I entered the cosmetics industry because I wanted more women to use cosmetics made with safe, healthful ingredients.
When in doubt, always opt for going naturel rather than hiding your skin under foundation and such. Line your eyes with kohl and mascara, put on some bright lip gloss and pinch your cheeks a little bit to get them all flushed and bright!
People are so concerned with what they put in their bodies but so few know what they're putting on their skin. I like to use preservative-free, cruelty-free makeup that hasn't been tested on animals.
Until I was a teenager, I used red pokeberries for lipstick and a burnt matchstick for eyeliner. I used honeysuckle for perfume.
I love to use beets as a lip tint. It lasts all day.
I'm a little obsessed with lip balm. When I go to a new place, I'll find the locally made natural lip balms and buy them as my little memento.
While I try to avoid toxic ingredients like parabens, phthalates, and petrochemicals, I like to dig deeper into the contents of these beauty staples.
Try to go organic with not too many chemicals and stuff in it. That's what my mom always told me. She was like, "If you wanna wear makeup or do anything, try to keep it organic."
I really wanted my creams to feel luxurious and have a beautiful finish, and it's harder to do that with natural ingredients.
