    VEGAN is the NEW Rizz in Seattle

    Today, we’re diving into the world of clean beauty, and guess what? It’s getting even kinder!

  • Clean Beauty Favorites on New Day Northwest

    Clean Beauty Favorites on New Day Northwest

    A shift towards cleaner and greener products is taking center stage in the evolving beauty world. From the meticulous crafting of formulations to the sustainable innovation in packaging, every aspect is now under scrutiny and conscious consideration. Today, we’re back in Seattle on New Day Northwest to share the latest finds and show what makes them stand out as exceptional gems in the clean beauty mega sphere.

    Garnier has stood out for over a decade as a maverick in cleaning up all aspects of their products. These shampoo bars are brilliant. They create shine and are easy to use and rinse. Plus, they are clean and green from formulation to packaging and are even 97% Biodegradable. 

    Garnier Whole Blends Shampoo Bars   
    PRICE: $8.99
    SHOP: @garnierusa.com
    The nourishing formulas cleanse and lather like a liquid shampoo. They soften, repair, and revitalize hair, resulting in shinier and healthy-looking strands. Formulated with 94% plant-based ingredients, the shampoo bars are blended without silicones, preservatives, soap, or dyes. The fast-rinsing formulas are 97% biodegradable and dermatologist-tested for safety.

    Garnier is Approved by Cruelty-Free International – Garnier is committed to creating a world where no animals suffer in a laboratory.

    Another brand you’ll want to take to the shower is EC30. 

    EC30 Clean Body Wash
    PRICE: $19.00
    SHOP: @EC30Clean.com
    Want to know what it’s like to wash your body with a lighter carbon footprint? Our body wash strikes a perfect balance we all want: efficiently cleans your skin of sweat and dirt yet leaves your skin moisturized and soft.

    *Fluffy bubbles lather at your fingertips.
    *Leaves skin supple and moisturized

    If you haven’t heard of this next product, I’ll catch you up. Editors tout this cream by Comfort Zone as being better than LeMer and as clean as a product can be.

    Comfort Zone HYDRAMEMORY RICH SORBET CREAM
    PRICE: $71
    SHOP: @amazon
    Vegan formula that is enriched with SKIN-ADAPTIVE HYDRATION technology: Prickly Pear Extract from regenerative organic agriculture and Macro Hyaluronic Acid,, combined with biomimetic sorbet texture, gives comfort and intense hydration to the skin, which is immediately softer, smoother and more radiant. Its refillable packaging is a sustainable solution to reduce the use of materials and CO2 emissions. Contains 98,4% natural-origin ingredients

    Recently, in my editor community, there’s been a lot of pushback on which lash serums actually work and which are meh. As someone who religiously applies one at night, I was surprised to find out that many of the products on the market are merely an oil derivative, and some of the ingredients are not even suitable for the eyes. I can attest, and many a TikToker that Nulastin works and the formula is clean. I haven’t tried the brow serum out yet, but it’s also a fan favorite. 

    NULASTIN® LASH and BROW Dual System with Elastaplex®
    PRICE: $139
    SHOP: @nulastin.com 
    Notice up to 60% longer-looking lashes & 120% fuller-looking brows.

Made with skin-safe, ethically sourced, naturally derived ingredients and backed by five issued U.S. patents, our groundbreaking formulas have been proven to support the body’s natural ability to stimulate the replenishment of elastin. In a 12-week clinical evaluation, participants experienced up to 60% longer-looking eyelashes and up to 120% fuller-looking eyebrows.

    I was sent Naked Sundays to review while I was in Florida. So, let’s say I really got to test out the SPF aspects of the brand, but I also loved the makeup. Because the product is so clean, I didn’t hesitate to use the blush sticks on my young nieces. I think we will be seeing a lot more from this brand.  

    Naked Sundays SPF50 Sheer Glow Balm Sticks Trio
    PRICE: $55
    SHOP: @NakedSundays.com
    Makeup meets SPF with these multi-tasking mineral SPF sheer makeup sticks Trio includes three shades: Rosé, Champagne, and Espresso Martini – a rosy pink, a shimmering highlighter, and a subtle bronze that can be used as blush, highlighter, eye shadow base, lip color, and contour  To use, apply your usual SPF onto your clean face.
