With claims of “green” and “natural” not always what they seem, shopping for environmentally friendly products takes equal parts research, skepticism and patience. Online, where it’s not always easy to read the “fine print,” it can become even trickier. But some sites out there are making it easier for consumers who want to make a difference when they’re making a purchase. Here are three worth checking out:
Vine.com
Vine.com has high standards and features “boutiques” that are dedicated to products that have been certified local, organic, gluten-free, Fair Trade, cruelty-free, etc. The array of products ranges from health and beauty to fitness gear to groceries, apparel and kid stuff. Plus, two-day shipping is free when you spend $49 or more.
Drugstore.com
Not everything on Drugstore.com is green and natural — unless you shop the Green & Natural Store. Check the tabs at the top of the page to find the Green & Natural store, and you’ll open the door to more than 7,600 products that include baby, beauty, pet and skin care. There’s a huge selection of natural vitamins and supplements, and you can shop for on-sale items to get the biggest savings.
Hipcycle.com
If you’re into upcycled shopping, prepare to fall in love. Hipcycle.com boasts tons of cool products, from housewares and furniture to apparel and jewelry, that have been reinvented for a second act. (And it just might give you new ideas of what to do with some things around your house!) Shipping is free for most orders over $49.
