Yes to carrots. Yes to cucumbers. Yes to tomatoes.
No, I’m not just spiraling in some kind of Sark-inspired positivity vortex, I’m talking about a company that is good for your face, good for your wallet and good for the planet: Yes to Carrots.
Yes to Carrots makes a full range of hair and skincare products. You can get them at Target and other drugstores (and 17 countries worldwide) for mostly $15 and under. The best thing is that the company makes vegetable-specific ranges that address your skin and hair types.
So what vegetable should you be putting on your face? Carrots for normal to dry skin, tomatoes for oily to combination skin and cucumbers for normal to sensitive skin.
What vegetable should you be putting in your hair? Carrots are good for everybody, tomatoes are good for strengthening and volumizing, and cucumbers are best for colored hair. They also have recommendations for your hands, body and lips!
The thing that makes Yes to Carrots really special, though, is the company’s charity work. It supports a project called The Seed Fund, a 501(c)3 nonprofit that assists under-served communities with donations to provide seeds, plants, equipment, irrigation support and technical agricultural education. So, while you’re putting food on your face, Yes to Carrots is putting food into hungry communities, creating jobs and strengthening resources, both domestically and abroad.

And guess what? These products are really great! I’m not giving up my fancy eye creams just yet, but for a 99.6 percent natural, not tested on animals, gentle and effective face wash? You won’t find better than the Yes to Carrots products. The smell alone will win you over. I also especially love the lip products in carrot, berry, mint, citrus and melon — all organic. After all, it makes sense to use food products on your mouth! Right?
Yes to Yes to Carrots! Okay, now I’m spiraling.
