Ok… This is a little embarrassing. I literally JUST stumbled upon a site that is going to change my life! (And hopefully the lives of my lovely readers) It’s no secret that there is a huge shortage of quality online stores that carry a wide variety of all-natural and organic beauty products that have been carefully edited to exclude harmful ingredients. Enter: Spirit Beauty Lounge! Kind of like a Sephora for Organic Beauties, they carry a wide range of organic and/or natural products that adhere to a strict list of do’s and don’ts (including NO harmful chemicals, no animal testing, recyclable and/or biodegradable packaging, and actual potency of the product), and they carry some of my favorite brands! Check out great beauty gear by SkinnySkinny, RMS Beauty, Priti, and Pangea Organics.
Just from my initial, super excited sweep of the site, here are some of my top picks:
RMS Beauty Lip2Cheek has been one of my favorite products since I got one in a gift bag from the release party for Pure Food & Wine’s latest cookbook. It comes in a great palette of colors that look great on lips AND cheeks, and the ingredients are organic and super potent.
RMS also makes this amazing and versatile Raw Coconut Butter, which serves as a great moisturizer for face and body, a super nourishingleave-in product for hair (great for dry ends!), and an easy makeup remover. Coconut oil is deeply moisturizing, and has anti-aging, anti-bacterial and anti-oxidant properties.
In addition to all of their awesome, non-toxic nail polishes, in all the best seasonal colors, this Soy Nail Polish Remover by Priti is an absolute must-have. It is totally green, with no formaldehyde
Intelligent Nutrients Organic Volumizing Spray is another great, organic, multi-functional beauty bad-ass. It embodiesthe hair with tons of volume, activates curls, and is great to use between showers as a water-free hair refreshing tonic! Plus it won awards from everyone that matters, like Elle Mag and Fig+Sage. A+
