Going green means more than just cleaning up our environment around us. We can also help to green up our planet by purchasing cosmetics that use environmentally friendly practices.

As we try to get everyone to become more ‘green’ aware, eco-friendly reusable tote bags are becoming a popular cotton bag to take out. Cotton and tote bags are great to take to the grocery store but they can be a good (and plastic free) way to hold your cosmetic products. Many of the environmentally friendly bags come with a green earth message and the Tarte cosmetics “be good to your mother (earth) bag is a popular choice.

The Tarte cosmetics company wants to reward you for trying to keep the earth clean, and when you purchase this eco-friendly tote they will give you three lip sheers. These lip sheers also smear the environmental message, the reduce, reuse, recycle method implemented in materials and packaging.

The containers the lip sheers come in is post-consumer recycled aluminium and the lip sheers are made from natural beeswax, mango butter, peppermint oil, coconut oil and vitamin E. All of these things will help to keep your lips in a (natural) top condition.

The all natural lip sheers also have SPF15 sun protection so you can feel confident to step out on those sunny days. You can get other skin care products and cosmetics from Tarte from their website. But this is the environmentally friendly option.
