Clean Foundation for Your Skin

Finding a good foundation and concealer is like finding a perfect pair of jeans; it needs to suit your taste, fit your skin well, and be comfortable to wear. Knowing about all the nasty chemicals and toxins found in makeup, and how preservatives and colorings like PEG and PPG, it makes sense to find products that have as little as these ingredients as possible.

Take Home Tips and Hints

• Ingredients are listed in the order of most to least in the product, so the first ingredient has the highest concentration and the last ingredient has the least concentration
• “May contain” basically means, the product was made in a facility with other ingredients, and even though they did not at the “may contain” ingredients to their product formula, there might be contamination from when another product was made
• Be prepared to try a few different lines before finding the right one for you
• Note that many lines claim to be natural and use same chemicals, but read the ingredient list yourself first! 
• You don’t need a foundation with a sunscreen; if it is an SPF of 30 or less, it is pretty much useless as a sunscreen. You should always use a higher SPF and apply if before you apply your foundation
