Elle's Pick: Best Online Beauty Websites
by Amy Lawrenson
"Love Lula is exactly what you would expect from a website specialising in organic beauty products; clean-looking and fuss free. All products featured on the site are free from parabens and contain more than 70% organic ingredients, while all the skincare is certified by a recognised organic body. For each brand the site goes into detailed explanation about everything from whether the packaging is recyclable to how natural or organic the products are in clear percentages. Elysambre make-up is our top pick on the site and the gift guide - split into price categories - is a really useful tool. |

"Lettuce. Grapes. Olives. No, we're not talking about the latest miracle diet, but the new wonder ingredients your face will fall in love with....try Herbfarmacy Replenish Face Cream, £16.50. It's fantastic for both normal and dry skin, and is packed with wrinkle-busting calendula, marshmallow and vitamin E....try Primavera's Organic Rosewater Hydrosol, £9.75, is a delicious-smelling spray that's infused with organic Turkish damask-rose blossoms, proven to help restore moisture and soften fine lines."

"There are, however, other natural ranges that use mineral screens – mainly titanium dioxide and zinc oxide – that do come up to the new EU standards. Several can be found on one of our favourite websites, LoveLula.com. Lula Braithwaite, the eponymous founder, carries natural ranges including the German brand Lavera, Gamarde from France, and Badger from the USA. Plus one of our favourites –SPF25 Ultra Light Facial Moisturiser by Kimberly Sayer (£23.59 for 150ml), which is Sarah’s daily staple). John Masters Organics, better known for hair care, has a sun care range too, including a topical antioxidant serum to boost protection, and is also available on LoveLula.com. |

The Body Beautiful - Beauty Online
"Internet shopping has helped to drive the dramatic rise in demand for organic products - many of which are tiny, difficult-to-source ranges. LoveLula.com, the "online organic apothecary", is the place to find such brands and guarantees products free from any chemicals that have even a hint of carcinogens.
The much-praised Ila,Spiezia and the home-grown range Pai are here, as well as a good selection of children's and baby skincare products. The site, strewn with pink butterflies, is a cute and kitschy affair with not a hint of hessian. There's help for acne and eczema as well as a personal service in the "Ask Lula" section. It has its own Facebook group and offers free samples with every order." |

Detox Your Make-up Bag
"Parabens
Found in: More than 90% of cosmetics, particularly ones containing water.
Why are they there? To keep make-up fresh.
Risk Factor: Some tests have shown that parabens can copy the effect of the female hormone oestrogen. Parabens have also been ....linked to dermatitis and allergies. One US study found parabens in the bodies of every one of the 239 people they tested.
How to avoid them: Also known as alkyl parahydroxy benzoates or butyl/methyl/ethyl/propyl/isobutyl parabens. So check the ingredient list carefully, or buy products that use safer alternatives...several websites sell parabens-free products including LoveLula.com." |

Organic Skincare as Nature Intended
"Natural Beauties should log on to www.lovelula.comfor a stylish, easy-to-navigate site that comes with the Soil Association's stamp of approval. It sells more than 350 organic skincare products, including exclusive offerings from brands such as Alqvimia and Naturetis.
Lula believes that skin responds best to natural ingredients. With this in mind she rejects and bodycare and beauty products containing parabens, artificial colours and fragrances as well as solvents such as propylene glycol.
Just because these products are chemical-free doesn't mean that they can't keep up with their high-tech counterparts. We like the sound of the Alqvimia Body Sculptor Oil(£38) which promises to dissolve fat"
