Drugstore Beauty Products with a Conscience

Made with only three organic ingredients (sweet almond, olive and jojoba oils), S.W. Basics removes stubborn eye makeup without irritation. Pro tip: Swipe any excess oil down arms and legs to create a dewy sheen.

S.W. Basics Makeup Remover ($14)

This sweet-smelling facial cleanser is gentle enough for all skin types but still super-effective, thanks to tropical fruit enzymes and emollients (buh-bye, impurities).

Alba Botanica Pineapple Enzyme Facial Cleanser ($8)

No harsh chemicals, no parabens, no phthalates, no cruelty, no nonsense. Only rich, creamy, anti-aging moisture—using the likes of vitamin E and green tea—delivered straight to your face.

JASON C-Effects Crème ($18)

This fuss-free, bare-bones organic sunblock is the answer to family beach day. The convenient stick can even be dabbed onto your hair part for greaseless scalp protection, too.

Badger Unscented Face Stick ($10)

This vegan, not-animal-tested formula creates full, thick lashes thanks to a double-depth brush. Consciousness bonus: BWC uses sustainable palm oil, which is harvested in an ethical way that won’t cause deforestation or harm orangutan populations.

Beauty Without Cruelty Full Volume Mascara ($16)

Gluten-free, preservative-free, vegan and oh-so-pretty, this little powder is both powerful and versatile. Swipe over eyelids to illuminate your peepers, or dust over cheekbones for a subtle glow.

Ecco Bella FlowerColor Shimmer Dust ($15)

A sheer, subtle lip color with an environmental sidebar: Give your empty tube back to Burt's “Recycle on Us” program, and they'll melt it down and reuse it.

Burt’s Bees Lip Shimmer Stick ($4)

No formaldehyde (yay) and no nasty fumes mean no room for a toxic mani in your life.

HoneyBee Gardens WaterColors Nail Enamel ($11)

Organic shea and coconut oils create a rich, creamy lather in a delish scent. We love the pretty packaging (also made from recycled paper products).

South of France Mediterranean Fig Soap ($8)

It takes something pretty special to get us to ditch our industrial-strength antiperspirant (hello, sweaty summer). But Tom’s won us over: Not only is the brand clear about ingredients’ purpose and source (see here), this stick works.

Tom’s Naturally Dry Antiperspirant ($6)

Free of all the bad stuff (parabens and sulfates) and yet still safe for color-treated hair. Plus, it smells wonderful.

Renpure Coconut Cream Nourishing Shampoo ($10)

Three organic essential oils (including cure-all tea tree oil) come together to stimulate your scalp and condition roots.

Giovanni Tea Tree Triple Treat Conditioner ($8)

A conditioning mask so natural (olive oil, eggs, herbs and wheat germ), you could actually DIY the whole thing. Or just buy this tub.

ORS Hair Mayonnaise ($10)

Everything you want (natural spicy citrus and sweet berry notes), nothing you don’t (gross stuff like benzene and nitro-musks). Signature scent: found.

Pacifica Perfume Roll-On in Tuscan Blood Orange ($12)
