Earth Day 2012, Sensible Six Beauty Products: Makeup


This slideshow shows my top six favorite makeup products that are considered sensible for Earth Day. Some of them are natural and some of them are eco-friendly, but all of them are just plain smart. Click through the photographs to see each product and learn more about them!

If you've got sensitive eyes, or you wear contact lenses, there is hope for you! Physician's Formula Organic Wear Lash Boosting Mascara is 100% free of harsh chemicals, synthetic preservatives, dyes, and parabens. It also happens to be 100% cruelty-free.

This mascara is the perfect example of a product where you don't need to sacrifice big lashes for natural ingredients. The large mascara wand enhances your eyelashes, making them look thicker and longer, without damaging them.

<u><strong><center>The All-in-One Concealer: Miracle Skin Transformer</u></strong></center>

The All-in-One Concealer: Miracle Skin Transformer



The Miracle Skin Transformer is a treat and conceal product for your skin that includes natural plant complex and loads of antioxidants for your skin. You can treat, cover, and correct, all at the same time!

The Miracle Skin Transformer comes in shades from light to dark, as well as translucent. It glides over your skin like a concealer, only it feels extremely lightweight. The product covers dark circles, and any pigmentation spots you may have. It feels super smooth when you apply it, and treats your skin concerns while correcting them!

The Natural Flush: Tarte Cosmetics Natural Cheek Stain



Tarte Cosmetics is an overall amazing brand to check out if you love natural cosmetic products. They also happen to be the queen of cheek stains. Their cheek stains are formulated without any parabens, preservatives, mineral oil, and fragrance. Oh, and on top of that, they have a ton of antioxidants in them, making them like a vitamin cocktail for your cheeks!

My particular Tarte Cheek Stain came in a makeup kit, so it is smaller than the full-sized product. The color is rich and luxurious, but also sheer enough to blend out beautifully. A light shimmer ensures that the light will hit your cheeks just right. This is also a wonderful multi-use product that can be used for your lips as well!

<u><strong><center>The International Lip Balm: The Body Shop Satsuma Shimmer Born Lippy</u></strong></center>

The International Lip Balm: The Body Shop Satsuma Shimmer Born Lippy



The Body Shop supports community fair trade, which means they receive the ingredients to make their products from various regions with humane practices. The Satsuma Shimmer Born Lippy contains beeswax from Zambia, Africa, which is completely organic and plays a part in protecting and preserving the forest, as well as providing an income for the beekeepers.

This particular lip balm has a hint of shimmer and a splash of zest from natural orange and satsuma oils. Not only will this keep your lips incredibly moisturized, you can feel good knowing that you are supporting fair trade practices, as well as the preservation of fine, exotic, natural ingredients internationally.

<u><strong><center>The Shadow/Liner Made of Clay: Tarte Cosmetics emphasEYES Waterproof Clay Shadow/Liner</u></strong></center>

The Shadow/Liner Made of Clay: Tarte Cosmetics emphasEYES Waterproof Clay Shadow/Liner



Tarte's emphasEYES Clay Shadow/Liner is a multi-tasking product that won't budge, even under water. It comes in a variety of colors to suit your preferences, and the product is made from all-natural clay.

I chose to go with "Bronze," which is a dark bronze with a hint of golden shimmer. This product can be used as an all-over wash on the eyelid, a crease color, or as an eyeliner. The all-natural clay formula will stay put until you take it off with makeup remover, making it perfect for the hot and humid months ahead.

<u><strong><center>The Foundation Made of Fruit: 100% Pure Fruit Pigmented Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20</u></strong></center>

The Foundation Made of Fruit: 100% Pure Fruit Pigmented Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20



100% Pure Fruit Pigmented Tinted Moisturizer is 100% vegan and natural, and made from fruit! How cool is that? The ingredient list contains peach, apricot, carrot, pomegranate, rosemary, oregano, and more! The pump application allows you to dispense an exact amount of product, as well, which I love.

<u><strong><center>100% Pure Fruit Pigmented Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20</u></strong></center>

100% Pure Fruit Pigmented Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20



Since this product is a tinted moisturizer, you will be getting more sheer, light coverage. It glides over the skin beautifully while still protecting from the harmful rays of the sun with SPF 20. It is available in different skin shades to suit your complexion, as well.
