Going green is a great new trend with equally great benefits for our environment and future generations. But let’s face it, the traditional eco-friendly products and designs haven’t always been the most fashionable. So here comes the good news- you no longer have to wear a burlap sack or beaded hemp necklace to show that you’re an eco-friendly diva. Now you can go green in style, thanks to Smashbox’s new Spring ’08 Green Room Collection.
Going green has never been so easy or glamorous. This latest collection from Smashbox includes four amazing new products that will keep both the environment and your face positively beaming. It includes bronzers, eye shadow quads, lip glosses and a luminizing primer. Most of the products found in this line contain an extract found in the Moringa tree, which is also know as the Miracle Tree. Moringa seed extract is loaded with tons of Vitamins C and A, providing your skin with a nutritious dose of antioxidants that would make mother nature proud. In addition, Smashbox has teamed up with Trees for the Future, and for each Green Room product purchased a Moringa tree will be planted in a developing country. Not only does the Moringa provide nutritious benefits to your skin, but the tree itself lessens soil erosion and aids in cleaner air and water for future generations in these countries. This is one sure-fire way to feel good about looking fabulous.
Here’s a peek at the four fabulous new products from Smashbox:
Green Room Bronzer with Moringa Seed Extract
This bronzer will give you the perfect, natural looking glow, ideal for this time of year. It gives a warm, luminous glow without too much sparkle or shimmer, leaving your skin looking beautiful and glowing. It comes in two color options to ensure the right match – Golden Glow or Deep Bronze.
Hybrid 2 in 1 Color and Shin Lip Gloss
The new innovative approach to this lip color separates the color and gloss in the inner and outer parts of the tube, delivering the perfect combination of each upon application. The gloss comes in three colors – Pink Lily, Marigold and Azalea. All three colors go great with the Green Room’s overall color scheme, and will leave your pout perfectly polished.
Green Room Eye Shadow Quad with Moringa Seed Extract
This eye shadow quad is a super-convenient must-have. All of the colors in the set perfectly complement each other, eliminating the hassle of trying to coordinate the base, crease and highlighting shades. The compact is available in two color schemes – Bamboo and Blossom.
Hybrid 2 in 1 Luminizing Primer
This new primer is a great buy for any girl. The new formulation includes two of Smashbox’s best products – Artificial Light (on the outer layer of the tube) and Photo Finish Primer (on the inside layer.) Together these two products make for an amazing new formula that smoothes wrinkles, lines and pores while also providing a powerful dose vitamins to the skin. This primer can be worn alone or under foundation for a brilliantly radiant complexion.
In addition, every piece of the packaging used in the Green Room collection is completely biodegradable or recyclable, including the compacts themselves. This is one collection that will leave you feeling guilt-free, environmentally productive and most of all incredibly gorgeous. So get out there and save our environment, one beautiful face at a time.
