Our Natural + Organic Beauty Awards: Part 2

by Organic Spa Magazine

We are widely considered leaders in clean beauty, and, when it comes to curating natural and organic beauty, we are well-known for our integrity—we vet every ingredient on every ingredient label for you.

Now, for the first time ever, we have decided to award top products with our new Organic Spa Media Beauty Awards. Our criteria was simple: We judged each product on ingredient purity, efficacy, innovation and sustainability. Here is part two of our 2020 award-winners!
