Check out the wide array of cleansers, moisturizers, serums, and masks to get started on your journey towards everlasting youth. Looking a bit dry, dehydrated, or devitalized? For a radiant and clear complexion, try the Ultra Lite Vitamin C Complex for a megadose of Vitamin C in a lightweight, fluid liposome format that penetrates the deepest layers of the skin.

Rest assured that all Naturopathica treatments are free of synthetic solvents, thickeners, and emulsifiers, and contain no petroleum-based ingredients, artificial dyes, or fragrances. Dedicated to social and environmental responsibility, the company gives back to the earth and to the community through its practice of energy conservation, sustainable sourcing, and charitable donations.

The mother-daughter duo (one part chemistry teacher, one part physics professor) has created a 4-step skincare regimen that gently cleanses, hydrates and replenishes skin with gentle formulas that utilize nature’s intelligent ingredients rather than harsh synthetic chemicals.

Our favorite product pick of the bunch? The tinted moisturizing face screen for flawless coverage that isn’t heavy or oily, blending out unevenness and protecting from UVA/UVB rays. Listed as one of the top ten moisturizers with SPF recommended by the Environmental Working Group’s Safe Cosmetic Database, this all-glow-no-grease wonder gets our praise for performance and adherence to the strictest health and safety standards.

A decade after the company first launched out of the founder’s kitchen, Gourmet Body Treats’ ethically made 100% natural and 100% vegan products are still made by hand. Aside from being able to pronounce (and recognize!) the ingredients on the back of each jar (the Chocolate Facial Mask contains only five ingredients: organic cocoa powder, organic cane sugar, organic oat powder, chamomile extract, and green tea seed extract), you can rest assured knowing that Gourmet Body Treat’s has signed on the dotted line with the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics, pledging that all products will be free of chemicals that are known or strongly suspected to cause cancer, mutation, or birth defects.

If you’re less into sweets for the face, try the Kukui Mint Facial Cleanser for a refreshing wash that purifies without leaving skin feeling stripped – plus the organic peppermint oil provides a nice wake-up call for sleepy senses.

Saturday’s panels addressed topics from eco lifestyle, science, and greening schools to politics, food, and global perspectives. The Global Perspectives on Sustainability panel stood out especially. Moderated by Spokeswoman and Founding Member Erin Schrode and Senior Campaign Co-President Kate Smith, the panel featured our very own, Zem Joaquin, who spoke of her involvement in many incredible projects (from ecofabulous to hosting TED’s ecovillage to working alongside Bill McDonough to her recent collaboration with The eBay Green Team and more!).

Marci Zaroff, founder of Under the Canopy and upcoming FASE (Fashion Art Soul Earth), got the room jazzed about the soon-to-be-released label of amazing fashion-forward designs. Olowo-n’djo Tchala spoke of his deep commitment to social and environmental justice through his remarkable company Alaffia, truly changing the lives of people in villages of rural Togo – an incredibly inspiring mission. And Kimberly Pinkson talked about EcoMom Alliance’s ever-growing audience and enthusiastic response, as well as the importance of understanding global webs of life.

Overall, a phenomenal exchange of wisdom that left attendees charged up and even more committed to the eco-movement. For more info on Teens Turning Green or to learn how you can get involved, check out the website here.

Erbaviva’s pregnancy line has all bases covered: Feeling nauseous in the mornings? How about a little Quease-Ease Lip Balm with peppermint and ginger. What about mothers that want their children to “leave their mark on the world, not on their skin?” There’s the winning combo of Stretch Mark Cream and Stretch Mark Oil. For tummy dryness, use the skin-soothing Mommy-to-be Milk Bath. And nothing relieves swollen feet and helps stimulate circulation like the Refreshing Foot Balm (most affective when coupled with a 30 minute foot massage).

After pampering and supporting both the physical and emotional well-being of expectant mothers, Erbaviva’s got you covered for the next phase with an entire line of products designed specifically for the new little love in your life.

