 years at one of the leading pharmaceutical companies in California, though my role is not science-related. Despite that, I’m regularly exposed to large machines like boilers, air handlers, and chillers, as you mentioned in the video. I’ve always been aware of the potential exposures in my environment, but your insights have given me a deeper understanding. I truly admire your dedication to educating the public and raising awareness on such important topics. On that note, I’d love to hear your thoughts on fizzy drinks, including sugary, diet, and zero-sugar sodas, and their potential effects. I’m someone who has been aware of these things specially product such as personal, skincare, home and kitchen, wellness and personal care since 2018 and thanks to Bobby from Flavcity who introduced me to these things although he is no where near being Toxicologist.
Thank you for sharing! Sugary and artificially-sweetened beverages are sources of additives like colors, which have been shown to affect behavior in children so I would avoid them as much as possible. Canned beverages can be sources of BPA as well, so regular consumption can lead to exposure.
So happy Stephen interviewed you on Diary of a CEO. I hardly ever wear makeup and just spent a small fortune on Bobbi Brown products! I love them, but now I’m aware of these great organic products. I don’t know what to do with the ones I just bought though! I don’t want anyone else to be exposed to harmful chemicals.
Im also here after Steve’s podcast, I will definetely follow your advice, change my pans, use roll on deodorant, etc. Thank you so much for spreading this information ❤
Please make a video about hair color the professional ones. Some companies claim that their ingredients are non-toxic, natural, and organic. Some say that has avocado and coconut oil, but is well known that chemical don't mix well with organic oils. after 25 year working in this area more women are losing their hair and getting thinner. Hope see a video soon.
Unless it’s a scent derived from 100% natural ingredients then it’s going to disrupt your endocrine system. I make my own body butter- I’m actually making some today! I could add essential oils to it but I like the natural smell it already has (chocolate). I’ve found natural perfumes but none that I love yet… also be careful of oil based perfumes even if they claim to be natural- you want to know what carrier oil they used to make it. Sometimes they will use soy 🤪
Im 31 and have been suffering of Hypothyroidism for 4 years now. I came here after the video on rhe diary of a CEO and checked almost all my makeup and essentials and half of them have parfume (although I bought them in a apparently bio chain, DM, in Italy and other products bought in farmacy... im concerned but willing to learn more. thanks for your sharing and being so helpful and clear and also very professional ❤
Dear Dr. Yvonne! Thank you so much for the work that you’re doing! All these videos are pure gold for someone like me who wants to avoid toxins but have no scientific background to make informed choices! Thank u ❤
Please post more videos Yvonne. We need regular videos 🥺. Please post videos about best healthy and budget friendly alternatives to regular toxic household items all of us have been using.
@ thank you! I’m grateful for your videos. I believe most of the subjects you discussed are important. I’ll be watching more of your videos and make more comments. Two in particular are cleaning products and personal care. It’s very hard to avoid all chemicals in this world, but we must do what more essential. Thanks! 🙏😊
Came from the diary of a CEO and now a subscriber to your channel. My biggest concern is post thyroid Cancer fully removed this year, I must protect my remaining endocrine system now.
Hi I started working for Westman Atelier recently. We talk about “safe” formulas a lot. I was just curious about your thoughts on the brand as a toxicologist. I’m very curious. Came over from Diary of a CEO. Thank you for what you are doing. I’ve started changing my choices and my life because of your help ❤
Thanks for tuning in! It’s a cleaner brand and not a bad choice. I would love to see more organic ingredients especially for the lip products since there is some ingestion 😃.
Omg thank you for this!!!!! This is soooo helpful!!! I was so overwhelmed with finding healthier alternatives in everything and this saved my sanity 😅. Thank you for making this!!! ❤
Another Stephen/Diary fan : ) I'm surprised you didn't mention 100% Pure products. They are expensive and too often out of product but I've used their products for many years and they are very clean. Thanks so much for your content and list-very appreciated.
Great point! Thanks for watching! I’m with you. I love several of their products, but being out of stock often is a major downside. I 💜 sharing low tox solutions that are as widely available as possible.
Hi, I found you via The Diary of a CEO podcast. Thank you for waking people up re toxins. I look forward to watching your videos and educating myself. I’ve been on a health journey for the past few years. Little by little transitioning everything in my home to non toxic. I even have started milling my own flour for cooking. What are your thoughts on the Merit makeup brand? Shout out to Toups & Co Organics, very clean brand (small business). Do you have a cleaning brand you recommend? Would love a video on shampoo and conditioner. Thanks again!
