What a Tool


Small Changes Add Up
If 10,000 Chicago Biters buy a makeup brush with a bamboo handle instead of one made from pine, we’ll save enough wood to produce 60 dining room tables.

Cocktail Tidbit
In Elizabethan England, makeup was considered a health threat, although women covered their faces in egg white for a glazed look.

Sick of suck-ups who follow the crowd? We're talking about your makeup brushes (this time). EcoTools, thankfully, are the real deal (and one of our top beauty-tool picks overall): It’s a new line of earth-friendly brushes and bath accessories created by Chicago-based Paris Presents. We’re crazy about the supersoft (and superaffordable) bamboo and recycled aluminum brushes made with animal-free taklon bristles - available individually or as a set of five, and packed in reusable and biodegradable pouches. Pre-makeup time, spruce up the rest of your bod with the reversible loofah and 100% cotton body buff. The company also earns kudos for dedicating 1% of ET sales to environmental causes. Who knew tools could be so, well, cool?  

Wanna Try?
EcoTools, available at Walgreens, Kmart and Ulta. Brushes, $3-$11.
