Eco-Luxury Nail Care
Eco-beauty products are better for the Earth and you

Sure, your lightbulbs are energy efficient and your diet is organic, but what about your nails? How eco-friendly are they?

Odds are, the nail polish you use contains at least three chemicals: DBP, formaldehyde and toluene. The additives can be harmful to the Earth and our bodies-especially if you’re pregnant.
The answer: “safe nail polish.” Look for nail lacquers from SpaRitual, a vegan and eco-friendly personal care line dedicated to the spa tradition. Its nail-care collection is DBP-, formaldehyde- and toluene-free, and eco-friendly from top to bottom, including the bottles the products come in and the ink on their labels.

In fact, the lacquers and nail elixirs were recently approved by Aveda to be used in its network of concept spas and salons for having met the spa brand’s famously stringent criteria for eco-beauty products.

“SpaRitual’s dedication to the environment is a cornerstone of the brand, and by supporting SpaRitual you are supporting an eco-conscious, holistic beauty movement,” says Shel Pink, creator of SpaRitual.

Even its colors suggest eco-awareness, as in “Epiphany,” a soft petal pink representing sensitivity and balance. sparitual.com