I would love to see reviews of the most recommended by dermatologist face and body moisturizers such Cerave, Aveeno, Cetaphil or La Roche-Posay. Are they good or are there better alternatives. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge your videos have been very helpful
Just subscribed. I found you on the Diary of CEO podcast. Thank you for sharing your knowledge about toxins with us! I will be making some changes to my beauty care products.
Thanks for tuning in! This is a great question. Evidence suggests that certain ingredients in dishwasher detergents and rinse aids contribute gut damage. One study states, “The alcohol ethoxylates present in the rinse aid were identified as the culprit component causing the epithelial inflammation and barrier damage.” I’ve got a few dishwasher products linked on my website. Here’s the link to the article mentioned pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36464527/
Heyy Can you please talk about the wave of alternative period products and period products alltogether? Alternative products often claim to be sustainable and healthier, but after taking a closer look, I'm not so sure they are. Cups are made out of medical silicone, is that safe? Panties almost always Container synthetic fibers. .... What is safe to use, what isn't? Thank you!
I’ve been on this journey overtime swapping out chemical products for organic products. Because of your videos, I’ve recently switched to all stainless steel cookware. Would you consider doing a video on the healthiest safest, shampoos and conditioners that work well especially moisturizing shampoos? I’ve done a lot of research. I use organic shampoos and conditioners that aren’t tested on animals. So far, I’ve not found a healthy shampoo/conditioner that moisturizes well. My hair is breaking and brittle and I want to find one brand or two that work so I can remain healthy and happy. Thank you for considering and thank you very much for bringing this information forward in a way that is understandable, reliable, and informative. 🤸🏻♀️
Found you after listening to the Diary of A CEO podcast. I'm excited to follow you and learn more! I would love to see a video for lotion/moisturizer and shampoo/conditioner recommendations.😊
Also here from Diary of a CEO 🤗 Thank you so much for the amazing work you do and the continuous knowledge you're sharing! I'm in the UK and the organic makeup I like to use is INIKA Organic.
Awesome! Thank you! This will help lots of Subscribers in the UK! I’ll be sure to share this brand and any others you can share. It’s challenging to know which brands are available in a particular country.
Thank you so much for your work, this is SO HELPFUL!!! All your videos are amazing and we just started to cleaning our house, we didn’t have any idea of how all the things were so toxic, from the cookware to our clean products, lotions… We are really grateful that we found you! I been struggling with my health so much and like you, started years ago looking to improve my diet and wasn’t enough, doctors doesn’t give me any sort of guidance and I kept getting worse, they told me i am infertile, I have endometriosis… all that you are saying resonates as the truth and i am excited to start my journey to sustainability and safety! Thank you so much, you inspire me in so many levels!
Thank you so much for your hard work on consumer product awareness. I first saw you on The Diary of a CEO interview. I've learned so much from you and will continue to watch your future videos and subscribe as well. I'm a hair stylist and I'm always trying to offer the non-toxic chemicals service for my clients. I'm thinking about making my own line of hair products. I have some serious allergies to some products I've been using for years. Could you please make a video about hair products with less toxic? I will really appreciate it. Once again thank you for your knowledge. This is what I call an educator. ❤
Thank you for tuning in and for protecting your health and your clients! The world needs more professionals like you 🙏🏽 Are you interested in videos specifically about hair products?
Hiii correct me if Im wrong, but Kosas concealer contains titanium dioxide which has effects on the thyroid hormone. And isnt it also like an endocrine disruptor?
Hi, I got to know you from Diary of a CEO and I learnt alot from your informative videos. Can I feedback for future videos, if you could spell out the words of the chemicals and technical terms, so when we are reading labels we know how it's spell and can learn more about the chemicals. Thanks and appreciated.
I do not wear make up. I am 82 and use only coconut oil. But would like a good lipstick to use on cheeks and lips. Saw you on CEO and loved you. Thank you lo much.
Hey thank you so much for your educational work!🙏🏻 do you also know cheaper options? I don’t have the money to spent 20-30 dollars per product but I really want to use healthier and organic products.
I watched your interview with The Diary of a CEO today and you spoke of many things that can harm us that almost all of us use. I was wondering about the atmosphere in a room that is running 3d printer(s). Being that plastic is being heated a lot so should we all vent the machine outside? I do not have one yet but would be nice to know. Thanks 🙂
Thanks for tuning in! Yes you’re right to question it. Inhaling 3D printer fumes has been shown to disrupt hormones in animal studies since the plastics may contain bisphenols A (PMID: 37350301).
