OK...so you totally know how obsessed we are with makeup and skin care so it should probably not be a surprise that when we find a great natural line of makeup we go totally coo-coo for coco puffs!
There are soooo many crappy chemicals and weird additives in makeup now it's creeepy. Things we never knew could hurt us...and because it just goes on our skin and not inside, we think it's totally fine...but think again.
Our skin absorbs all of those gross chemicals and could cause allergic reactions or worse!
So after doing a few tests (oh! you are totally welcome! it was our pleasure...anytime!!!) here are our 3 favorite and most consumer friendly lines.
Jane Iredale (never heard of her? yeah it can be a wee bit tricky to find...after all it's not in Sephora ;) ) has been creating stunning cosmetics the mineral way for years! Her all natural mineral cosmetics are sooo beautiful and refined you will look like you just got a professional airbrushing from a fashion magazine!
We are obsessed with her liquid eye shadow...it's like spreading silk across you lids.
And it doesn't crease or get that weird oily smudge to it!
