LOOK OUT FOR YOUR LOCKS
Its name might make you think otherwise, but the Noughty haircare line is serious about being good. Its entire range of 97 percent natural, scientifically backed products are free of parabens, silicones, petrochemicals and sulphates. They’re also vegan and never tested on animals, and they’re not too hard on your pocketbook either. Head to local CVS stores to find options for every hair type and concern, including the To the Rescue line of shampoo, conditioner and treatments that uses ingredients like sweet almond and sunflower seed extracts to repair dry, damaged and frizzy hair ($9.99 to $12.99); and the Wave Hello collection that features ingredients like sea kelp extract and avocado oil to help define, tame and control curls ($9.99 to $12.99).
A GOOD WAY TO GLOSS OVER
The new Jammy Lips Sheer Lacquer Lip Tint ($12) from INC.redible Cosmetics makes it super-easy to give your lips some love. Just swipe on the highshine gloss enriched with natural active ingredients for all-day hydration and protection for your pucker. The 100 percent vegan and cruelty-free formulation is available in four wearable and wittily named shades: Squeeze Me (coral), Slow Jamz (berry red), When Life Gives You Fruit (apricot) and Fruity Feels (dusky pink).
