Spring Awakening: Upgrade Your Skincare Routine with the Best Sustainable Beauty Products
We're starting to see the early signs of spring here in NorCal and it feels so good. I love the renewing feeling that comes with the changing of the seasons. It really feels like a reboot to me and a chance to start fresh. When seasons change I like to take it as an opportunity to mix up my routines too. Like changing up my morning routine, types of exercise, foods I'm eating, and my skincare routine too.
It's no secret around here that I love skincare. In addition to starting my own brand, I also still really love trying new products and mix and match them into my own skincare routine. For me to truly love a skincare product it has to check two boxes. First, does it work? Second, Is it sustainable? As with everything I share, I always vet beauty brands before buying to make sure it's sourced & manufactured responsibly, in recycled or plastic free packaging, & uses non-toxic ingredients. So without further ado, here's the best sustainable skincare beauty products I've been loving lately if you're looking to upgrade your skincare routine this spring.

Juice Beauty Stem Cellular Moisturizer
Since turning 30 I've been experimenting with adding more anti-aging skincare to my routine. While my skin looks great now I definitely want to keep it that way and prevent as much as I can. So I turned to Juice Beauty's Stem Cellular line because I just always love what they create and I know how seriously they take efficacy and sustainability when creating their products. This line in particular uses their unique antioxidant + resveratrol rich Sagrantino grape that they grow on their farm here in NorCal. I have been SO impressed with this moisturizer and after just 2 weeks I already see an improvement in the pesky little forehead lines that I get.
Juice Beauty Stem Cellular Peel Spray
Another favorite from Juice Beauty is their stem cellular peel spray. Peels are essential because they remove that top layer of dead skin cells so that your fresh new glowy skin cells have room to shine. The end result is fresher, brighter, skin and smaller pores. Juice has some great peels but I really like this one because it comes in spray form and is housed in a recycled content bottle. I like to spray it on before I get in the shower and then gently exfoliate with a baby washcloth to remove the dead skin. It's such an easy step, gentle, and perfect for all skin types.
Fre Skincare Tinted Moisturizer
Okay, you’ve probably heard this one before. UV exposure is the number-one cause of skin aging, after all. I love a good multi-tasker and I don't wear a lot of makeup so tinted moisturizers are a mainstay in my routine. Like any spf product it's important to choose one made with mineral spf (more on why here). Lately I've been loving this tinted moisturizer from Fre Skincare because it looks great, is made with a mineral based SPF, and housed in some gorgeous glass packaging.
Bonjout Beauty Balm
I was really impressed with this brand new launch from Bonjout Beauty because it's so innovative, unique, and sustainable. It's an 8 in 1 skincare product housed in a cute refillable compact you can fit into any bag so you're never without good skincare. I love to use it as a touch up throughout the day, as a hand and cuticle cream, and a lip treatment. The ingredients are also top notch.
