2.Ā Choose a Lightweight, Natural Foundation
For an effortless, natural look, less is more! Opt for a lightweight, cruelty-free BB cream or tinted moisturizer with SPF. This way, youāre giving your skin a little extra love while protecting it from the sunāwithout loading up on heavy layers.
šĀ Eco Tip: Look for foundations or BB creams with refillable packaging or from brands that prioritize sustainable practices.
3.Ā Embrace Multi-Use Products