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with the rest of the world! Would you be able to make a video about the best water filtering systems ?? Pros and cons please thank you!! 🙏🏼
Hello Dr Yvonne. Thank you so much for doing this amazing service. It’s really really important and highly appreciated. I came from listening to your interview on the DIARY OF A CEO. I have a question, have you ever looked into safely of RMS and Jane Iredale products? And also Tata Harper.. Thank you 🙏
Thank you very much! Appreciate your time and response. Also it’ll probably sound self explanatory, but it seems incredulous, petroleum jelly, Vaseline, how toxic is it? Should it also be avoided… since it’s in the name, Peteoleum..
Hi Dr Burkart. HOPE YOU READ THIS COMMENT :) My family is so grateful for the things we’ve learned from you. We’re detoxifying our house and I was wondering about the Vitamix blender, it has the plastic pitcher and, I saw that you have it listed on the Amazon store. I wonder if vitamix blenders are ok? I have one but have been debating if I should keep it or get a glass one ?
I can add this to the list of products to review. Generally I stay away from products with bold claims without clinical evidence to support. Lots of smoke and mirrors.
Could you please review sunscreen-makeup products like Supergoop's foundation or lip products, or even plastic-free packaged sunscreen-makeup products like Oceanly? Or popular Korean-skincare and/or fragrance-free products like Beauty of Joseon or COSRX? These brands are more accessible for me (cheap/wider-availability), so I would love to know your thoughts on these!
Hey what do u think about the ILIA line? I’ve been trying to clean my make up and I came across ILIA. Wanted to ask you before I buy their tint. Love your content, extremely helpful💕🙏
Dear Yvonne, i’m trying to get all toxic products out of my house. Is there a list of ingredients that should not be in your shampoo and conditioner? And plastic in never ok, even when it is only use for cold products, right?
I would start by avoiding “fragrance” and searching for “organic shampoo” when you’re ready to swap. This way you’ll avoid creating waste and excess cost. We can’t avoid plastic entirely, but being conscious of our choices and avoiding as much as possible is the best bet.
Hi there!! I’m in Canada.. I am very curious about your opinion on menstrual cups. I use two types of silicone cups, are they safe? If not, what types of products would you recommend? The other product I have concerns about is Invisalign which I have been wearing to straighten my teeth for the last year. I will have them removed soon, but will have to wear a retainer which is also plastic (basically like a mouthguard) at night. Alternatively, I could use a Hawley retainer but that is also partially plastic. I have had a hard time finding evidence regarding safety of these oral products. Thank you for all you do. I have been making the switch to toxin free products for the last few weeks and it has been very helpful for me to view your videos.
Thank you for everything you are doing.I was diagnosed with unexplained infertility and I am crushed and feel helpless. Trying for 2,5 years now.Could you please make a video about how to detox for fertility?
I am also from Diary of CEO , I am from Cambodia originally I love how much opportunities in USA but I am concerned about how industrial the country is , health probably not the number 1 concern here in US .. my right now concern is my children eczema ‘s causes .. please advise me what cause eczema !
@dryvonneburkart, thank you for your excellent videos! I'd like to learn more about nontoxic home furnishings and also least toxic ways to do remodeling of a kitchen for example. Can you comment and/or make a video on these? I also saw you on Diary of a CEO and just subscribed.
Hey i am from India and loved you on Diary of CEO you are doing god's work💖💖 our water is heavy can you suggest some method to filter water, like we have Kent RO/UV water purifier but it's made up of plastic and it's filtered water storage is made up of plastic, plz look into this product and also suggest how to have better water at home make a water purification video please.
Hi Yvonne, I’m also here from the Diary of CEO Channel! Thank you so much for the work you’re doing. I’m really struggling to find alternatives perfume free… most of my products are from the pharmacy and natural shops but still… Do you know any reliable UK products lists or resources? What do you think about the Yuka app? Is it trustworthy? Thank you 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thanks for tuning in! Just do the best you can with what you’ve got. Being aware is the first step and you’re already there. Yuka can help when you’re first starting out. Once you’re comfortable looking at ingredient labels you will start to spot ingredients of concern. If you want to go deeper, we teach how to master ingredient labels inside the Low Tox University.

Also here from Diary of a CEO! Here to learn and continue the move from toxic products
Welcome and thanks for being here.
