Snowberry Plantation Harakeke plants 0213

For those who may still think that natural and organic skin care is not as effective as its toxic chemical-laden cousins, you are sadly behind the times. There has never been a wider range of highly effective and sophisticated products available to help defy the signs of aging.

In fact, the most significant advances in the beauty industry most recently are in green chemistry. For plump, healthy, beautiful skin, here are a few muscular new products that really know how to pack a punch!

 

BRIGHTEN

Bright Skin Starter Kit HR

Snowberry Bright Defence This New Zealand import features peptides, antioxidants and extract of New Zealand flax–rich in phytosterols and omega acids–which New Zealanders call harakeke. The indigenous Maori people have many medicinal uses for harakeke, including wound healing. It fights inflammation, dehydration and discoloration.  snowberrybeauty.com

Eminence Bright Skin Starter Set Hyperpigmentation and dark spots due to sun damage can be tough to fade. But with a bit of persistence, along with active ingredients like licorice root extract (a natural alternative to hydroquinone), a bright and even-toned complexion can be yours. eminenceorganics.com

 

TIGHTEN

La Bella Figura Complexion Radiance Perfector Vitamin C is notoriously hard to stabilize, but the C in this new product is derived from Australian kakadu plum stem cell extracts, which contain vitamin E, a natural vitamin C stabilizer. It also features barberry fig seed oil, evening primrose, coconut water and aloe vera juice to brighten, tighten  and soften even the most sensitive skin.

Mad Hippie Vitamin C Serum A viscous serum that absorbs neatly into the skin, this small Austin-based line features targeted products that are clean and highly effective. (Try the Exfoliating Serum with alpha-hydroxy acids, apple stem cells, peptides, too–your skin will thank you!) madhippie.com
