Freedom Glow Lip Glosses 

From scents to skincare, make-up to minerals, these new organic products have got you covered—for Earth Day and every day.  Score them at your favorite store, online or even on TV.

Check out Revolution Organics first-ever color collection, called “Freedom,” debuting today on QVC.  It’s 100% natural cosmetics—the “free” comes from it’s being free from just about anything synthetic—there are no chemicals, parabens, mineral oil or artificial ingredients.  There’s no animal testing.  The colors are hot—go for the Organics Freedom Glow Beauty Balm-for lips and cheeks.  Lots of pigment.  Just a single swipe does it. And the Organics Freedom Glow Lip Glosses—ranging from pale to brights, are great and easy to apply.  Even the primary packaging is recyclable.  

 

I like the “wow!” factor of new, organic Pür Rocks ($22.50), which brighten and bring out color in eyes, cheeks and lips—sort of a one-step, multi-tasking wonder you can throw in your bag and put on when you need a bit of punch.  Jewel tones of Garnet and Pink Zircon in pressed mineral “rocks” work with most complexions and enhance the “girl” in you.  At purminerals.com

Raw food nutritionist and beauty expert Kimberly Snyder founded Envision Beauty with the concept of raw food in mind—feeding skin with everything it needs and nothing it shouldn’t have on it.  She created “The Solution,” an all-in-one facial moisturier packed with antioxidents and vital nutrients that has no parabens, synthetics or oils.  It’s an “it” skincare product with a celebrity following, including Kristen Bell, Sophia Bush, Jane Alexander and Anjelica Huston. envision-beauty.com

For girls on the go—solid perfumes can’t be beat.  They’re a smart gal’s beauty-must have. The Soap & Paper Factory’s new Solid Perfumes are hand-made and natural in an eco-friendly, portable jar. They come in super scents and with just a swipe, you’re “scents-ational.”  At Soapandpaperfactory.com

A standby with a new twist is four variations of Jergens Naturals Daily Moisturizers.  They’re 90% natural, are paraben-free and the packaging is recyclable. With over 90% natural ingredients, you’ve got the heritage of a brand women trust with the new-now of green.  Jergens uses vegetale-derived ingredients, such as Jojoba Oil, Agave, cactus extracts, grapeseed oil, blueberry and pomegranate extracts, yogurt, chamomile, aloe vera, mint leaf and white tea extracts.

There are five Naturals Daily Moisturizers for every skin need:  Hydrate Daily Moisturizer, Renew Daily Moisturizer, Soothe Daily Moisturizer and Refresh Daily Moisturizer.  Affordable luxury for the skin—naturally, at drugstores and retailers or jergens.com.
