Go wild

Forget what Kermit said. It is easy being green: Just start with your face. We love the new Nature Girl line of chemical-free skin- and hair-care products because they’re made with organic ingredients grown on small, family-run farms all over the world. And we admit it—we’re also smitten with the funky, colorful packaging. The line features facial cleansers ($38–$48), masks ($46–$85), shampoos and conditioners ($35), moisturizers ($45), and more, including our personal favorite, the Green Queen Combava Extra Rich Botanical Body Lotion ($65). Made with Madagascan foraha nut oil and shea butter, the lotion hydrates and protects skin even against the harshest winds whipping across the beach this summer. Bonus: Nature Girl donates a portion of after-tax profits to projects that benefit the environment. Who knew taking care of the earth could begin with skin care?
