With a push in our world to produce products that are clean and non-toxic, more and more people are wanting to know that what they put on their skin is safe to use. Not only do consumers want products to be safe to use on their skin, but they also are concerned about the sustainability aspect to conserve our environment. That’s where green cosmetics come into play. Meaning, the makeup you apply to your skin is environmentally friendly and omits harsh chemicals from their formulas.
If you are someone that likes to wear makeup every day to work and don’t look into the products you use, you can very well be exposing yourself to toxic substances on a daily basis that are absorbing into your skin. Hey, I get it though! Don’t get me wrong. Sometimes, products that aren’t labeled or marketed as green, make us look our most fabulous and it’s hard to deter from that. However, it’s nice to try and make a conscious decision little by little. Not only for you but our world as well!
Green Cosmetics
1. Fitglow Beauty
What a gorgeous gorgeous brand! Not only are they concerned about being non-toxic on the skin, but their makeup products also contain beneficial skincare ingredients that address issues like dehydration, sun damage, and aging. Lastly, the cool things about this brand is they test their products through daily activities. So things like workouts, varying climates, work life, and just every day normal tasks, you name it they got it covered! Honestly, I believe you would score with any of their products, but you have to try the 2 below.
A. Lip Color Serum
This is an amazing comforting lip serum! You know how usually lip products like lip glosses feel sticky and icky? That’s definitely not the case with this one. It doesn’t have that feeling where you just want to remove it immediately and its smoothing and hydrating at the same time.
B. Conceal +
A high coverage concealer that doesn’t look cakey and lasts all day? Sign me up! Well let’s hope you’re not using half the bottle because that will surely look cakey but I digress. If you are using a normal amount of concealer like a swipe under your eyes and a few dots to cover blemishes on your face, you will look naturally flawless. It doesn’t emphasize your fine lines or texture or even gives a dead give a way that you’re wearing makeup.
2. LYS Beauty
This brand is a beautiful brand that provides luxury quality products at an affordable price. Trust me, your wallet and face will be happy. Every product in the line is under $30 and keeps your skin in mind by helping to care for fine line and wrinkles, blemishes, hyperpigmentation and more! Also, their packaging is sustainable to keep our environment happy.
A. Higher Standard Satin Matte Cream Blush
For all the matte lovers out there, this one is for you. If you wan’t a blush that goes on fuss free without having to blend for what seems like hours, with amazing color payoff and lasts, look no further. It’s arguably better than luxury blushes in the market that cost in the $50 and up range. Che’s kiss to this blush!
B. Aim High Pressed Highlighter Powder
Shine on girl! This is the perfect buildable highlighter. For daily use, you can apply this as a subtle glow, and when you want to be more glam for a girls night out, it can be built up for a for more intense highlight without looking streaky and disco ball like. It’s one you definitely want to get your hands on!
3. Tower28
This brand is geared towards those with sensitive skin but anyone can still use their products. Using non-toxic ingredients is important to them as the found Amy Liu, was frustrated that she was super limited to the brands she was able to use because of her eczema so she created a line that is hypo-allergenic, non-comedogenic, dermatologist tested, and gluten free.
A. Sunny Days SPF 30 Tinted Sunscreen Foundation
OMG. This tinted sunscreen is gorgeous on the skin! It’s not fully matte and dries down with a subtle luminosity. The best part about it is that it’s so undetectable on the skin it looks like your skin is just perfected and you are not wearing any makeup. The fact that it also has that added sun protection is a win win in my book!
B. BeachPlease Luminous Tinted Balm
This tinted balm is simply stunning. If you like dew, this is your gal. You can use this one of two ways. You can use it as a natural flush on your cheeks as a blush, or as a lip product to enhance your natural lip color. However, if you want a bolder look you can definitely build it up to your preference. Either way you will look glowy and youthful!
4. Jones Road
You may recognize the founder of this brand as she was the founder of the major brand Bobbi Brown. She wanted to create a brand that had high quality performance but was also clean and eco-friendly. That’s where Jones Road was born. A brand carrying multi-purpose products that can be both natural looking and a bit more glam.
A. Lip and Cheek Stick
Stick products are probably one of the best things to be invented because they are so easy to use. Not dipping your fingers into the product and easy to travel with. Coming a in a variety of blush tones, dab on your cheeks or lips for a flush of nourishing color. It’s a no brainer!
B. The Face Pencil
This is like your triple threat. The corrector, concealer, and foundation all in one! You can use it to correct your dark under eyes, or other darks spots, conceal blemishes or redness in the skin, or as an all over perfect base that doesn’t crease or settle into fine lines. You’ll look like a youthful natural goddess!
5. Caliray
This brand is all about combining beauty and wellness in their products to create a more natural way of beauty where less makeup is more. The idea is to not spend forever and a day making yourself look pretty, and more time enjoying everything else life haas to offer. Very much of an effortless cali vibe, just like the name suggests.
A. Freedreaming Clean Blurring Skin Tint
I mean talk about effortless, this is probably as effortless as you can get with makeup! It’s so lightweight, it takes less than a minute to apply because it just glides and sinks into your skin like you have nothing on, providing you with light dewy coverage. The look is the epitome of your natural beauty girl next door!
B. Glazed & Infused Lip Plumper Gloss
The perfect lip plumping gloss! It doesn’t have that greasy sticky feeling and it hydrates like a boss. One of the best parts of about it is that it doesn’t gives that tingly feeling you get with other plumping glosses. It just performs quietly to perfection. You’ll be left with plumped lips with a natural non-blinding glossy shine that lasts.
