- Secret Sustainable Packaging Aluminum-Free Deodorant With Essential Oils

Not only is this essential oil Secret brand deodorant paraben-, aluminum-, cruelty-, and dye-free, but it is also made with no plastic packaging and 90% post-consumer recycled paper. Smell good, and save the Earth, too!

- Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration Weightless Face Lotion SPF 30

Every warmer-weather skincare regimen needs a good facial sunscreen.

With this Hawaiian Tropic reef-friendly, cruelty free SPF 30 facial sunscreen, you can protect yourself on even the sunniest days this spring.
- Laneige Lip Treatment Balm

If you’re a fan of Korean skincare, chances are you’ve heard of Laneige and their now-famous Lip Sleeping Mask. This new Laneige lip treatment balm is perfect for keeping your lips soft and full, especially if you hate the feeling of sticky lipgloss. This balm contains Coconut Oil and smells like Piña Coladas, and if that doesn’t scream tropical weather, I don’t know what does.
- Youth To The People Superclay Purify + Clear Power Mask
-
Clay masks are a must-have in every self-care routine. This Youth To the People volcanic, and french green, and white clay mask also contains ingredients like red willow bark and kombucha to cleanse your pores, exfoliate, and prevent breakouts, all while retaining your skin’s natural moisture.
