Everyone is going green these days. It is important to the future of our environment and protecting it for future generations to come so that they can have a great quality of life. Well going green is not just buying a hyriad car, or recycling, or starting to composite. You can also go green in the cosmetics you purchase. Going green in cosmetics is using organic products that are paraben free, do not animal test, they use all natural ingredients and the packaging is recyclable. A lot of companies offer these products and the big powerhouses like L’Oreal, Estee Lauder, and Revlon are also developing products for this market. Besides helping the environment organic products are good for you. Many cosmetic products are full of chemicals and organic products are not. Organic cosmetic companies make cleansers, moisturizers, eye shadows, lipstick, and blush. We are not really sure what the long term effects of putting chemicals on your skin, even though their as not been research to prove that cosmetics that are full of chemicals are harmful. Why not use something that is good for your face and body as well as the environment. Also just because a cosmetic maker claims that a product is green, make sure you read your labels. These are my top picks.
