Simple Ways to Be Eco Fabulous

If you’re like me, you’re always looking for ways to reduce your footprint on the environment. But it’s not always easy… especially when it comes to keeping you looking great.

That’s why this year – to celebrate Earth Day – I put together some “green” Aging Backwards tips so you can be eco-fabulous and still look your best.

1. Power down. Did you know that even when your blow dryer and flat iron are in “off” positions they still use up power? To help conserve energy, make sure you take the extra step to unplug when you’re finished beautifying. Or better yet, once or twice a week, try going without electricity all together when you get ready in the morning. Letting your hair air-dry not only helps the environment, it also reduces the amount of damage done to your mane.

2. Turn off the waterworks. Did you know that most normal showers can use a gallon of water every 20 seconds? If that sounds like a lot, it is. But the good news is that just by cutting a minute or two off your daily shower you can conserve up to 150 gallons of water a month! You can also save water by turning off the faucet while you brush your teeth and wash your face… even when you shave your legs! The steam from your shower will help keep your legs nice and moist while you get the job done – without water.

3. Purify your products. Keep your skin and hair looking their best with chemical-free, natural cosmetics. Not only can the chemicals in synthetic products cause damage to your body, they can take a toll on the environment when they wash off your body and down the drain. Try to steer clear of products that contain artificial fragrances and colors, parabens and preservatives. Instead, look for products with labels that advertise organic, vegan, soy-free, chemical-free ingredients.

Remember, small changes can make a huge difference in the environment this Earth Day, and every day.

Have a Youthful Day,
