Check out Tarte blush, it’s my favorite!

Elate, thrive, rms, Kjaer Weiss, well people, honest beauty, salt New York, clove and hallow, ilia, Pacifica, nabla, ofra

Lipstick: axiology

Detox market website is a good place for samples. The well people mascara works really well for me.

Great clean youtuber: Kackie loves beauty (her voice can be kinda annoying at first tho lol)

I’ve been researching clean beauty a lot so lmk if you have any questions

Pacifica is a wonderful natural based makeup and skincare line - not sure if it’s organic though.

I like the tower 28 gloss and products from 100% pure. I do find that many clean beauty products expire alot faster because they have less preservatives.

The articles I read about this topic yesterday told me this: fluorine was found in products advertised as : :long wearing": liquid lipsticks, foundations, waterproof mascaras, etc.

What that told me is ok, this scary ingredient would probably not be in many of my makeup products since I do not wear things advertised as longwearing/ with high staying power.

*Note: I am not a scientist this was just my interpretation based on a few articles I read.

Dime mascara is great and free from harsh chemicals #nontoxicmakeupe

They had lots of natural make up in the 19th century full of arsenic lead mercury all natural. So consider definitions.

I work in drug and cosmetics manufacturing, and a lot with organic cosmetics, since it’s the motto of the brand I’m working for … honestly, it’s a “little” better in terms of manufacturing for the environment and such, like using less harmful detergent ( but we end up using more water to clean… so is it worth it ?). As a professional it’s really conflicting me, but it’s more eco-friendly than anything else. As for efficiency, it’s more of trying to replace the synthetic stuff with organic ones but it’s never really a success (for instance, aloe water is considered organic when it’s aloe powder restructured with water cause water is consider a natural product)…

I think there's a major difference between organic and natural (at least in Europe). There are labels for organic with very precise criteria and independent verifications. So if you have an organic label there is probably at least some sort of guarantee behind it. Obviously it's not perfect, and zero impact doesn't exist, but the claims have to be substantiated. On the other hand, "natural" has no legal definition and no precise criteria, ie a marketing claim.

Another thing that I noticed about organic brands is that they tend to have far less inclusive shade ranges. Most of them have 5 shades of foundation max. They can also have more natural formulas that, because they contain less preservatives, expire faster. Some organic products even contain ingredients like essential oils that some people are allergic or have a sensitivity to. Obviously, there are different brands and not all of them do the same products, but there are definitely upsides and downsides.

As someone who's on a low-buy, I think that the main issue is over-consumption rather than non-organic products. What I mean is that owning one foundation or one eyeshadow palette from a conventional brand does entail environmental impact, but what is even worse is having 20 foundations, or a full drawer of eyeshadow palettes.

So the "right choice" is definitely a mix of educating ourselves on environmental and social concerns, and making more conscientious choices about our purchases :)

Daughter earth concealer is very good. I don't like makeup that's too visible on the skin. It's expensive but a little goes a long way and the finish is good and it doesn't wear off even though I sweat a lot. The shade range is limited though. I had to buy two and blend to get my skintone.

I've been using various products from Just Herbs since 2020. I love their eyeshadow palette. My recent favourites have been a red matte lipstick and mascara that comes in 2 styles.

The only thing I do not like about the brand is their insistent calling to get reviews. I've confused "JustHerbs" with "JustDial" and even asked them not to bother me lmao. I mean yes I do buy from them every 4-5 months (1149 deal is good and I restock my shampoo) and as a previous small store owner I understand the need for reviews but I can't leave a review very so often for the same product.

Paraben is a preservative it's necessary for products to have a decent shelf life. It's just demonised by some brands to sell their paraben free product range in the market, which is very gimmicky.

Replied on your other post too but will drop the link here too. Please check out this page , it checks out all your concerns.

Girl, it's ok, you aren't a pick me but you're definitely brainwashed and should read more (science/chemistry more specifically and also about green washing since you said you're leaning towards sustainability). But since you're hung up on the "labels", I suggest you check juicy chemistry's makeup line. Heard they perform well.

