Glow Green: Eco-Friendly Beauty & Wellness at The Floating Lotus

Because glowing skin should never come at the planet’s expense

Hey hey — it’s April, and around here, that means it’s time to show some extra love to Mama Earth! At The Floating Lotus, Earth Month isn’t just a calendar event. It’s a reminder of why we do what we do. Yes, we’re always down for a fresh spring facial, but our commitment to sustainability goes far beyond skincare trends. We’ve always believed beauty and wellness should feel good and do good.

When I brought Eminence Organics into the spa in 2009, it wasn’t because organic skincare was the hot new thing. It was because I fell in love with their mission. They plant a tree for every single product sold. That means your serum, masque, or moisturizer isn’t just nourishing your skin, it’s also reforesting the planet. And that? That feels right.

Every time you take home one of your Eminence favorites, you’re doing more than treating yourself — you’re flipping the tree counter. It’s beauty with real roots.

But our green glow-up doesn’t stop there.

Sustainability is woven into the everyday rhythm of The Floating Lotus, from our retail stock to the choices we make. We’re constantly asking ourselves: How can we glow brighter and tread lighter? We love refillable options, recyclable packaging, and routines as kind to the Earth as to your skin.

And let’s be clear: Eco-conscious beauty doesn’t have to mean crunchy or complicated. Some of our favorite green swaps are simple, modern, and totally luxe.

Start with Your Skincare

Eminence Organics delivers that farm-to-face glow using pure botanicals and zero harsh chemicals. It’s skincare that feels indulgent, elevated, and intentional.

Then There’s SPF.

We’re big fans of zinc-based sunscreens that protect your skin and the ocean. (Because your glow should never come at the coral reefs’ expense.)

And Don’t Forget Packaging

Glass jars, bamboo lids, compostable boxes. With Eminence, your bathroom shelf has never looked so chic and sustainable.

Simple Swaps

Going green doesn’t mean overhauling your life. It just means choosing with care. Here are a few small-but-mighty swaps we love:

✨ Use multi-use masques instead of single-use sheet masks. You can even grab the ones we use in the treatment room—available in our boutique and online.
✨ Empty Eminence jars make adorable holders for travel products, DIY scrubs, or even baby succulents. (Yes, we’re serious. Plant babies!)
✨ And yep, just turning off the tap while you cleanse makes a real impact.

So this Earth Month, let’s make sustainability feel joyful, easy, and maybe even a little magical. Whether you’re restocking your faves, booking a plant-powered facial, or being a more mindful with your daily routine—every choice matters.

Swing by the spa to pick up your glow-getters. Let’s celebrate Earth Month the Lotus way: intentionally, beautifully, and with love for our big, wild, wonderful planet.

Let’s glow green together.
