One of the best beauty buys out is the new geoGirl line. Its awesome because it is so environmentally friendly, using recycled materials in its packaging, they're made with natural ingredients and free of chemicals. There's a full range of color cosmetics...but the brand knows that to look your best you have to start with great skin care.
The 'Be Good' moisturizer is a terrific non-greasy one around $6 - not only does it have ingredients like aloe, which soothes skin, it also has an spf 15. Even though it is fall, SPF is so important, so don't leave home without this one. Check it out at www.geogirl.com.
What about makeup buys?After you moisturize the next most important thing is a lightweight foundation. Avon has an amazing new one:the 'Ideal Flawless Invisible Coverage,' also has SPF 15 -so key and its really revolutionary, over 4 years in the making - with Avon's invisiblend technology that uses skin-matching pigments to create what they call a 'breathable network' of undetectable coverage.
