Organic Beauty Products at CVS
From LoveToKnow Organic
Organic beauty products at CVS Pharmacy are available both online and in the stores of the pharmacies. Whether you are looking for organic facial creams or organic cotton balls to remove makeup at the end of the day, CVS may have the product you are looking for.
Organic and Natural Products
CVS carries a variety of health and beauty products that are either natural, organic, or both. Many consumers insist on natural and organic beauty products because they have concerns about exposure to toxic chemicals and other pollutants from the products they buy. Remember that toxins don't have to be eaten to wind up within a body's system, so organic beauty items are a nice addition to an already natural and organic lifestyle.
Organic beauty products are also produced with sustainability in mind, which appeals to consumers who are attempting to go green.
Types of Organic Beauty Products at CVS
Although availability in stores and online varies, CVS generally maintains an inventory of organic beauty products in stock.
- Facial Cleansers: CVS carries brands like Avalon Organic Botanicals Therapeutic Lavender Facial Cleansing Gel and Lavera Basis Organic Mint Cleansing Gel for Oily and Impure Skin.
- Lotions: Organique Shea Butter Body Lotion and Otopia Organic Purity Moisturizing Soothing Cream for Newborns are two of the lotion products offered through CVS within their stock of organic beauty products.
- Hair Care: CVS offers organic options for hair care including Nature's Gate Organic Aloe and Lavender Shampoo as well as Desert Essence Organic Hair Care Red Raspberry Conditioner.
CVS also carries organic beauty accessories like Organic Essentials Triple Size Cotton Balls.
Makeup
Inventory can vary from one CVS store to another, but one of the biggest makeup brands offered as natural by CVS is Boots Botanics. This company uses natural ingredients to produce their makeup and is often presented by CVS as a natural alternative to conventional makeup products.
Other makeup brands that are often available through CVS that are either organic or touted as natural include Green by Nature and Lavera.
Keep in mind that any item –makeup or otherwise- that is advertised as natural is not necessarily organic. In fact, consumers who prefer organic beauty products at CVS should always make sure that the items they purchase are labeled as organic. The only way to ensure a product is comprised of completely organic materials is to look for a label that specifies 100 percent organic.
Purchase Beauty Products at CVS
Beauty products –both organic and other- can be purchased at CVS locations. To find a local CVS, check the CVS online directory where you can search for a local CVS based on city, state, or zip code. Using this tool you can further specify what services you are looking for, but you cannot guarantee that a specific CVS will have the organic products you are looking for unless you call the CVS to verify what products are available for purchase.
A variety of organic items can also be purchased online through the CVS website. Although you may be able to find a wider variety of organic items through the CVS website than you might find in a local store, items can go out of stock online just like they can in a local store.
If you want to purchase a particular organic beauty product that is not offered at CVS, talk to the manager to find out if the product can be specially ordered or perhaps added to the routine stock of items offered at the store.
Save at CVS
CVS often offers online coupons that can be printed and used to reduce the cost of organic beauty products. Members of the Extra Care Customers Rewards Program can save even more when coupling card discounts along with coupons.
