8 Natural Makeup Buys That You — and the Planet — Will Love

Eco-friendly makeup is better than ever
What It Does for You: As a last-step in many makeup application routines, a setting spray can ensure all of your handiwork stays smudge-free throughout your workday. This spritz uses natural ingredients to help your foundation, blush and everything else remain fresh. Thanks to its formula, you can work out or take a dip in the pool, without worrying about running or fading.

What It Does for the Planet: Every product in Ancient Stones' mineral makeup line is free from additives, fillers, preservatives, scents, chemicals, dyes and talc. With all natural ingredients, the earth gets a break from the traditional processes used to create makeup. The brand helps more than the planet too: as a woman-owned business, it donates 10 percent of earnings to local communities.

What It Does for You: If your go-to style of makeup is #wokeuplikethis, you'll appreciate the natural properties of this stunning palette. Warm and welcoming, the tones feature a myriad of colors that compliment most skin tones.

What It Does for the Planet: This brand works to only choose ingredients that are consciously harvested and produced to avoid toxic and allergenic properties. To show its commitment to organic makeup, the brand released a "NO WAY" list that documents more than 1,400 ingredients that are banned in the European Union and 30 that are outlawed in America. Additionally, their product packaging is FSC-certified, meaning they follow responsible practices that protect forests worldwide.

What It Does for You: Going out for the night and want to channel Cleopatra or, ahem, Kim Kardashian? Whichever icon serves as your muse, the right liquid eyeliner can make all the difference on a streaky or a sophisticated finished look. With uncomplicated ingredients — like aloe vera, organic glycerin and black tea leaf — you'll be impressed by how smoothly this $29 natural option goes on your lid.

What It Does for the Planet: In addition to only using organic ingredients, Inika follows sustainable standards throughout the creation of its products. It chooses natural and organically-certified products to clean, disinfect and sanitize this eyeliner — and all other products in its line. And because the derived ingredients degrade in nature rapidly, natural cosmetics help to reduce the pollution of water bodies and the environment.
