Celebrate Earth Month in Style With Our Favorite Clean Beauty Brands
When it comes to our food, the Earth-friendliest choice is to go organic and clean, but what about our beauty staples?
While we're (hopefully) not eating our lipsticks, many beauty products contain mystery ingredients that are sitting on our skin all day long. Plus, many glitter-infused picks tend to contain non-biodegradable microplastics that can end up polluting our oceans when we wash them off into the sink.
So, if you want to give your beauty routine the green treatment — for the sake of yourself and Mother Earth — then try swiping on some clean, natural beauty alternatives. When there's a will, there's a way to have great skin, hair, and perfect makeup without the toxins.
Below, we're highlighting some of our favorite clean beauty brands that you need to stock up on, stat:
