I use Logona lip-pencils and tick crayons, eye-liner pencil and they also have blush, no chemicals, no animal testing etc. Dr. Hauschka is another brand good brand, but in the US quite pricey. If you have a whole foods near you, they carry those brands.... if not, you can buy them online, just google them. I use only "natural" cosmetics without coal tar dyes, preservatives etc. Why take a risk? Sure the stuff costs a little more, but one of those lip crayons lasts me for year, they last better than regular lipstick, too.

Almost all make-up contains preservatives and chemicals with the exception perhaps of henna and mineral make-up.

Origins, in both the skincare and make-up is not organic.
Lush skincare needs to be refrigerated and has a short expiry date.

The only thing I have is some Burts Bees lip gloss and that's supposed to be organic but cannot get the eye stuff anywhere around here. Foundation I don't wear much anymore. It seems like in this day and age, it would be simpler to find cosmetics without all the crap with it.

I use Ecco Bella Natural Skin Care, Natural Beauty Products | Ecco Bella and Burt's Bees.
I think most of the mineral makeups (at least the high quality brands) are organic or all natural.

You can find burts bees at CVS, Target or order it online at drugstore dot com. My CVS carries a huge selection of their cosmetics.

i use bare minerals and its the best make up Ive EVER used! I love it! you can get it I think at any known department store such as Macys or Nordstrom as well as Sephora or Ulta

Sephora has a great Organic & Natural makeup/skincare selection. I recommend going to to the retail store if you can and try the products to see if you like them. Sephora's my one-stop shop for (most) all my cosmetic needs. Check out their website: Fragrance, Cosmetics & the Finest Facial Skin Care Product Selection at Sephora.com

I like Boscia and Korres skincare, and Bare Escentuals for foundation (I definitely went to the store to get the color matched to my skin before buying). Tarte has great cheek stains and bronzers. L'Occitane has amazing soaps and shea creams too.

For hair I love Phyto (especially Phytojojoba). Also recently tried Lush (http://usa.lush.com/cgi-bin/lushdb/i...en_US&dlang=en) and really like their shampoo bars (great for travel!).

I use Bare Escentuals. Took some practice but I love them, all minerals.

I use Aveda skin care products which are all natural and Bare Escentuals mineral makeup.
The selection of eye makeup colors is absolutely fantastic with Bare Escentuals - it's not cheap, but it is good.
