crystal body polish

Crystals are promoted as healing elements, so why not include them in beauty products? House of Intuition’s latest launch promotes the idea that your daily ritual is really all about self-care and self-love. Its Crystal Body Polish ($28) does much more than just exfoliate. Activated with vibrating crystal energy and essential oils, each of the five types offers different attributes (amethyst provides spiritual and emotional protection, citrine offers an energetic and creative boost, etc.). It’s a brand beloved by numerous celebrities, including Lena Dunham and Anne Hathaway … namaste!

answer to aging
formula 28 perfector

A new, natural, anti-aging skin care line, Ultra Violet, is touting its products as ones to combat aging at the cellular level with bio-effective ingredients. Founder Marci Malbrough is an NCEA-certified master esthetician who has custom-designed the line for a drug-free alternative to younger, healthier looking skin. The Formula 28 Perfector ($115) is made without parabens, sulfates or phthalates and with hyaluronic acid, silver ear mushroom and trehalose. If some of those don’t sound familiar, just know that the serum diminishes visible imperfections, normalizes skin tone, helps clear breakouts, hydrates and controls the skin’s reaction to stress.

super natural
cake mascara

Natural products are becoming the norm these days, but Bésame Cosmetics is taking it even further with its reproduction of makeup from decades past. During WWII, rationing materials and using items for multiple purposes were part of the culture, and Bésame wants to adopt that philosophy again by creating long-lasting, zero-waste, multipurpose products. The Cake Mascara ($25) lasts up to two years and doubles as eyeliner and brow fill. Packaged in a reusable tin, refills come wrapped in compostable packaging.
