Iero Beauty
What to love: Partnership with Pact Collective, a non-profit membership organization that collects hard-to-recycle beauty products via mail-in or bins, and diverts them from the landfill. Recyclable packaging. Pledges 1% of annual sales to environmental causes — member of the 1% for the Planet, a global network of businesses, individuals and nonprofit organizations tackling our planet's most pressing environmental issues.

What to try: Iero Beauty Moonkissed Radiant Moisture Restorative Emulsion, $68

This crystal-infused serum-like emulsion will soothe dehydrated, stressed and sensitive skin with concentrated moisture. You get to choose how to use it: before heavier night creams or oils, instead of a serum, as a moisturizer, or as an addition to your anti-age care, as it also has restorative properties.

Alpine Provisions
What to love: 100% recyclable or compostable and renewable packaging. 1% of all their sales benefit a scholarship fund created in partnership with the Colorado Outward Bound School that provides young adults with outdoor leadership programs in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, Utah, Alaska, and Wyoming.

What to try: Alpine Provisions Castile Body Wash in Fir + Sage, $19

Sustainably-sourced essential oil blend of fir and sage alone is enough to make you feel like you're showering in the middle of a forest (with all the comforts of modern plumbing, of course). Coconut and olive oil provide natural, organic care for the skin, leaving it refreshed and with that clean feel.

Half Magic
What to love: Partnered with the aforementioned Pact Collective to make recycling our empties as easy as sending a postcard. Their single eye shadows come in paperfoam packaging which you can compost, even at home. Well presented reports on their website on products' packaging recycled content, making it easy to get key info at first glance. Partnership with Beauty 2 the Streetz which supports the people without housing on Skid Row in Los Angeles.

What to try: Half Magic Chromaddiction Shimmer, $24

For lovers of all things shimmer, great way to get to know this brand is by trying one of 4 fairy-like, buildable eye colors. They can be used as eye shadow or eyeliner for precise lines and details. You will find them long-lasting and smudge-proof. And gorgeous, of course!

Soshe
What to love: 1% For the Planet members. Donates a percentage of every product purchased to fund the collection of 2x the weight of every mascara in low-value plastic waste from oceans and landfills. Working with Wands for Wildlife, an organization which inspires people to help wildlife and the environment through re-purposing discarded mascara wands for use in wildlife care, art and education. Pact Collective member; certified plastic-negative (for every product they sell that contains plastic, they fund the removal of at least twice as much nature-bound plastic waste from landfills and natural environments to be recycled and repurposed).

What to try: Soshe Glam Refillable Mascara, $29

Have you thought about a moment when you find The One? We mean mascara, of course; sometimes it seems it would be easier to find a soul mate than a mascara that works as spectacularly as we want. If you're still on the testing grounds for The One for you, why not try this lengthening and defining one? The refillable packaging means you never get to feel guilty about going through mascara as quickly as you do.
