Make up with no nasties in!

I am gradually switching all my beauty products to those which don't contain nasties and it's now the turn of my make-up bag to be sorted out!

I'm sure this has been done before but can anyone recommend a good organic, natural range?

I usually go for a "natural" look so am not bothered about huge ranges of colours, but would like something that won't slide off my face half way through the day!

  • hi WSOM,

    I'm in a similar situation: I've started with Lily Lolo. I use their mineral foundation & eyeshadows. It took a bit of time to get used to but now I am a convert. I'm looking for a good mascara now. I tried Beauty Without Cruelty mascara but either I got a dud one or it is pretty rubbish.

  • Thanks Marrowgirl! Mascara is my one can't-live-without make up item so I'll be interested to know if you find a good one.

    Off to have a look at Lily Lolo now......

    Oooh, this is an interesting thread. I'm also looking for no nasties make up (and skincare). I'm trying to use up my 'nasty' stuff first before I go buying anymore stuff though. Having said that I've been looking at Tarte (which I'm not sure if it's available over here, but it's on the Sephora website) and rms beauty (again not sure if you can get it over here, but hoping soon both brands and more will be available over here too!).

    I've also been keeping my eye on Bare escentuals, Korres and Josie Maran aswell as Une at Boots.

    Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending
