Earth Day Beauty Buys: Best in Organic Skin Care
Sustainability and eco-friendly products utilize environmentally sensitive methods, including energy efficiency, recyclable and biodegradable materials.
But beware, just because a product claims to be natural, doesn’t mean it is organic. Be sure to read the label and check for official seals from legitimate organizations.
Over the past year I have tried a ton of products, and these are some of my standout favorites.
Skincare
Cleanser:
Bar—Sibu Beauty Sea buckthorn facial soap
This bar soap is gentle and leaves your skin feeling fresh, not tight like other bar soaps. I even suds right up over my eyes.
Cleansing oil—Vapour Beauty Clarity Makeup Removing Cleansing Oil
Jojoba oil and botanicals make this cleanser ideal for even the most sensitive skin. Removes makeup and my skin is refreshed and balanced.
Moisturizers:
Ole Henriksen Truth Revealed™ Super Crème SPF 15
The benefits of super anti-oxidant Vitamin C and SPF makeup this a multi-tasking green treat.
Avalon Organics Restructuring Night Crème
Black skin shows signs of aging by losing its elasticity. This cream helps keep your skin “uplifted.”
Scrubs:
Alba Botanica Rainforest Gentle Acai Renewal Scrub
Super gentle exfoliant that gets the job done.
A great scrub that doubles as an exfoliating cleanser.
