April 22nd is Earth Day and while Mother Nature and I haven't exactly been on the best of terms lately (um, where exactly is spring?), this Earth Day, I'm going to try and call a truce. In fact, I'm even going to celebrate all that is green and earthy in the best way possible - with a huge beauty haul! 

Going green with your beauty is easier now than ever. There are some great brands out there that produce organic or non-toxic products that are good for you and good for the Earth. In purchasing for enviro beauty products, try looking for biodegradable, all natural, food grade ingredients. And steer clear of parabens, sulfates and silicones. We rounded up 16 of some of our favourite eco friendly beauty buys for your Earth Day:
