Cleaner, greener cosmetics that work as well as (if not better than!) your current favorites.
If you’ve been following our advice this month, then you’re probably already feeling cleaner and healthier this new year. It’s time your beauty products followed suit; this slideshow will help you ditch your go-to products in favor of healthier, less toxic options. We tested them all and loved the results enough to make the switch for good. Yes, you will have to fork over some extra money to upgrade to most of these greener options, but we believe that your health—and Mother Nature’s—is totally worth the added cost.
... then you’ll love Avalon Organics Smoothing Grapefruit & Geranium Refreshing Shampoo ($9.45, avalonorganics.com): The yummy, fruity-floral scent of this shampoo is similar to Garnier’s, but much more natural, as it comes from organic grapefruit and geranium essential oils. The wash creates an amazing lather unlike other green shampoos and leaves hair soft, shiny, and frizz-free, without weighing down tresses.
