As summer comes to an end, it's the perfect time to refresh our beauty bag and prepare our skin and hair for the change of season. Summer holidays often come with a lot of skincare products that we end up forgetting to use. Sun exposure, seawater and chlorine can dehydrate our skin and hair, making them need extra care at the end of summer. Below are suggestions for eco-friendly cosmetics and skincare tips.
Refresh your beauty bag with Eco-Cosmetics such as:
1. Moisturising Cream:
- Choose a moisturizer with natural ingredients that will help restore moisture to the skin, such as the Re4Earth by Kear "Rise & Shine Moisturizing Face Balm".
2. Regenerating Serum:
- Use a serum with antioxidants that protect and regenerate the skin from sun damage.
3. Hair products:
- Choose shampoos and conditioners free of sulfates and parabens that will nourish your hair without harmful chemicals.
4. Moisturizing your lips:
- Moisturize your lips, as the summer salt and sun exposure dehydrate them, choose products like Re4Earth by Kear "Kissing Me Softly Lip Balm" to make them soft and kissable again!
To understand whether a product is eco-friendly, you can follow several criteria and look at specific information. Here are some ways that can help you to assess a product as eco-friendly:
Certifications: Look for certifications from recognized organizations such as EU Ecolabel, FSC (Forest Stewardship Council), USDA Organic, Energy Star, etc.
Products with eco-labels may indicate that they have been tested and meet specific ecological standards.
Natural and Organic Ingredients: Choose products that contain natural or organic ingredients instead of chemical compounds.
Waste Reduction: check if the production process reduces waste and carbon emissions.
