Hi! My name is Yenny and I am the editor + founder of ecochicbeauty. I live in Washington, DC with my husband and our three adorable Chihuahuas.
I’ve been obsessed with beauty and skincare since I was a teen but made the transition over to green beauty a few years ago. It all started when I read the book No More Dirty Looks and it completely opened my eyes. I did a complete overhaul of my beauty and skincare products virtually overnight and I haven’t looked back. It was probably the best decision I ever made. Green beauty is my absolute obsession and I love discovering and trying new beauty / skincare brands and products. Over the years, I’ve realized that being a “purist” doesn’t work for my lifestyle. I found it to be too stressful and now I follow a “90/10 rule.” I believe in balance and everyone’s journey is unique, so you have do what’s best for you and your lifestyle.
Within the past couple years, I’ve been looking beyond green beauty and have applied the same passion and philosophy in other aspects of my life. Particularly in conscious, ethical, sustainable fashion and living. Since I believe that being green goes beyond beauty, I will be touching upon these other topics as well.
This blog is both a fun hobby for me as well as a creative outlet. I created this blog in hopes of helping you make better, conscious choices with beauty, skincare, fashion, and lifestyle products by providing honest and informative reviews, as well as, other helpful information and resources. I hope to inspire you as much as you’ve inspired me.
Thank you for following along with me on my journey!
–xo, Yenny
