Beauty Book: Gorgeously Green by Sophie Uliano

8 Simple Steps to an Earth-Friendly Life

Gorgeously Green is a beauty book to encourage you to make one simple change, that’s all it takes to make a difference!  If you make two it’s even better.  Sophie Uliano gives you 8 steps to work towards an earth-friendly life.  Personally, I want to have a sustainable life with style, I’ve always paired denim with diamonds, it’s so much more interesting than being totally glam all the time.  Sophie admits that she was much more concerned about her compact than she ever was in compost but she’s learned that she can do both and be gorgeous and green at the same time!

Rest Assured Beauty-full Readers

I used to think it was all about wearing hemp and eating organic tofu.  I thought I would have to turn into one of those zealous do-gooders with unshaven armpits.  Trust me, this is not what the Gorgeously Green program is about.  Far from it.  We are going to be busting out in bright and wonderful colors.  We’re going to be painting our nails and our lips and wearing the latest, hippest fashions.  (p. 7)

I must admit this thought crossed my mind, I have a girlfriend who calls some of the women in our community “crunchy granola” because they are so health-full and natural that they reject the beauty-full.  There is something in this book for every woman, if you’re looking for DIY beauty recipes, or all natural ways to bring up baby all from a woman who is living it. 

There are also Gorgeously Green recipes for cookies and stew with the promise of more on the website (you’ll need the super secret password provided in the book to get to those).
