The Green Scene: Pangea Organics Makes Being Green Beautiful

There are many companies out there investing in natural and organic ingredients for their beauty products, but very few take the 'green' concept to all aspects of production. Pangea Organics is unique in this sense.Their Promise to consumers reads more like a much-sought-after beauty marital vows:

PEOPLE: Pangea Organics was founded on the principle belief that together, we can create a new, more sustainable future. We, for example, have chosen to help do so one bottle, bar and jar at a time.

PRACTICES: Pangea Organics products supports sustainable agriculture and culture – everything from fair trade sourcing and organic farming to living wages and the use of renewable, recycled and recyclable resources.

PLANET: What we choose to consume today, directly impacts how we – and future generations – will live tomorrow. That’s why our products are not only sensuous; they’re sustainable.

PRODUCTS: You’re already beautiful. We’re just here to help cleanse, tone and moisturize your skin. So we’ve created bodycare that doesn’t just smell nice, it is nice. Our products are always nurturing, handcrafted, organic and fair trade, and cruelty-free.

And there's more: now their products come in a 100% biodegradable packaging that is embedded with herb seeds - soak the box for 1 minute, plant it about 1" deep in soil, and a nice little herb garden emerges!

I'm addicted to their Shower Gel with Pyrenees Lavender and Cardamom (the lavender helps sooth and wash away tension while the cardamon cleanses and invigorates the skin) and to their Facial Cream with Malagasy Ylang Ylang and Linden Flower (the ylang ylang helps sooth tense skin while the linden flower softens and calms irritations).

Like all other Pangea Organics products, these are free of petroleum, sulfates, detergents, synthetic preservatives, GMOs, and artificial colors or fragrances.
