I am switching over to chemical-free, paraben-free, petroleum-free etc products .... so lipstick, mascarer, eyeshadow, eyeliner, all those common ones!!
I don't wear makeup often, only somewhere special so on average.... once every 6weeks? Probably even less!
My local health store sells a brand 'ere Perez' looks good and reasonably priced!
Can you recommend any you use?
I am tired of make up products full of crap like petrol & paint ingredients :( this is my face!!!
Oh, I want to know too!
I use the Sukin products for cleanser, moisturiser, etc. But I have no idea about what natural make-ups are good and it could be expensive trying them all out!! I would like to switch too. And I wonder if they're as good as the regular stuff.
Hopefully someone has an answer for us!
Aesop for skin care. MAC has a mineral range...
I use Bella Pierre (mineral makeup) and I love them! I highly recommend them! I never, EVER thought I'd get sucked into getting a makeover at one of those stands at my local shopping centre but I'm glad I did. I've never looked back :D
There's a uk makeup artist named Lisa Eldridge, she has her own website and YouTube channel.
On her website if you search for "natural" it's about the 4th or 5th video down from memory, called natural/organic makeup I think.
Not sure if the brands are avalible here though, but worth a look. She's very good!
I don't use them but my gf uses Jane Iredale and says it's fantastic!
Thanks girls, will check those ones out!!
Went through my make up case today..... it's bad some of those ingredients :( I have thrown out a few things today.... I hardly used them anyway!!!
I use Miessence. I was using Youngblood, but their stuff contains bismuth, which is not good at all. I use organic coconut oil for moisturiser and cleanser.
I bought Ere Perez which I found at my local health store and I love it!! It goes on so nicely and I love the lipstick colour I bought!!! And it doesn't taste like normal lipsticks with all the crap in it, you can tell the difference!!
Expensive but well worth it I think!! they are well hidden from my curious 3yo too!!
Check out Sarah Wilson's blog. Lots if information and suggestions.
I just got some organic rosehip oil to use instead of moisturiser and its great!
I'm about to give the Nude by Nature range a try, so I'll let you know how they go.
I love makeup! Rarely wear it but i have super sensitive skin so only ever use organic stuff. I just like playing with it!
In my collection:
Ere Perez is great - love the rosehip lip bars! Frequently have package deals.
Miessence lovely and smooth but limited range. All certified organic... you could eat the stuff! First ever liquid foundation that didn't make me break out or feel like I wanted to scratch my face off.
Adorn has a great range and heaps of things available as testers. The eyeliners are sooooo smooth. Also have cream eyeshadows which are hard to come by in organic ranges.
Coleur Caramel is a French brand with a huge range. I have an eyebrow pencil and a mineral highlighter which I would happily recommend.
Remember to check the ccf.org.au list for the company's cruelty free record, or check their stuff is certified organic and then it's also cruelty free.
I carry Nude by Nature mineral foundations in my makeup kit for clients, and use it myself. Highly recommend - it's one of the few that doesn't have nasty fillers like talc, and allergy-causing bismuth. Basically the fewer ingredients, the better.
Korres also has lovely products. Can be a bit on the exxy side but so nice. I love their primer, blush and lipsticks.
I love the nude by nature!
Feels like I'm wearing nothing at all, great coverage and staying power!

Inika is a great nasty-free makeup range. I think it's Australian. RMS Beauty is a good one too, but pricey.
I use 100% pure, which I have been really happy with!
Excuse my sucky spelling, I'm on my iPhone
Dr. Hauschka also do makeup - I've not tried anything but I love their skincare.
