Paraben-Free

From A Beautiful Life, makers of the incredible natural nail polish remover that really works and I Heart Unicorns Perfume, comes these cute as can be Honey'do Shampoo and Conditioner ($16 each or $30 for the set).

While they look like something you'd keep in your kitchen, much like FarmHouse Fresh Goods' Sweet Cream Body Milk ($26), these goodies are best left in the shower — and not drizzled atop your Elvis-style peanut butter and banana sandwich. Made with organic honey to promote bounce and shine in the hair, these orange-blossom-scented products are also sulfate- and paraben-free. Will you get your buzz on?

Until very recently, I'd never heard of Sante, an organic makeup and skin care brand from Germany that's just launched in the US. The brand is BDIH certified, which means that it uses natural materials and considers the biological impact of its products, and it's also got a nice, low price point. I especially like the Eyeliner Pencil in Metallic Blue ($10). I use it to waterline my upper and lower rims when my eyes are bloodshot from staring at the computer screen, and it's just the right shade to brighten without being conspicuous the way white liner is. Their Lip Duo Contour & Gloss ($12) is also a winner—it's a matte neutral red liner with a matching metallic gloss. The only product I dislike is the Soft Cream Foundation ($17). The texture is lovely, but the pump dispenses too much product, and it's highly fragranced, which the Bella team, after much sniffing, unanimously disliked.

In the quest for a natural-leaning hair care line, I've been blowing through about a dozen brands. More on those soon, but for now, let's look at Evolvh. If you can get past the oddball spelling, you'll find a vegan and mostly organic collection of shampoo, conditioner, and styling products. They're free of sulfates and parabens, but they're filled with extracts of plants such as mallow, flax, pansy, and marigold.

That's all fine and dandy, but how well do they work? Actually, pretty well. The shampoo and conditioner have a light, pleasant scent and leave hair shiny and moisturized. But the star of the line is Ultimate styling lotion ($28), which claims to provide volume, hold, and shine. It's super-lightweight, keeps frizz at bay, and gives hair a glossy but not greasy look. Win!

If you love coffee, or even just the scent of it, let me introduce you to the Barista Bath and Body (B3) line of products. Launched just a few months ago by three businesswomen (a mother, daughter, and niece), unlike many other "coffee-scented" hair and body lines, the B3 products actually do contain the real deal. Free of parabens, sulfates, and phthalates, it features organic, fair trade coffee, coffee seed oil, coffee extract, or ground coffee within the brand's eight core offerings. Why coffee, you ask? Not only is it a stimulating ingredient, but its acidic pH balance is also similar to our own hair and skin.

Are you in a membership club? Now while picking up 20-pound boxes of Fritos, you can swing by for all-natural skin care, too. This month, each of the 150 Sam's Club warehouse stores will debut Sophyto, a vegan skin care line.

Free from fillers, parabens, binders, dimethicone, and essential oils, Sophyto products were originally only available in medical spas or through dermatologists. At $30 for the three-product Daily Renewal Kit and $35 for its Antiaging Care Kit, the organic line is reasonably priced.

A green-leaning beauty line in Sam's Club is a pretty big deal, considering the chain's colossal size. "For a long time we have been interested in expanding health and beauty," Sam's Club's Sonya Gafsi told WWD. "It is an opportunity area that is underdeveloped in the club channel, but it was important to incorporate a holistic vision of wellness, one we want to develop across the club." We're excited to see organic skin care become more mainstream. Because where one mega-retailer goes — especially one owned by Walmart — more are likely to follow.

Here's a look at natural deodorants from OnSugar blog The BrownFace B.E.E.:

Once you go natural (with your hair), I think something is stirred inside you to go natural with everything else. Well, at least for me. One of the first things (after my hair) that I went natural with was my deodorant. My husband has not used any antiperspirant or deodorants in like 15 years, and believe it or not, he does not smell (um, there are those days, but it is so not as bad as you would think). His was not a natural choice, but he realized that the antiperspirants were messing up the underarms of his light-colored shirts.

After discovering more than two gray hairs near my temples, lately, I've been paying a bit more attention to antiaging skin care. Arbonne's RE9 Advanced line, which consists of 11 products, is paraben-free and supposedly, you'll see results in 24 hours. I tried a few products out from the packaged-in-orange line, so to find out more about which item I liked most, just keep reading.
