You don't have to be Irish to celebrate St. Patrick's Day; everyone can be Irish today. Just because! Do you want to wear green or go green? St. Patrick's Day may be a good day for a green choice. Here are some ideas for you if you choose to go green - all featured here in the last year. These are organic and natural beauty products that have earned their place in my life.John Masters, Rahua Beauty, and WEN hair care products are natural choices to make your hair shine. You can find them at Beautorium, New London Pharmacy, and Chaz Dean, respectively - and at other sites.
Try MELVITA skin care. Founded in Ardèche, France by beekeeper and biologist Bernard Chevilliat in 1983, Melvita (meaning "honey and life" in Latin) has always been a passionate advocate for the complete organic lifestyle. Check out the many MELVITA options at SkinStore.com.
Those beekeepers are onto something. Beecology has a beautiful line of skin-care and hair-care products.
Looking for fragrance? How about Kō Denmark Organic Jasmine + Neroli Roll-On Perfume for pure jasmine and neroli oils combined to create a heavenly fragrance. Or Ambre Blends, unique essential oils with an amber base for a sultry sophistication?
Holly Green at Norabloom offers a wonderful botanical Rose Bud Creme Cleanser. It contains an impressive list of good-for-your-skin ingredients, and as you might imagine, the natural fragrance is heavenly.
Kiehl's Organic Açaí Skin Care Collection The four-product line is everything you would expect from Kiehl's and more. Introduced last year, it's Ecocert and Cradle-to-Cradle certified.
My favorite U.S.-made olive oil is made by McEvoy Ranch. Just in case you aren't a "foodie," McEvoy Ranch makes some of the best olive oils on earth. They are certified organic - not simply great, but award-winning. Beautyhabit offers 80 Acres, a small line of skin- and body-care products enriched with McEvoy Ranch estate-produced pure, organic olive oil.
You won't find yourself sacrificing elegance for purity when you use these products. They are luxury defined. Want to add your own favorites in the comments?
I think going as green as possible is more important than wearing green one day out of the year. Nevertheless, I'll be wearing green today. I have a smattering of Irish blood in me!
P.S. If you click on the links here, you can learn more about the products and where to find them.

And, a very Happy St. Patrick's Day to you! Will you be sporting green eye shadow today? I will :-)
Hey there, Eileen! I wore Mirage because I wore a green jacket with bright gold buttons. Might have looked dorky with green eye shadow.
Happy St Patrick's Day! We're going to the parade on Sunday and I have a wool sweater with green shamrocks all over it. Where or when else could I possibly wear that thing?
I will, however, wear dark green nail polish....and fragrance? I'm contemplating CdG Calamus or Lily, or Chanel's Bel Respiro :-) Are you wearing a green fragrance?
Lovethescents, that is so funny because I actually thought about wearing a green scent today! I wore Ophelia by Heeley.
Great idea, Charlestongirl! :-)
Hey thanks! Which of the two did you end up wearing?