You should be more worried about heavy metal contamination than the so-called "non-organic and chemical". Please only buy from reputed brands.

Body Deli (cleansers, scrubs, day/night moisturizer are good, not fan of serums) Not sure how organic but I love: Helan Naturals (only tried the Ginkgo Biloba, Blackberry, and Butcher's Broom Ointment - this will make your face so soft) Jurlique (moisture replenishing cream-cult fav for a reason) Chidoriya (hinoki water-smells like dill just fyi- and rose cream, which smells nice) Fitglow Beauty (lots of good stuff)

Tata Harper is AMAZING. I’ve tried a good 70% of their products so if you have any questions let me know.

Someone mentioned Eminence, but personally I found Eminence products really meh and the textures can be super weird… Definitely recommend testing in person if you can and getting trial/travel sizes before full sizes!

Love the Odacité blue balm and have heard good things about their other products but I can’t vouch.

Haven’t tried Kypris but it looks super appealing.

Agent Nateur has great options. Love the Holi Bright mask.

Juice Beauty tends to not get much hype, but they have a lot of lovely products.

LIVING LIBATIONS!!!! BSE Seabuckthorn… Thank me later.

Moon Juice has a few simple and nice products.

Osea makes nice stuff. Haven’t tried but have heard great things.

Pai Skincare. Love the Light Fantastic oil.

Lush! Currently obsessed with the Beauty Sleep mask. Used Angels on Bare Skin and Let the Good Times Roll for a while, Herbalism too. Gorgeous moisturizer is lovely if you want something really nourishing.

Evan Healy is one of my favorite brands - I love the clay masks, and several of the oils and balms. Their moisturizers/HydroSouls didn’t work for me personally.

Eminence Organics - all of their toners and masks are really nice and have made a difference in my skin when I use them.

100% Pure for body lotions and even some makeup like their blush and lip tint.

Banish - made fresh once u order

Tinted eyebrow gel used once and didn't suit me as I think brows. Priced at 350 inc ship. Bought from Amazon, invoice available. DM if interested

Pay attention to the ingredients in each product you use and make sure they all blend together. Water and oils tend to separate unless bound together, so using an oil based concealer, I like to use an oil based moisturizer.

Practice different application techniques, using your fingers, brush, beauty blender etc... as well as all the different blending techniques, blending as you apply, or applying then blending, using different brushes etc... I’ve found that I use different techniques for various products, what works for one brands concealer is not the same for the other (I think this is pretty true for most makeup, but for me it’s especially true for organic)

Most makeup I’ve used needs to be warmed up first. Just rub it on your wrist or hand.

Skincare is most important, invest in the base products, cleansers, toners, moisturizers etc... if your skin is at its upmost best, your makeup will apply fabulously (again true for most makeup, but with organic makeup being so light coverage, I’ve found that prepping and caring for the skin is very important)

The Hertiage Store Rosewater and Glycerin face mist.

Don’t freak yourself out so much trying to make sure everything is perfectly organic etc... taking care of your skin, using appropriate to you organic skincare, washing your makeup off everyday, can go along way in keeping your skin healthy, using a good organic base/primer can help to protect your skin and then you can use products that work that may not be all organic. Just don’t use products with ingredients that are your absolute no’s.

Benetint!! Get the mini size, and start with just a little bit if you're on the pale side, since it builds up. But I love it, and find it to be the most long lasting out there.

I like the Burt’s Bees tinted lip balms!

Etude House Dear Darling Water Gel Tint PK003 is my secret weapon

it's kind of a dusty, slightly mauvish-pink

gives me that naturally rosy lips look, and is wonderful as a natural blush as well

Romand! They are comfortable, and come in a variety of shades / finishes. Specifically I love Glasting Waters and Juicy Lasting Tint, but lots of people love the Velvet tints for a matte finish. If you're state side, I recommend buying on YesStyle. Tons of swatches on /r/AsianBeauty too.

Hear me out…Nivea tinted lip balm that you buy at a drugstore. I think it’s better than Burt’s bees and affordable so you can grab a few!
