For a brand to be considered eco-friendly, it has to be cruelty free, natural, non-toxic and sustainably made. Many brands use “natural,” “green” and “organic” as buzzwords to market their products, but luckily there has been a rise of actual trustworthy, eco-friendly beauty brands on the market.

 

Osea is a great natural, non-toxic, cruelty free, vegan, American-made skincare line everyone should try. With 100 percent money back guarantee on its merchandise, Osea believes in its product and let the results speak for themselves. With everything from face-type specific cleansers to lotions, body scrubs and every other skin product available, Osea could replace a variety of products you may already own.

 

Yes to is another great skincare line that can be found in most supermarkets and convenience stores around the country. With cruelty-free products made with carrots, tomatoes, blueberries and so many other natural ingredients, the products use the natural vitamins and benefits of fruits and vegetables.

 

BH Cosmetics is another natural, cruelty-free makeup line great for large pallets and shadow sets. Another great line for makeup is 100% Pure, selling all-natural, cruelty-free makeup that highlights natural ingredients like spinach and blood orange all while donating to different foundation with a portion of the proceeds.

 

All of these brands and more offer great products that do not harm animals, the environment or the user. It is important to shop smart and consider what we are putting on our skin, hair and eyes and where the product comes from.

 

Most great products are Leaping Bunny Certified, meaning they do not test, use a second party to test or outsource their product to get around chemical use and standards in the United States.

 

Consider this list a guide when shopping for beauty products as most of them have better, safer and more affordable products than the mainstream, household brands.
