Chemical-free, plant-based, organic skin care is not just an “alternative” to chemical-laden products, I believe it’s the only way to truly experience anti-aging and true health of the skin.

Somewhere along the line, most of us have forgotten what it means to truly live and bask in the beauty of life — or how to celebrate our own beauty. Yet every moment gives us the opportunity to create a fresh start. Imagine today is your new beginning. What would you do? How would you decide to live your life so every moment mattered?

Be Good to People - a company with a simple but powerful message

The Story
The idea for Be Good to People.® was inspired, believe it or not, by a rude experience that founder Kris Wittenberg had back in the spring of 2008 while running errands at lunch. The exact bad experience has long been forgotten but the idea that people need to be better to one another has not.

Once back in the office she exasperatingly asked, “Why can’t people just be good to people?” Given her entrepreneurial spirit and her longing for a friendlier world she researched to see if the phrase was trademarked and if the web address was taken.

Thankfully everything was available and she took that as a “sign”. She knew she had to act, so she secured both the name and the web address and Be Good to People, the brand and the movement, was born.

Social Giving

  • Everything in their line is either black or white, because Being Good to People is that simple.
  • 5% of every purchase goes into a fund from which they recognize and reward people who are being good to people, all over the world.
  • There are more than 30 Apparel and Lifestyle Accessories in the BGTP product line. Examples include environmentally friendly, stylish, reusable containers for both humans and dogs. Along with a 100% recyclable grocery tote, notepads and a journal with a biodegradable pen. BGTP has shirts, hats and infant/toddler apparel too!

Being Good to People is…

  • It’s performing simple acts of kindness, and recognizing others for their “Good.”
  • It’s a renewed feeling of hope, relief from today’s negative news.
  • It’s joy in simple things. Returning to basic, core values.
  • It’s communicating a shared belief, like-minded people spreading a positive message.
  • It’s a movement. Changing the world, one person, one kind act at a time.

Beauty is skin deep

The beauty industry is just that — an industry. There are many well-known and reputable companies out there and they are all fighting for your dollar. These companies are spending billions of dollars every year in an attempt to convince you that you really do need what they are selling. The sad and all too common fact is that even though some of their products do seem to work as they claim, the chemicals and preservatives that perform what seem like ‘miracles’, can be truly damaging to your skin in the long run.

The truth is that went it comes to your skin, less is always more, and the best anti-aging is done from the inside out.
