Red Lips for Green


Today more and more cosmetic companies are introducing new and innovative products that cater to a green frame of mind. The high-end cosmetic company, Cargo has joined in on this trend when it recently launched a lipstick line called PlantLove lipstick. Cargo has made everything about this product as environmentally friendly as possible, from the ingredients to the packaging. In addition to being 100% natural, this lipstick also features:
  • A lipstick tube made entirely out of corn fibers
  • An official stamp of approval from EcoCert
  • A $2 donation to St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital with every purchase of a celeb-designed shade.
  • Biodegradable packaging with seeds embedded inside so that if you bury the box in dirt, water it, and show it some love, flowers will bloom.
This line also boasts eleven shades designed by celebrities such as Angie Harmon, Mariska Hargitay and Lindsay Lohan.

Even though one tube costs $20 a pop, I believe that this is a worthy investment because it's a great product for a great cause--making this world a more beautiful place.
