But in order for skin care to be real self-care, our products should be just as safe as they are enjoyable. There are tons of intriguing skin care trends out there—but many beauty products contain chemical ingredients that haven’t been thoroughly studied1. While Europe has banned some 1,300 ingredients, the U.S. has only banned or partially restricted about 302. That’s why we’ve set our sights on skin care products that bring us closer to nature. That line of inquiry brought us to Sky Organics, a clean beauty brand that keeps natural ingredients at the very heart of their mission. Sky’s Youth Boost skin care line features cruelty-free formulas that meet clean beauty standards while sparking self-love (as any ritual should). There’s no need to get lost in the wilderness of natural ingredients—just keep your eyes open for the most important ones: Bakuchiol is also the star of the Youth Boost Bakuchiol Night Serum, plus soothing ingredients like organic marula, rosehips, and jojoba oils. Skin care 101: It’s important to layer on a natural, high-quality night serum before you catch some shut-eye. Why? Because our skin goes into “repair mode” overnight4 and needs all the help it can get.  Devon’s first book, Earth Women, is coming soon.