Thank you so much for your hard work on consumer product awareness. I first saw you on The Diary of a CEO interview. I've learned so much from you and will continue to watch your future videos and subscribe as well. I'm a hair stylist and I'm always trying to offer the non-toxic chemicals service for my clients. I'm thinking about making my own line of hair products. I have some serious allergies to some products I've been using for years. Could you please make a video about hair products with less toxic? I will really appreciate it. Once again thank you for your knowledge. This is what I call an educator. ❤
Thank you for tuning in and for protecting your health and your clients! The world needs more professionals like you 🙏🏽 Are you interested in videos specifically about hair products?
do the tinted makeup have artificial colours? what causes the tint colour?
Thank you!!! I will share with my teen! I don’t wear makeup
Hi Yvonne 👋 Can you do a video about the toxic air that forms whilst cooking and what we can do about that? Thanks already 🙏
This is a great idea!
So Glad to have found your channel from DOACEO
Thanks for coming over! Welcome!
Hiii correct me if Im wrong, but Kosas concealer contains titanium dioxide which has effects on the thyroid hormone. And isnt it also like an endocrine disruptor?
Great question. Titanium dioxide is not a concern in cream-based topical products like sunscreen or makeup.
Hi, I got to know you from Diary of a CEO and I learnt alot from your informative videos.
Can I feedback for future videos, if you could spell out the words of the chemicals and technical terms, so when we are reading labels we know how it's spell and can learn more about the chemicals. Thanks and appreciated.
I do not wear make up. I am 82 and use only coconut oil. But would like a good lipstick to use on cheeks and lips. Saw you on CEO and loved you. Thank you lo much.
I watch the DOAC podcast all the time. Thank you for a great work Dr. Yvonne. I am following you now x ❤🎉
Hey thank you so much for your educational work!🙏🏻 do you also know cheaper options? I don’t have the money to spent 20-30 dollars per product but I really want to use healthier and organic products.
I made this list of lower cost products with safer ingredients shopmy.us/collections/508608
I’m going to check your videos about moisturizer/oils/hydration for the skin.
I was watching diary of ceo but it was a little lengthy. What I am interested in are your recommendations! Please also review products!
Thanks for watching! Check out my website for products I use dryvonneburkart.com/shop/
What do you think of ELF? They’re very affordable and widely available (in the UK). Would you say they’re non toxic?
Please provide safe options for hydrogen bottle... Thank you
Thank you for this video. Its weird, I cannot find the Lily lolo big lash mascara on Amazon.
I watched your interview with The Diary of a CEO today and you spoke of many things that can harm us that almost all of us use. I was wondering about the atmosphere in a room that is running 3d printer(s). Being that plastic is being heated a lot so should we all vent the machine outside? I do not have one yet but would be nice to know. Thanks 🙂
Thanks for tuning in! Yes you’re right to question it. Inhaling 3D printer fumes has been shown to disrupt hormones in animal studies since the plastics may contain bisphenols A (PMID: 37350301).
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with the rest of the world! Would you be able to make a video about the best water filtering systems ?? Pros and cons please thank you!! 🙏🏼
I’m a new subscriber!! Looking forward to watch your videos
Greetings from Croatia 🇭🇷🇭🇷🇭🇷
Love you Dr Yvonne.
I’d love a UK friendly version if possible!
Me too, it’s mind field out there and as you say, they don’t disclose all the ingredients they use.
This would be so helpful it is a minefield!
Can you please recommend sunblock lotion sunscreen?
Thanks for watching! You can find my sunscreen on my Shop page. I use Dakota Tallow dryvonneburkart.com/personal-care/
Hello Dr Yvonne. Thank you so much for doing this amazing service. It’s really really important and highly appreciated. I came from listening to your interview on the DIARY OF A CEO.
I have a question, have you ever looked into safely of RMS and Jane Iredale products? And also Tata Harper..
Thank you 🙏
Welcome! Tata Harper and RMS are low tox, but Jane Iredale not as much since there are some ingredients I would avoid.
Thank you very much! Appreciate your time and response. Also it’ll probably sound self explanatory, but it seems incredulous, petroleum jelly, Vaseline, how toxic is it? Should it also be avoided… since it’s in the name, Peteoleum..
Hi Dr Burkart. HOPE YOU READ THIS COMMENT :) My family is so grateful for the things we’ve learned from you. We’re detoxifying our house and I was wondering about the Vitamix blender, it has the plastic pitcher and, I saw that you have it listed on the Amazon store. I wonder if vitamix blenders are ok? I have one but have been debating if I should keep it or get a glass one ?
