Got green?  Sephora’s going green today and every day.

To celebrate Earth Day and all the days after, check out the Mother Earth Palette from Smashbox C
osmetics. It has four eye shadows and a blush that are all made from certified organic ingredients. Mix and match shades in medley of pigments to enhance the eyes and add a pop of color to the cheeks. It comes in a recyclable compact and carton made from sustainable materials and is printed with eco-friendly ink. 

Every time you buy one, a tree will be planted by Trees for the Future, a non-profit organization dedicated to creating sustainable environ
ments through reforestation throughout the world, $45.            


Korres Natural Products, a botanical company from Greece that has origins as a pharmacy, has a new organic line, Materia Herba, with skincare products that reduce fine lines and wrinkles, relieve stress and signs of environmental damage, and boosts collagen and elastin and feature beech tree extract and jojoba oils.  It's skincare that's only natural.
