Top Eco Chic Product Picks

When you think eco fashion and lifestyle, do you think crunchy granola rather than stylish fashion diva? That’s so last Woodstock. Today, it’s easy to be eco and chic.

	AHAVA Mineral Botanic We love lotions and potions, and when we find a line that pampers our skin and smells great, we’re sold. AHAVA’s Mineral Botanic body cream washes use natural moisturizers, antioxidants, and organic plant extracts and come in two different fragrances for each skin type. A favorite—the Orange and Frangipani cream—contains Vitamin C to strengthen collagen, while the frangipani extract soothes and tones. Price: $21.50 Purchase AHAVA Mineral Botanic
	DayNa Decker Botanika Chandels We’re hooked on the look and scent of DayNa Decker’s new Botanika Chandels. A blend of wax and oil, their EcoWood technology provides a clean burn. The Bardou version’s pink peppercorns, fresh greens, wild rose, pink peony, cardamom and redwood notes provide the light, natural fragrance.

	Beau Soleil Thought eco-conscious fashion was a contradiction in terms? Beau Soleil changed our minds. The collection is made from organic cotton and vegetable dye, and we can’t wait to wear the Toga dress in their signature bamboo fabric with surplus leather over the shoulder. Price: $275 Purchase Beau Soleil
	Love Peace & The Planet After trying the Love Peace & The Planet products, our hair was so soft and smelled so good we kept telling people to touch it!

	Intemperantia Vegan Chocolates We were intrigued with the idea of vegan chocolate—100% dairy free and all natural.
