Radiant Skin, Responsible Skincare
“When it comes to skincare, you shouldn’t have to sacrifice results for responsibility.” That’s Amala’s credo, as ecofabulous quickly learned after sitting down with Amala founder, Ute Leube, at the Barneys launch party in New York.
Taking a cue from nature, Amala (which is Sanskrit for “most pure”) utilizes the potency of plants, rather than synthetic chemicals, to treat skin of all types. With extracts including blue lotus, cocoa beans, and jasmine, Amala partners with fair trade, organic farmers across the globe in an effort to help cultivate plants in a responsible, sustainable way.
Face care is broken down into four categories: hydrate, rejuvenate, purify and soothe so it’s easy to identify the product line that best fits your needs. Our product pick of the bunch? The purifying clay mask for its ability to dissolve all excess oil while still leaving skin feeling nourished ($58). For a tiny treat, keep a pocket-sized aroma concentrate on hand - available in lavender, peppermint or rose ($20).
Ethically grown, powerfully pure, luscious skincare that’s as good for you as it is for the workers and mother E.
