The more uses you can get out of one product, the better.  Less packaging, less energy, less waste, and less money spent are all good things but memories of those “shampoo plus conditioner” horrors of the 80’s and 90’s turned us off to them.  While they are the greenest way to go, “jack of all trades, master of none” is not what you want from your beauty products.  We’ve discovered, sometimes by accident, a few products that master ALL of their intended (and some non intended) uses…

Patyka Huile Absolute Serum is as fantastic a makeup primer as it is a frizz tamer for hair as it is a cuticle healer as it is an after-shave serum that leaves skin silky, not shiny.  It really does all four of these well and many have reported even more uses! Silicone free and rich in active organic plant extracts, this serum is great to have around for many reasons.

Skinny Skinnys Basil & Mint Shaving Soap is great for men and women, smells fabulous, lathers well and when shaving, lets the razor glide right over the skin. As an everyday soap, it works beautifully on combination skin with tea tree and aloe that soothe and refresh. The greenest part about this soap is not just it’s use for shaving as well as cleansing but the fact that it lasts forever!  We’ve had ours for months!

Our little Sustainable Sea Silk Sponges have replaced all of our cotton pads and latex sponges.  Dampen with water and you have the perfect foundation sponge that will give you an airbrush finish.  Rinse clean and apply your favorite makeup remover to gently yet thoroughly wipe away makeup.  One sponge to apply and remove and no waste!  These are naturally antibacterial, wont fall apart and can last ages.

Patyka Biokaliftin Intensive Cleanser is a makeup remover, cleanser, and moisturizer in one bottle!  Use as a makeup remover first, then use with water to cleanse thoroughly. The perfect blend of organic ingredients leaves skin clean and hydrated. Luxury skin care is rarely multitasking (think: neck cream, eye cream, bust cream, face cream, face serum, night cream, day cream…) so its nice to have a high quality, high end product that does it all without sacrificing the beautiful scent, look and feel of luxury. At $42, it’s quite economical considering its multiple uses.
