As we gear up for a season of gratitude, and a brand new year shortly after, we’re looking for simple ways to integrate eco-friendly habits into our daily lives. We want to use our dollars to support brands that help us help our environment. Whether you’re hunting for great gifts or re-stocking on makeup and skincare, why not give these sustainable beauty brands a go?
One of our favorite places to shop for clean, values-driven beauty is The Detox Market. They are just as obsessive as we are about quality, ethics and pretty packaging — and have pointed us in the direction of some amazing sustainable beauty brands. Discover a few of our fave clean, effective and eco-conscious products…
