Is organic foundation better for the skin?

Without preservatives , oil free from petrochemicals, fragrance free, organic foundation contains only vegetable oils , mineral pigments and water. It therefore has a more careful dimension than a classic foundation, but it is less spectacular ! No need to hope for an aerial texture or a second skin effect ... Nevertheless, it ensures a maximum side brightness thanks to mica, a nacre that hangs light.

Our verdict: the addicted to the foundation magician will not necessarily find their account, but those who want a natural finish will be seduced.

A real organic lipstick, does it exist?

It is above all a colored balm packed with waxes, butters and vegetable oils. A real refreshing cocktail. For long-lasting, you will have to wait because the certified lipstick and gloss are formulated without polybuten or silicone , two ingredients that usually give the effect sticky and persistent. On the color side, only the very bright red can not yet be obtained because it involves the death of a cochineal, an insect secreting a carmine pigment. Totally forbidden by Ecocert! Tempted? Find our selection of organic lipsticks!

Our verdict: less sophisticated, certainly, but really comfortable.

What can I expect from an organic mascara?

Since it contains no silicone or synthetic molecules , the doubling of the eyelashes volume and the waterproof effect remain inaccessible with an organic mascara. On the other hand, thanks to waxes and vegetable butters (karite, cocoa, honey, carnuba wax), this type of mascara has real moisturizing and protective properties , especially when the eyelashes tend to fall.

Our verdict : the "eye of the doe" effect is less impressive, but also less fixed. At the end of the day, the eyelashes are still bright and perfectly separated. An organic makeup product to test!

And bios eyeshadows?

Their pigments are exclusively of natural origin (mineral, vegetable or metallic). On the moisturizing side, vegetable oils are used , which also makes it possible to find organic creams in the radius. But for stretch effects and stretch colors at will, we will go back.

Our verdict: they are still quite difficult to work with the finger ... For this part of the organic makeup, we pass our turn.
