My Tried and True Sustainable Beauty Picks
16
items I’ve tried/tested out all of these products myself so you don’t have to! Here’s some of my favorite sustainable skincare, hair care, and makeup products with cleaner ingredients as STEM nerd and sensitive skin girlie :)
I love this face cream but I only use it occasionally as it’s a bit of a splurge - the formula is environmental working group certified and eczema friendly though so it’s super clean
Squalane + Omega Repair Deep Hydration Moisturizer - Biossance
I’ve repurchased this every couple months for the last year because this is the best tubing mascara
Come Hell or High Water Volumizing Tubing Mascara - caliray
A super hydrating and lightweight serum if you’re looking to splurge a little :) Peptides can actually stimulate the skins collagen production and help with elasticity and I do see a slight difference in my skin when I’m using this consistently
Squalane + Copper Peptide Rapid Plumping Serum - Biossance
Light coverage, very hydrating and noncomedogenic formula that works great for my sensitive skin and doesn’t cause me to have eczema flares
ILIA Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40 Skincare Foundation
Hydrating and tinted mineral sunscreen that works great for my sensitive skin. Works best for light or medium coverage depending on how much product you use
SunnyDays SPF 30 Tinted Sunscreen | Back In Stock At Tower 28 Beauty
Super hydrating serum and a reasonable price for a quality product. I always have this hyaluronic acid or the good molecules one in my routine
The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 Hydrating Serum with Ceramides
Thick, glossy, and hydrating! I use the mint formula at home and the acai formula when I go out
Topicals Slick Salve Glossy Lip Balm for Soothing + Hydration
Great formula for a reasonable price - I love the clear and lychee colors but I have not tried the other yet!
Naturium - Lip Balms & Treatments - 2 Products
This is my newest favorite lip treatment and it outperforms many expensive lip products I’ve tried and its a much better price :)
Provence Beauty : Lip Balms & Treatments
Makes my skin happy and environmental working group certified! Truly saves me during eczema flares in the winter especially
The Honest Company Soothe Fragrance Free Eczema Relief Cream
Environmental working group certified, hydrating/thick formula, and not too strong of a scent
More Moisture Body Butter
Good for a light chemical exfoliation but I only use occasionally as I have very sensitive, dry skin
Squalane + BHA Pore-Minimizing Toner - Biossance
lasts hours and has good pigment but is also a skincare and makeup product all in one so that’s a bonus
Ciele Blush & Protect SPF 50+ Liquid Blush
Works great for my straight and flat hair! I do not color my hair but I believe it is color safe :)
JVN Embody Daily Volumizing Shampoo
I apply this right after washing my hair and it works as a great heat protectant especially if I want to air dry my hair post shower and style it with heat at a later time
JVN Complete Instant Recovery Heat Protectant Leave-In Serum
Pairs well with the shampoo and works great for my straight and flat hair! I do not color my hair but I believe it is color safe :)
JVN Embody Daily Volumizing Conditioner
