When it comes to beauty products, there are countless options from several lines. This Earth Day, stay environmentally conscious by supporting all-natural ingredients in products and recycled packaging. Here are the top beauty products that not only make you look your best, but keep the earth looking beautiful as well.
Foundation:
Ecco Bella Natural Liquid Foundation ($25.95) comes with UVA/UVB sunscreen coverage and has organic herbs, antioxidants, aloe vera and vitamin E to keep your skin looking its healthiest. Another trusty concealer for your skin is RMS Beauty “Un” Cover-Up ($36). Boasting 100 percent natural ingredients, this product will enhance and rejuvenate your skin while covering up blemishes and pores.
Lip:
The Josie Maran cosmetics line offers a wide range of beauty products with all-natural ingredients. One of their most popular products is the Magic Marker Lip & Cheek Stain ($19). This product comes in nine eye-catching colors, including “jitterbug,” a neon pink and “jive,” a tangerine shade, and conveniently gives both your lips and cheeks a splash of color. The paraben-free, certified vegan Magic Marker is formulated with hyaluronic acid and sugar extracts, which helps naturally smooth and plump lips.
Hair:
Using eco-friendly, all-natural hair care products is the perfect way to help keep your mane looking full and healthy. John Masters Organics “Bare: Unscented Shampoo” and “Detangler,” both priced at $14.50, are fragrance and sulfate free, made with certified organic ingredients and compatible for all hair types. Organix also offers a huge line of organic hair products. The most popular product perfect for warmer weather is the Moroccan Sea Salt Spray ($5.74), packaged in recycled eco-friendly bottles. This weightless salty spray helps create soft beachy waves in your hair while keeping it moisturized.
Skincare:
The most important part of a makeup regime is thoroughly removing it at night to have flawless and clean skin. The new Neutrogena Naturals skin care line offers the “Fresh Cleansing + Makeup Remover” ($7.49). Made of Peruvian tara seed, this makeup remover is rich in Vitamin C, Vitamin B and complex sugars that will keep your skin moisturized while still stripping away the makeup. Also try the “Purifying Facial Cleanser” ($7.49), 90 percent naturally derived and full of willowbark containing a beta hydroxy acid to detoxify pores from dirt and oils.
