Green Beauty Products
By Guest Contributor, Ebony Staton Weidman
When it comes to beauty products I am a products junkie! But I recently learned that a lot of my obsession wasn’t good for the environment—polluted water, was non-biodegradable, and in some cases was dangerous for me to use on my skin.
My advice: Read your labels. Anything with more than 3 syllables probably has a ton of bad preservatives in them. Chuck anything with parabens, petroleum, artificial color, or that may have been tested on animals.
Looking for some beauty products that you can feel environmentally good about? Here are a few I recommend. They are all natural, plant-based, smell yummy and contribute to a good environment and overall fabulousness:
1) Bobbi Brown
2) Aveda
3) Origins
4) Carol’s Daughter
5) Kiss My Face
