Biodegradable beauty

Next time you need (or want) a new lipstick, do something good for the Earth and buy one of Cargo’s PlantLove Botanical lipsticks. 

The lipstick tube itself is made of corn, not plastic.  The corn polymer resembles plastic yet biodegrades in less than 50 days vs. a traditional lipstick tube which takes millions of years. What’s more, the outer paper packaging is embedded with flower seeds, so just plant it and wait for wildflowers to sprout.

The collection includes 20 sheer and glossy lipsticks. Many of the shades were designed by celebrities who want to give back to the Earth. Check out Faith and Grace, inspired by actress Angie Harmon’s children. Faith is a muted mauve cream and Grace is a sheer iced strawberry.

The cost: $20. Check out PlantLove at Sephora.