Thanks for this! Would love a review of ingredients in nasal sprays claiming to help prevent covid infections such as Covixyl. 🙏
I can add this to the list of products to review. Generally I stay away from products with bold claims without clinical evidence to support. Lots of smoke and mirrors.
Thank you. This was so helpful
Glad it was valuable!
Can you recommend which kind of air purifier as you recommend?
Could you please review sunscreen-makeup products like Supergoop's foundation or lip products, or even plastic-free packaged sunscreen-makeup products like Oceanly? Or popular Korean-skincare and/or fragrance-free products like Beauty of Joseon or COSRX?
These brands are more accessible for me (cheap/wider-availability), so I would love to know your thoughts on these!
Have you looked at Lady Gaga’s make up line Haus Labs? Just curious how clean they are….I’m not necessarily a fan of hers but…
Is there an ingredient cheatsheet for household cleaners?
Thank you for this! I'm going to test out the saie foundations.
You're so welcome! The products work so great for me.
how do you feel about the brand inika organic?
Thank you so much for all what u do!!!! Thank you🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You are so welcome
Thank you for this useful and important video. Do you have clean skincare product recommendations as well?
Hey what do u think about the ILIA line? I’ve been trying to clean my make up and I came across ILIA. Wanted to ask you before I buy their tint.
Love your content, extremely helpful💕🙏
Dear Yvonne, i’m trying to get all toxic products out of my house. Is there a list of ingredients that should not be in your shampoo and conditioner? And plastic in never ok, even when it is only use for cold products, right?
I would start by avoiding “fragrance” and searching for “organic shampoo” when you’re ready to swap. This way you’ll avoid creating waste and excess cost. We can’t avoid plastic entirely, but being conscious of our choices and avoiding as much as possible is the best bet.
Hi there!! I’m in Canada.. I am very curious about your opinion on menstrual cups. I use two types of silicone cups, are they safe? If not, what types of products would you recommend? The other product I have concerns about is Invisalign which I have been wearing to straighten my teeth for the last year. I will have them removed soon, but will have to wear a retainer which is also plastic (basically like a mouthguard) at night. Alternatively, I could use a Hawley retainer but that is also partially plastic. I have had a hard time finding evidence regarding safety of these oral products.
Thank you for all you do. I have been making the switch to toxin free products for the last few weeks and it has been very helpful for me to view your videos.
Thank you for everything you are doing.I was diagnosed with unexplained infertility and I am crushed and feel helpless. Trying for 2,5 years now.Could you please make a video about how to detox for fertility?
Can you please recommend sunscreen?
I can’t find any at amazon

@dryvonneburkart, please suggest best hair clor for grey hair
Could yoi please recommend me a every day cream??
@dryvonneburkart, thank you for your excellent videos! I'd like to learn more about nontoxic home furnishings and also least toxic ways to do remodeling of a kitchen for example. Can you comment and/or make a video on these? I also saw you on Diary of a CEO and just subscribed.
Great suggestion!
Can anyone recommend a more "natural" hair dye to color the hair and cover greys? Thank you!
Would like to hear you discuss chemical facial peels please. Thanks.
Great idea!
@@dryvonneburkart. Yes pls assess ELF prods. So affordable.
Hey i am from India and loved you on Diary of CEO you are doing god's work💖💖 our water is heavy can you suggest some method to filter water, like we have Kent RO/UV water purifier but it's made up of plastic and it's filtered water storage is made up of plastic, plz look into this product and also suggest how to have better water at home make a water purification video please.
Hi Yvonne, I’m also here from the Diary of CEO Channel! Thank you so much for the work you’re doing.
I’m really struggling to find alternatives perfume free… most of my products are from the pharmacy and natural shops but still… Do you know any reliable UK products lists or resources? What do you think about the Yuka app? Is it trustworthy?
Thank you 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thanks for tuning in! Just do the best you can with what you’ve got. Being aware is the first step and you’re already there. Yuka can help when you’re first starting out. Once you’re comfortable looking at ingredient labels you will start to spot ingredients of concern. If you want to go deeper, we teach how to master ingredient labels inside the Low Tox University.
Can you make a video diving into clean brands like RMS beauty?
Hello, what do you think about Kevin Murphy hair products, Rudolph Care for skincare and DeoDoc menstrual pads?
