To see how much of an influence celebrities have on our cosmetic purchase decisions all you have to do is open up Snapchat, Instagram, or Twitter to see what's trending. From Kylie Lips to Fenty Beauty, people are quick to jump on the latest bandwagon!
What's even more exciting for us at Civilized Cosmetics however is seeing how quickly the green beauty products movement seems to be growing and all the celebs that are opting for natural, organic cosmetics. You may be aware of the more vocal green beauties like Gwyneth (Paltrow), Jessica Alba (Honest Beauty) and Miranda Kerr (KORA skincare founder) but there are loads more celebs taking up arms against toxic chemicals in cosmetics whom you may not yet know of. Read on to see which of your fav's are leading the green beauty movement.
Not one to shy away from advocating for causes she believes in, Shailene Woodley has long been a proponent of natural beauty and says she uses 100% green beauty products. In fact, for her role in Big Little Lies, Woodley actually had to have her skin transformed from "fresh and good-looking" into dull and drab according to her on-set makeup artist so that she could "enhance her tiredness, sadness, and anger" and fully get into character.
This one time Charlies Angel used to struggle with her skin quite a lot as she suffered from severe acne, mostly due to junk food. In her book "The Body Book: The Law of Hunger, the Science of Strength, and Other Ways to Love Your Amazing Body" Diaz shared how changing her eating habits and using green beauty products plays a major role in her choosing to age gracefully and give up botox for good. Judging on how amazing this lady looks, we'd gladly take her advice!
It's hard to believe it's been 22 years have gone by since her "Clueless" days because Alicia Silverstone still looks as good as she did at 19 years old. Silverstone credits her vegan lifestyle as a major reason her skin looks so good, as well as products that are "vegan, eco-friendly, and of high quality and effectiveness" - Fox News. Check, check, and check - we're totally onboard with all her requirements here at CC!
Another 90's beauty that seems to never age, Aniston has long been a proponent of natural beauty, touting egg white and avocado masks as one of her best DIY beauty secrets. Our favorite Friend from across the hallway also sticks to paraben free skincare such as Aveeno's Daily Moisturizing Lotion.
It's hard to mention anything beauty these days without a Kardashian popping up! This time though, it's all for good. Middle sis, Kourtney, has come out in support of clean beauty products for the Kardashian Beauty line and has said that as a mom, "I've been extra invested in our list of no-no ingredients. It's an ingredients black list that we don't allow into the products — no parabens, no sulfates."
