Teens Turning Green

Alaffia’s Mango Body Butter is a super hydrating, vacation-in-a-bottle-scented cream that leaves skin silky soft and glowing. An exotic blend of essential oils and plant extracts give this body lotion its tropically fruity scent. This Teens Turning Green favorite is formulated with a base of Fair Trade, Handcrafted shea butter and other antioxidant-rich indigenous plant oils. Using traditional non-chemical methods, Alaffia produces the cream in small batches at their facility in Olympia, Washington to ensure that their customers are getting the cleanest, most natural product possible. Alaffia provides fair wages to members of their Shea Butter Cooperative in Togo, Africa, where they also donate 10% of the proceeds to community enhancement projects.

Astara Sunstar Purifying Mask Price: $21.00

Astara’s multi-tasking mask is the backbone of the Teens Turning Green skin care collection, tackling a myriad of skin issues. This botanical powerhouse effectively purifies pores with tea tree oil, which also decongests the skin and stimulates circulation. Astara’s Sunstar Purifying Mask absorbs excess oil and sebum secretions while Bentonite Clay soothes inflamed skin, helping to curb redness and irritation. Initially this mask did not quite meet Whole Foods Market Premium Body Care standards, so Astara company owner and former supermodel Sunny Griffin reformulated the product to meet these strict standards. Intent on supporting the next generation and on a quest to find the safest and healthiest products, this experience has inspired Sunny to reformulate her entire Astara line to   make it the cleanest it can be.

Handmade in small batches by a family-owned company in Sonoma County, California, the Benedetta Sassy Sacred Soap is a vibrantly scented body wash that thoroughly cleanses while softening skin. Benedetta has painstakingly avoided the use of synthetic or chemically produced ingredients (namely lye), resulting in a 100% fresh shower favorite. With its invigorating scent derived from organic and biodynamic essential oils including Rosemary and Lemongrass, the Benedetta Sassy Sacred Soap also double-times as a fabulous soap for shaving. This luscious soap uses certified fair trade shea butter, leaving silky soft skin in its trail.

Depth’s refreshing Sea Foam cleanser is a great addition to the Teens Turning Green collection. Renowned for their hydrating and nutritive benefits, marine botanicals are combined with gentle cleansers to remove impurities and leave skin soft, clean and nourished. All while a warm and gentle aroma reminiscent of a lavish tropical bouquet soothes the senses.

Susan Black, EO® Products founder and mother to a pre-teen daughter, has a vested interest in working with Teens Turning Green. Based in EO®’s use of aromatic and therapeutic essential oils, Black created an exclusive version of her USDA Certified Organic Sanitizing Spray for this special collection. She sourced organic Rosemary and Peppermint essential oils to create the spray, a disinfecting hand sanitizer that refreshes and kills germs naturally with an invigorating scent. With a 62% organic alcohol content, the EO® Rosemary Mint Sanitizing Spray sanitizes on contact in a purse-sized portable that is a must-have for every teen on the go.

Hand-made using traditional soap-making methods, the Pomega5 Pomegranate Blemish Cleansing Bar packs powerful clearing agents, namely essential oils of myrtle, lemongrass and eucalyptus. This olive oil-based, naturally preservative-free bar cleanses face and body, while the mini bark particles found at the soap’s edges gently exfoliate. The Pomegranate Blemish Bar cleanses and disinfects pores without drying, leaving skin supple and senses enlivened.

Encased in a sleek, glass spray bottle, the Pomega5 Pomegranate Toning Mist is the icing on the cake that is the Teens Turning Green collection. This refreshing facial spray is based on toning distilled waters of rose and cornflower. Cucumber and mallow flower work to naturally balance the skin’s pH, while antioxidant-rich pomegranate seed oil purifies, soothes and protects. A touch of lime blossom provides an innocently fresh, clean and citrusy scent.

This lightweight, balancing, and soothing hydrator is jam-packed with its namesake antioxidant ingredient, pomegranate seed oil, along with healing calendula and purifying verbena and lemongrass. Perfectly Pom Moisturizer is formulated entirely from scratch without any fillers, parabens or synthetic fragrances. Perfect for all skin types, particularly oily or problem skin, the deliciously-fragrant cream feels soft and silky to the touch, yet absorbs immediately to leave skin with a healthy glow and a renewed freshness.
