Happy Friday! This week for Friday favorites we are sharing our favorite foundations that we use!!
With Christmas coming up, makeup could be a great gift idea for a family member or friend. A lot of different makeup brands do sales around the holidays, making it a great time to buy something special for a loved one or yourself.
A tip with makeup is to try to buy non-toxic when you can, especially things like foundation, moisturizers, and powders that sit on your face all day. Lots of makeup items contain hidden ingredients and chemicals that can disrupt our hormones and exacerbate symptoms of common conditions like PCOS, acne, thyroid disorders, and more.
We love brands like Beautycounter and Crunchi, that only sell non-toxic makeup brands, so you know that what you’re putting on is not only good for your skin but also good for the rest of your body.
Here is the link to Beautycounter’s never list, which lists common ingredients in makeup products to try and avoid: https://www.beautycounter.com/the-never-list.
Another good way to check if a makeup product is non-toxic is to use EWG’s database: https://www.ewg.org/skindeep/. You can search brands and products and they will rank the product based on its ingredients.
