w: wellness & beauty: The Good Life is The Green Life
August 27th, 2008. Written By Tracy Hepler.
As we all become more eco-aware about what products to buy and companies to support, wouldn’t it be great if there was a one stop eco-shop to find all of these things?
Santa Monica residents are in luck: The Green Life eco-boutique is celebrating their grand opening this weekend. The Green Life sprung from owner Scott O’Brien’s senior thesis at Loyola Marymount University. Scott had begun moving towards a more eco-friendly lifestyle. After months of researching and sampling, Scott realized that he could take his thesis out of the classroom and into the real world.
The Green Life promises, “eco-friendly living with the utmost style”. With products like Amenity Organic bed linens, Pangea Organics skincare, and Mrs. Meyers cleaning products, you know that you aren’t sacrificing your comfort or the planet. Plus new products arrive weekly, so there is always something new to discover. Sounds like the Good Life in deed
ydt EVENT: If your Labor Day Weekend has you staying in town, come check out the grand opening! There will be an official ribbon cutting on Friday, August 29th at 11 a.m. Followed by organic wines and catering provided by Rawvolution throughout the day. Plus, discounted pricing all weekend long. See Event listing here.
ydt GIVEAWAY: Enter to win a $25 Gift Certificate to The Green Life by simply letting us know what green product is missing in your life. Maybe The Green Life already has it, maybe they should carry it, or maybe you’re just kinky. Either way, creativity wins!
The Green Life is located at 2409 Main St. Santa Monica CA. Phone: 310.392. 4702. Web: thegreenlifeeco.com

Scott, what was your thesis on?
green tampons!
Baby and kids shampoo for my two girls!
A Hybrid Car..Prius or Honda Civic..eh probably a Prius
Scott’s Thesis was in a MBA Program for Business
I need a phantom power kutoff switch thast;’s attractive, cheap, and efficient.
(a standard power strip is too big and ungainly to leave in the open)
The Green Life currently carries:
1) Green Tampons
2) Baby & kids shampoo
3) Power strips that eliminate energy drain (not much more attractive than a standard strip though). I will keep my eyes open for more attractive ones.
Sorry, no hybrid cars… yet.
Thanks!
Scott
