Green Beauty Product Roundup: Lipsticks
March 18, 2008 7:05 am Body Care, Environment, StuffNew Improved Packaging! Eco-Friendly Beauty Products
Every day, more eco-friendly beauty products are developed. With the market flooded with organic, paraben-free, hypoallergenic and recycled packaging, it’s time to investigate some of the best of each category. These lip products go above and beyond to ensure eco-friendly and beauty are synonymous.
Cargo Plant Love Lipstick: Five-Star Eco-Friendly
Botanical lipsticks in sheer colors made from orchids, meadowfoam seed oil, jojoba and shea butter provide long-lasting moisture without petroleum or mineral oils. Choose from celebrity colors (Evangeline Lilly is a bright coral) or from one of the other shades.
What makes Plant Love so unique is that every aspect of the product is recyclable. The tube is constructed of corn-based plastic you can compost, which is far more environmentally friendly than petroleum based plastic used to create other lipsticks. Additionally, the charming box is embedded with flower seeds so you can plant the box and see your beautiful lip color come to life in a clay pot. Plant the box, stop adding to landfill waste and brighten up your kitchen. How lovely is that?
Origins Smileage Plus Liptint
This certified organic balm helps prevent chapped lips due to an organic beeswax base and ingredients such as sunflower oil, coconut, aloe extract, jojoba oil and cocoa butter. The sheer tint works on literally any skin tone, while the citrus scent is a great match with summer weather.
Burt’s Bees Lip Shimmers
From the originals in beeswax products, these lip shimmers are not overtly glittery, but leave a light shine. It’s 100 percent natural, with moisturizing ingredients like vitamin E, coconut and sunflower oils.
Smashbox Green Room Hybrid 2 in 1 Color and Shine Lip Gloss
This glossiest of gloss has moringa seed extract for healthier lips and an innovative design with clear gloss and color in the same tube. Recycle the tube for added eco-benefits.
As part of their desire to go green, Smashbox has created an entire Green Room line. With every purchase, a Moringa tree will be planted in a developing country by Trees For The Future. Moringa trees are a self-renewing source of food, plus we can never have too many plants.

Hello,
My name is Catherine Ibarra and I am the event coordinator for the SDGCE Symposium. I have enjoyed learning about your eco-friendly products. We would like to invite you to sell or exhibit at the SDCGE Symposium.
Our focus for the Symposium is creating an event for facilitating community inner-connection by increasing community consciousness and individual awareness through a sharing of our individual goals, skills, dreams, strategies and ideas.
Our plan for the SDGCE Symposium is to bring together 50,000 people from the surrounding community and get them motivated so that everyone gets involved in attending and participating in the San Diego Community Empowerment expo event. We are hoping to bring humanitarian, educational, artistic, political, environmental, spiritual, and wellness oriented individuals, businesses and organizations together to help us manifest this dream.
We would like to make this event a model for community consciousness events many other major cities on the planet. This manifestation can create healing for the community and for the planet.
We are terribly proud to have a wonderful range of guest speakers, presenters and NPO participants for the SDCGE Symposium.
If you would like to speak please send us a brief summary of your presentation and any other info you would like to include so that we can promote you, and advertize the times and dates you will be able to speak. Please include the names of any related websites we have permission to include or other relevant information and you would like to have featured in our SDGCE Symposium promotions.
Our permit costs, insurance and expo rent for the venue together with our planned advertising to the public will cost well over $10,000 and this is why the Symposium is still actively soliciting an eclectic range of commercial businesses and/or organizations to participate as vendors and commercial exhibitors.
For this reason we are hoping to find humanitarian, educational, artistic, political, environmental, spiritual, and wellness oriented individuals, businesses and organizations who might benefit from participation and purchase a both spot for the low rate of $120.00 a day or $300.00 for all three days.
We are looking for organizations, businesses and groups who reflect the deeper values of our collective humanity and would like to interact in a venue where they can share their information with the public and everyone can learn to work together to create and evolve strategies to heal our communities and our planet.
