Top 5 Clean Perfumes that You Need Now!

Image
Fragrance and perfume is a delight of life.   It has the ability to invoke and stir emotions, memories and create special moments.   Fragrances can convey a mood and they can be an expression of identity and inner confidence.   Two years ago, Green News Guide introduced our Clean, Organic and Natural Perfume guide which contains a list of brands that make or manufacture perfumes that are free from carcinogenic substances such as phthalates and parabens.   If you are clearing out your beauty stash and venturing out to clean beauty, here are a few clean scent faves. Phlur Heavy Cream Hair & Body Fine Fragrance Mist $26 3oz Phlur’s Heavy Cream is a mega popular scent for a good reason.   This scent is heavy on the vanilla with subtle notes of cream, coconut and caramel.   It’s an amazing scent for layering with stronger fragrances that mesh well with a gourmand profile.   Wear Heavy Cream on its own and be enveloped within a cloud of decadent sweet ...

Coach (Re) Loved Campaign

To increase efforts to improve sustainability Coach initiated a campaign which enables customers to recycle their old bags. Coach is an all American luxury design house which was established in New York and they've been creating much loved leather goods for decades.  Customers are given credit towards a new bag when they turn in their old bags. The design house then reimagines or restores the bag to like new condition.  Coach has four different methods for giving their old bags a new life:


1. Coach Upcrafted:  When Coach customers trade their old bag, coach re-designs the bag and may add elements to it in order to make it look like a completely different bag.


2. Coach Restored: Coach will restore older bags to their original condition


3. Coach Vintage:  Coach will restore vintage bags to their original condition


4. Coach Remade: Coach uses the materials from pre-loved handbags to construct and create a new handbag or leather good.





If you visit the Coach upcrafted section of the website you'll see handbags that look absolutely amazing. Many of them are sold out too! The design house has made use of elements such as flowers, hearts, fringes and even paint (yes, paint) to redesign the bags. 

Coach recognizes that design houses have engaged in wasteful and unsustainable practices over the decades.  It's very ethical of Coach to want to put a stop to the wasteful ways of the business of fashion through their (Re)Loved campaign.  Through the campaign, they are engaging with and helping their millions of customers think about how they can do better to the planet and create a much more sustainable earth.  

Do you have old Coach bags that you no longer use? Why not indulge in the practice of recycling and trade it in for credit? Let someone else love that handbag that's been collecting dust in your closet! I absolutely love what Coach is doing.  They are always surprising their customer base with the new and different.

So Wear it. Love it. Pass it On.

The FDA has moved to finally ban Red Dye No. 3 from use in food and drugs in America.  Red Dye No. 3 was first determined to be a cancer causing color additive almost 30 years ago.  Studies conducted using labs rats found that they became inflicted with the disease after consuming large amounts of Red dye No. 3.  Thirty years ago, the FDA officially banned Red Dye No. 3 from use in cosmetics but left the door open for it to be used as a color additive in food and prescription drugs.  By January 2027, the FDA has ordered that Red Dye No 3 must be removed from all food in the USA and by 2028--from all drugs.

First Ethical Diamond Made from Agave

1800 Tequila is a spirit brand that has managed to create a diamond made from Mexican tequila.

The unique 5.5 carat diamond was unveiled at this year’s Met Gala whose theme was centered around the Black Dandy expressionist form. The diamond was crafted into a brooch designed by Jonathan Raksha and was worn by actress and vocalist, Janelle Monae.
