Love Beauty and Planet: Summer's Must-Have Eco-Beauty Brand

Summer is definitely here and I bet we could all feel the happy sun rays giving warmth on our skin and setting our moods positively. It's the perfect time for all that fun under the sun outdoor activities. But, we all know that too much exposure from the it harms our hair and skin. That's why protection especially this summer is so important.

This summer, a new eco-beauty brand, Love Beauty and Planet, reminds us to show ourselves and the planet some love through #SmallActsOfSummerLove. Just in time to welcome the sunny season, the brand is introducing two new collections of hair care and body care products: the Coconut Oil and Ylang-Ylang collection, and the Coconut Water and Mimosa Flower collection.

Infused with Philippine coconut oil to provide moisture, and ylang-ylang to give a floral, jasmine-like scent, the Coconut Oil and Ylang-Ylang collection is designed to repair and prevent split ends, and nourish skin with the feeling of early morning freshness. Meanwhile, the Coconut Water and Mimosa Flower collection keeps hair strong and full of bounce, and gently cleanses and refreshes skin, while giving off a fresh and delicious fragrance.

Last weekend, I had a pleasure to learn more about the brand and its advocacy to not only love ourselves by taking care of our hair and skin, but to also love the planet.

Pro-environment personalities/influencers were invited in front to share how we all could contribute in making our planet a cleaner and better place. Small acts of love go a long way.

As simple bringing our own reusable straws, utensils, and water bottles or bringing eco-bags for shopping, and supporting brands which are eco-friendly and cruelty-free, we can already make a difference.

So what makes Love Beauty and Planet different from other beauty brands and how do they really show love to the planet? Here are some amazing and admirable facts about them:

1. The ingredients are sustainably sourced from around the world such as Morocco, Comoros and even the Philippines. Yes, the Philippine coconut is one of their main ingredients used globally.

2. Their products are easily rinsed saving 10 seconds of shower which may result to supporting the drinking water needs of millions of people. How? The brand infuses fast-rinse technology into their conditioners, which means that it will break down and wash off faster, leading us to use less water in the shower.

3. All their bottles are made with 100% post-consumer recycled made from 100% recyclable plastics.

4. Used bottles may be deposited in selected SM branches/Watsons so they may recycle, reuse, and reduce waste.

5. The hair care and body care products are also certified vegan and cruelty-free, with
zero silicones, dyes, parabens or colorants.

6. You get a FREE eco-bag for a limited time when you buy at least three bottles of their products!

Knowing all these intentional efforts from the brand to help save the planet, is enough to make me really love them and make room for their products in my favorite things on earth!

I hope many other brands will follow suit and think of how they will greatly contribute to preserving and healing our planet and not contribute more to wastes that many generations after our children will inherit. Thanks #LoveBeautyAndPlanetPH for coming up with well-thought eco-friendly products which help make us and our planet more beautiful each day.
