According to WWD, Cover Girl will be launching an all-natural, synthetics-free, beauty line entitled “Nature Luxe.” With the aim to fulfill the beauty uprise and demand for lighter, natural, and healthier makeup, Procter and Gamble is hoping this line will appeal to both green goddesses and high-end/prestige cosmetic users.

Coming to your nearest drugstore Spring 2011, with mega-star Taylor Swift simultaneously launching her Cover Girl ads alongside the new line, I’m sure finding new consumers to try their latest all-natural beauty line isn’t going to be a problem. I, for one, cannot wait to see if it lives up to my own green beauty standards.

Kiss My Face Peace Soap is like the ultimate superhero of soaps. It has the ability to transform into any  type of cleaning agent AND bring peace to the planet. I kid you not, this liquid lather kills germs and fights crime. 

Though, at first pour this product doesn’t seem sudsy enough, and perhaps a bit too watery, with a couple more rubs it’s capable of getting out any stain or stench. My favorite is the Lavender Mandarin, which has the most calming and clean smell I’ve ever sniffed. I use it as a laundry detergent, shampoo, you name it. According to Kiss My Face, it has 101 uses. And it’s great for babies, too, as it is entirely derived from natural materials and won’t harm even the most sensitive of skin. Be sure to buy the big one because, if you love the aroma of delicious cleanliness, you’ll be using it on everything.

Here are five (out of 101) of my favorite uses for Kiss My Face’s  Peace Soap:

1. Great for cleaning makeup brushes. It’s the first use to pop up on the website and, boy, are they right. Cheaper, better smelling, and more efficient than regular makeup brush cleanser.

2. Bath time. I’m actually insanely allergic to regular bubble bath. This is so gentle and leaves the most adorable fragrance on skin.

3.Clarifying Shampoo. This removes a lot of gunk with out leaving hair feel like it was stripped of all the good oils and for much less than salon brands.

4. Washing delicates/Hand washing. It works great as a clothing detergent. Clothes smell absolutely divine. I use it for small loads, like delicates and hand washables.

5. Shower. It’s a great body wash.
