Earth Friendly Products for Earth Day!

 

Earth Day is just around the corner, and in case you haven’t been too kind to the planet, it’s not too late to start now! Rejuvenate your spirit and save the planet by using products from brands that are committed to promoting natural beauty without compromising the beauty of the earth. Packaged and housed in biodegradable, planet-friendly materials, these nourishing, naturally-formulated products from ONE, L’Occitane and Lavanila allow you to pamper your skin while saving the planet:

The earth-friendly way to shampoo…

ONE Solid Shampoo Bar  Target stores, Target.com, Walgreens.com

An earth-friendly (and travel-smart) concentrated formula equivalent to three 8 oz. bottles of shampoo in one recyclable cardboard container—no plastic in sight. With every shampoo, you can cut down on waste as you naturally nourish and cleanse.

I have tried this shampoo in the past and I just love it. It comes in a handy tin too. I ended up giving it to Chauncey to use for swim practice. He has broken so many tops off of plastic shampoo bottles when they fall on the tile in the shower. Now he doesn’t have to worry and there is no messy bottle to leak in his bag.

Love your lips but don’t neglect the planet…

ONE Triple Play Shimmer Lipgloss Trio  Target stores, Target.com, Walgreens.com

With two different kissable flavors and gorgeous colors, wear your lipgloss alone or layered for customized beauty. Glosses come in a planet-friendly aluminum tin with a bamboo brush for application. Take it everywhere for a quick lip touch up.

I received this wonderful lip gloss trio to review. I love the little case and the colors are great. The gloss is easy to apply with the little brush (I don’t like finger application) and it feels good on my lips and lasts for hours.

The organic way to firm up…

L’OCCITANE Almond Tonic Body Oil  L’Occitane boutiques nationwide; usa.loccitane.com

This 100% natural origin and certified organic body oil effectively fights dry skin and improves skin’s natural tone with abundant amounts of almond oil (rich in omega-6) and cameline oil (rich in omega-3). The oil also helps to stimulate micro-circulation and waste elimination. L’Occitane’s work with Almond producers in Provence, France has essentially revived Almond production in the region. The production is sustainably managed and completely traceable and localized.
