Green Beauty Tip #4
Start Shopping
Now that you know why you want to use green beauty products, how to go about making the switch from conventional products, and even have a few diy beauty remedies in your plan of attack, it is time to learn where to shop for the safest and most effective natural beauty brands.
Below are my favorite green beauty stops:
Saffron Rouge – Known as the Sephora of organic beauty, Saffron Rouge is a one-stop-shop for organic skin, body and hair care. They carry top organic brands and hold to strict standards. Chat live with a customer service rep to help with any questions and choose free samples with every order. A favorite at Saffron Rouge: Primavera Skin Care.
The Nature of Beauty – Carrying a wide variety of natural and organic beauty brands, The Nature of Beauty even has a section of natural clothing and offers samples for a tiny price ($.01). A favorite at NOB: Rare El’ements Hair Care.
Caren Online – Caren carries the purest of the pure in skin care, with products from several trusted brands. Not sure which products are for you? No problem, Caren offer Try Me! Sizes at an economical price that last longer than your usual sample size so you can try a few and make your choice. A favorite at Caren: Soleo Organics Sunscreen.
Bubble & Bee – This cute as a button shop offers their own brand of natural, hand-made products. Yummy lip balms, super hydrating Body Butta and the cutest labeling you’ve ever seen. A favorite at Bubble & Bee: Pit Putty in Geranium Lime Deodorant.
Lavera -- What can I say about this brand but “I Love It!” Safe, natural products that work and smell just like conventional products. A favorite at Lavera: Sunless Tanner.
This should help get you started shopping. Stay tuned next week when we will talk budget beauty vs. luxury.
Something new at OBS
Visitors often write in asking questions about a product, brand, ingredient or other green beauty matter which I answer by email and sometimes add to my blog. Well, as of this week, these questions and answers have a home of their very own. Go to Organic Beauty Rap, ask your question by clicking the link on the top right-hand side and I will post the answer. Or maybe you have a bit of advice of your own, so go ahead and post your comment to any question. My intention is that this q&a forum will become a place for us to share our knowledge. Check it out and let me know what you think.
It’s Give-Away Time
That’s right, I will begin running weekly give-aways and specials on OBS. Be sure to check in each week and see what we have going on!
I am starting a Green Beauty Tips post that will appear each Friday. If you would like to receive these weekly tips by email, please sign up here.
