As with many areas of wellness, it starts with awareness. A study of more than 700 people found that those who read labels in an attempt to reduce personal exposure to potentially harmful chemicals had lower levels of them in their bodies. The study was conducted by the Silent Spring Institute, a scientific research organization studying the link between endocrine-disrupting chemicals and breast cancer.

It was early March, and Los Angeles designer Katie Hodges had just set a construction date for her latest project, a Studio City house that Cupcakes and Cashmere founder Emily Schuman had recently purchased with her husband. A full renovation of the kitchen had been finalized; new bathrooms were in the works. And then COVID-19 hit.
“It threw a big wrench in our plans,” recalls Hodges. But rather than hit pause indefinitely, she and Schuman decided to re-strategize.
