A Little Green For Your Beauty Routine

Posted on August 14th, 2009 by liapatrice in Eco-Friendly

Green WorldHello friends!  So as you all know by reading my About page, I am all for anything that helps save the environment.  Living in several big cities has certainly opened my eyes to the damaging effects pollution can have not only on our skin but on the earth as well.  I always try my hardest to contribute to the Green Movement and although some people see it as some sort of scam to get us to spend more money, I simply just have to disagree.  Being green doesn’t have to cost you more “green.”  In fact, it can actually save you a lot of money in the long run.  And I don’t see how helping out our own planet as individuals can be a bad thing.  Mother Earth is our HOME!  Now don’t get me wrong, I am certainly not a “tree hugger” or a hardcore environmentalist.  I am just acknowledging the changes that are taking place on our earth and I am simply just taking the opportunity to help correct the damage in any little way that I can.

Now this topic is something that is very personal to me and I don’t ever try to enforce my ideas on other people but rather just share them.  Take from my discussions what you would like and as long as you are leading a life that makes you and your loved ones happy I am all for it.  This is just something that makes me feel better as a human being.

Now with that being said, I’d like to talk about the wonderful direction that the beauty industry is headed.  More and more we are seeing organic, earth-friendly lines popping up at the counters.  There are so many product lines being introduced to us on a daily basis that it’s actually starting to become difficult to keep up with them.  Even your local drug store is carrying some of my favorite eco-beauty products.  Stay tuned to Big City Beauty as I will be discussing these things on what I am now claiming to be BCB Eco-Fridays!  I’d love to send you all off into your weekends with a positive vibe and provide you with simple tips that you can utilize while making your beauty choices.  I have found many great secrets and tips to help you not only look and feel beautiful, but to also keep our planet looking great as well.  From organic and recyclable products to home remedies that will also help lower your carbon emission, I’ll talk all about it here on BCB Eco-Fridays!

And remember that although I do promote eco-beauty purchases, I still use and love all the other stuff too.  I can’t help it!  I’m addicted to these things.  So stay connected throughout the week when I review the industry’s top products and discuss the skin concerns we all face as well.  Knowledge is beauty, people!   And that’s what I’m here to provide you with.

Until next time my friends…  xoxo
