It’s common knowledge that makeup isn’t the best remedy for the wellbeing of your skin. Makeup riddled with synthetic fragrances, added oils, and harsh pigments can lead to clogged pores, oily T-zones, and unwanted breakouts. But before you toss the contents of your makeup bag into the trash bin, we’ve compiled a list of all-natural makeup brands that value the quality of your skin as well as the quality of your makeup!
Josie Maran Cosmetics takes au naturale to a whole new level where the protection and nourishment of your skin comes first. The star ingredient in most Josie Maran products is Argan oil, an oil extracted from the seed that grows on an Argan tree in Morocco, which provides vitamin E and essential fatty acids that help make skin smooth and supple. All Josie Maran products are entirely all-natural, eco-friendly, and ensured to improve the quality of your skin.
BareMinerals wins the prize for reigning natural beauty. This brand produces high-quality pure mineral makeup that adds luminosity and warmth to your skin while still allowing it to breathe beneath its smooth, lightweight makeup. BareMinerals takes all expectations for mineral makeup and turns them on their heads because their silky loose foundations and pigmented powder blushes will leave your skin refreshed, hydrated, and looking better than ever.
If you’re searching for makeup a little closer to home (say, the drugstore around the corner, maybe?), Physicians Formula has got you covered. This glamorous brand provides products that are both trendy and healthy for even the most sensitive of skin. Its eco-friendly formulas bring out the even glow within your skin and turn wearing makeup into a benefactor for your skin’s radiance. Physicians Formula have a wide array of products that will not only boost the beauty of your skin, but also look appealing in your makeup bag, as the cute, innovative packaging for these products is to die for!
