Posted by: | Comments
As many of you know, Sephora is the premier cosmetic retailer of virtually every brand available from Lorac to Urban Decay. Like many other retailers they have seen that all things green are in demand and make-up is no exception. In response, they are now featuring a variety of eco-friendly cosmetics.
With regards to eco-friendly cosmetics, Sephora acknowledged that “when it comes to natural products, [the consumer] deserves it all: naturally derived formulas that deliver gorgeous results, too. Because the term “natural” is not regulated by the FDA, [they] created [their] own internal standards for the natural products [they] carry at Sephora—and a green logo to identify those that pass the test”. They go on to explain that their eco-friendly cosmetics “have to have high concentrations of: antioxidants, botanicals, essential oils, fruit extracts, marine bioactives, minerals and vitamins”.
