Vegetarian Star

New Yorkers and people from all over the globe will be headed out to their city’s destination for celebrations designed to rev up the fashion industry by encouraging consumers to get out and buy during the annual Fashion’s Night Out on September 10, 2010.

New York city’s Fashion’s Night Out will feature some green events, like it did last year when the Stella McCartney store offered vegetarian food.

Vegan cosmetic creator and model Josie Maran will be at the Sephoria’s Fifth Avenue Boutique giving mini makeovers and meet and greets to visitors.

Moby credits his mother for turning him on to veganism and animal rights, as he told Vegetarian Times she tried to “sneak tofu into my food and I would be outraged.”

Moby eventually learned to love the life his mother was trying to impress on him and as we approach Mother’s Day, model and eco friendly beauty products entrepreneur Josie Maran also thanks her mother for bringing her up environmentally friendly.

“My mom is my role model for being green,” Maran said, and revealed that earlier that afternoon she had shown her own daughter how to plant produce in the garden.

Do you have your mother to thank for being vegetarian and green?

Josie Maran has her own line of cosmetics that are sourced from natural ingredients and are not tested on animals.

Maran was the face of Maybeline for a decade and soon realized she was more than just a pretty face for the cosmetic industry–she was an entrepreneur as well.

Launched in 2006, the products she prides on being free of toxic ingredients such as parabens and petrochemicals are being demanded by celebrity make up artists that do work for stars like Megan Fox.

The model who tries to eat organic and vegetarian as much as possible made a list of things never to put in her eyeliner, lipstick and blush and stuck with it.

“I have a no-no list and I aim to make my products as natural and organic as possible,” Maran told The Daily Green. “Everything has to be nontoxic. We have no parabens, no petrochemicals. We’re always reformulating. My goal is to make products nontoxic and healthy. You have to be realistic about getting high performing makeup. There are chemicals that aren’t toxic. We’ve put them together in a new way that’s not toxic. You have to ask a a lot of questions of the lab. And we’re doing as much research into the ingredients as possible and reformulating when things aren’t as good as they could be.”

Maran says when it comes to ingredients, less is more.

If you’re spending your entire lunch hour reading the bottle at the drug store, you should probably leave it on the shelf.
