Why We Made the Switch to Organic Fashion: A Journey of Health, Passion, and Purpose
At BeachCandy, we’ve always held a vision of creating more than just clothing. Since our founding, our mission has been to design swimwear and apparel that make women feel confident, beautiful, and genuinely connected to the garments they wear. But as our brand grew, so did our awareness of the profound impacts that fabrics and production processes can have on health and wellness. This awareness sparked a transformation—a journey toward organic fashion that has become a core part of who we are.

A Founder’s Mission for Wellness
For our founder, Brit, the shift to organic was deeply personal. BeachCandy began as a way to empower women to feel their best, but as she learned more about the daily exposure to harmful chemicals and their impact on health—including her own—her vision expanded. This journey naturally led her to prioritize fabrics that not only enhance beauty but also support physical well-being.
In learning more about traditional textile production, Brit was troubled by the harsh chemicals and synthetic materials commonly used in conventional clothing. Many synthetic fabrics are treated with toxic pesticides, formaldehyde, and flame retardants—all of which have been linked to skin irritation, hormone disruption, and even cancer. Determined to make a change, she began the search for healthier, safer alternatives, leading BeachCandy on a journey to become a brand that prioritizes organic materials, sustainability, and wellness.

Why Organic Matters for Health
When it comes to skin health, the fabrics we wear matter more than we often realize. Our skin is our largest organ, absorbing everything that comes into contact with it. When clothing is made from conventional cotton or synthetic fabrics, it often contains residual chemicals from pesticides, dyes, and treatments, which can linger on the fibers long after production. For sensitive skin, or even those who are health-conscious, these chemicals pose a risk, leading to rashes, allergies, and other skin irritations.
Organic fabrics, on the other hand, are grown and processed without the use of toxic chemicals. Choosing organic cotton and hemp means our clothes are free from harmful residues that can irritate the skin. These materials are naturally breathable and hypoallergenic, reducing the risk of breakouts and skin irritation. For us, it’s about offering our customers the peace of mind that comes with knowing that their clothing is truly clean and safe to wear.

The Wellness Benefits of Organic Fibers
Organic clothing doesn’t just benefit your skin; it enhances your overall comfort and well-being. Natural fibers, such as organic cotton and hemp, are far more breathable than synthetic options, which means they allow for better airflow and natural moisture-wicking. This is especially important in warm weather and active settings, where synthetic fabrics can trap heat and moisture, leading to discomfort.
Moreover, organic fabrics are biodegradable, unlike synthetics that release microplastics into the environment with each wash. By choosing organic, we’re not only protecting our health but also reducing the environmental burden on the planet, a choice that echoes our commitment to health on a global scale.

A Journey of Passion, Purpose, and Transparency
Our founder’s journey to organic fashion was about making more than a fashion statement—it was about creating a legacy of wellness. Her commitment to health, both personally and professionally, shapes every choice we make at BeachCandy. This dedication to transparency and quality is what inspired us to seek out suppliers who share our values and ensure that each piece is created with integrity and care.
Switching to organic fashion means each garment we offer aligns with our values of wellness, longevity, and quality. We want our customers to feel as good as they look, knowing that every piece they purchase from BeachCandy is free from toxic residues, ethically crafted, and designed with their health in mind. We believe that fashion should never compromise well-being, and we’re proud to be part of a growing movement toward clean, organic fashion.

How Organic Aligns with a Holistic Lifestyle
For those already on a wellness journey, choosing organic fashion is a natural extension of a holistic lifestyle. Our founder knows that true wellness goes beyond diet and exercise—it’s about surrounding yourself with products that support your health, inside and out. By choosing organic, you’re not only investing in your own health but also supporting a shift toward more ethical, sustainable practices that benefit everyone.
BeachCandy’s organic collection isn’t just about beautiful, eco-friendly fabrics; it’s about aligning with a lifestyle that values wellness, integrity, and connection to nature. We believe that the energy of each garment is influenced by the love, care, and purity that goes into its creation. When you wear organic, you’re supporting a positive cycle of health and well-being that extends from farm to fabric, and ultimately, to your skin.
