A Striking Movement Reveals the Importance of Self-care in Your Cosmetics Routine and Beyond.
They say war isn’t pretty—but the green beauty mavens opposing the conventional cosmetics bad buys just got a whole lot prettier. Global fitness expert Tracy Anderson joined Ecco Bella founder Sally Malanga to show the world that the layers of true beauty go far deeper than primer, foundation, concealer, and blush.
It’s not just through her energetic, original technique for molding sought after bodies that Anderson takes charge of beauty; whether eating mindfully or detoxifying her cosmetics routine—or coaching Jennifer Aniston to do the same—Anderson embraces a natural, holistic lifestyle. “It’s more of a life stance,” she corrected, noting that true beauty doesn’t sweep in and out like a Hollywood fad. Instead, she obsesses over caring for her whole self and creating balance in all facets of wellbeing.
Unfortunately, society all too often sees beauty as more style than stance. It presses women to bend head over high heels to emulate celebrities and fashion moguls until they’re unrecognizable beneath layers of artificial makeup and Photoshop trickery. But for Anderson, wishing to look like someone else is not so beautiful at all. “We’re so denatured with filters, airbrushing, and lighting, and entertainment and celebrity culture that when we look in the mirror, we’re like, ‘oh, my god, what does that look like?’” said Anderson. “Well, that looks like a human being, and that’s beautiful, but we’re losing it.”