Partners John Amato and Teri LaVerne’s combined experience in the upscale environs of Beverly Hills, traveling the world to witness the traditional luxuries of other cultures and being entrenched in the fashion industry led them both to the understanding that fashion and hair are two sides of the same coin. “Fashion is about expression, versatility and rediscovering yourself, while well-maintained hair expresses timeless, effortless style.”

Suffice it to say, we were more than happy to turn our tired locks over to these pros for a much needed revamp. We tested the daily regime of Pure Shampoo and Essential Conditioner (free of sulfates, parabens, silicones and other toxic no-no’s) for two weeks. The results? A luxurious at-home pampering experience that left tresses completely (and naturally!) nourished. This sophisticated combo has officially earned a permanent place on our shower shelves!

After a successful run with Aveda, his new venture is entirely based on Nutritional Chemistry, using only food-derived ingredients (they are in fact 100% food-based and organic certified) that the body recognizes and understands as nutrients. From the Anti-Aging Serum that works to feed, restore and protect skin to an entirely organic hair care line to the array of multi-functional aromatics (we’re big fans of a mid-afternoon spritz of “Focus”), the Intelligent Nutrients collection has every base covered – even supplements and functional food… like an antioxidant rich innercalm in-fused chocolate bar!

After devoting his life to the study of plant-based medicine, winning countless awards and honors, it’s no surprise that such a stellar combination of healthful ingredients and effective results would come from Rechelbacher’s hands – there’s even an INcyclopedia on the site with descriptions, recipes, and in-depth info for everything used in the line (the goal, after all, is to educate and change the industry as a whole).

Beauty and brains? Check! Now on the hunt for brawn…

The conference will feature teen-moderated panel discussions, in-depth dialogues, interactive workshops, and a lifestyle expo focusing on environmental and public health policy, chemical exposure, the food industry, advocacy campaigns, eco-fashion and design, and greening school campuses, among other related topics. Plus, ecofabulous’ very own Zem Joaquin is one of the esteemed panelists talking about Global Perspectives on Sustainability and An Eco Lifestyle!

We’ll be tweeting from the conference so feel free to send your questions to @zem or @ecofabulous and we’ll do our best to get them in front of the panelists.

Los Angeles is rife with glitzy hair salons, most of which tend toward a cold aesthetic and factory-like treatment of clients. Not so at Primrose, where a light-filled interior decorated with vintage vanities, painted with VOC-free paint, and stylists’ inscrutable attention to your – yes, your – needs make for a warm ambiance.

Primrose carries a slew of ecofabulous-approved lines, Hamadi Organics, John Masters Organics, and Priti nail polish among them. In the chemical-happy hair industry, Primrose is a vanguard of eco-friendly beauty, and we laud the salon for proving that going green can be done on any scale. From their reclaimed, gussied-up salon chairs to the non-toxic putty spackled on their walls, Howe and Tornay are examples for small business owners hoping to move toward a sustainable future. The duo is committed to honing their product selection and researching the best in even greener treatments as the industry evolves.

When it comes to sheer—or rather, shear—talent, we were blown away by Felicia’s ability to turn an unruly mane into a stylishly full-bodied, low maintenance cut. The salon also offers eco mani’s, which would be an amazing add-on to a day of beauty at Primrose. We’ll take seconds from this gem of a salon and its en vogue staff.

The Vapour Organic Beauty line of foundations, blushes, lipsticks and eye color was born out of an artisanal cosmetics lab in New Mexico as an answer to a New York City make-up artist’s search for the perfect makeup products – a line with unwavering performance and an even firmer commitment to using non-toxic ingredients. The products (save for the elixir lip gloss) have a unique texture, a smooth, airy blend that hovers somewhere between powder, cream, and liquid. The result is foundation that glides on without flaking and eye color that doesn’t get all over your face.

Office favorites include the Mesmerize Eye Color in Flash ($16), a luminous nude color for everyday wear, and the Illusionist Concealer ($20) for total under-eye & blemish coverage.
