Natural and Organic Makeup for Earth Day


Every year Earth Day is the one day out of the year we are able to reflect on our impact on Earth and make a conscious effort to reduce, reuse and recycle. And who says that we should leave out our makeup routines? Below are five different products that are all 100 percent organic for a gorgeous Earth Day look that will leave your conscious, as well as your skin, clear.


Concealer: Begin by applying an organic concealer under the eyes and on any blemishes or redness around the face. Afterglow’s Organic Aloe Infused Concealer ($28) comes in four different shades and blends seamlessly into the skin. For a natural look, this concealer can also double as a light foundation. Blend a little bit of it with your facial moisturizer, and it can act as a tinted moisturizer.

Foundation: For more coverage, use a foundation with full coverage and a satin finish. 100% Pure’s Healthy Skin Foundation ($32) contains super fruits as well as being 100 percent natural, vegan and gluten free. Blend the foundation on with a stippling brush for a flawless finish.

Blush and Highlighter: Finish off the face with a highlighter instead of a powder blush. Juice Beauty’s Irresistible Glow Facial Highlighter ($22) will give a slight flush of color to the cheeks as well as hydrate and highlight the cheekbone.

Lip Gloss: Complete the look with a natural pink colored lip gloss. Bare Minerals 100% Natural Lip Gloss ($15) is 100 percent natural and preservative free while retaining high color payoff and lasting hydration.

Mascara: Keep the eye look as basic and natural as possible with a few coats of mascara. Physicians Formula 100% Natural Lash Boosting Mascara ($10) will lengthen lashes without drying or flaking. If you need more definition, take an angled eyeliner brush and use your mascara as a gel liner. Wing out the product on the edges of the eyes for a beautiful cat-eye look.

This Earth Day, which is April 22nd, keep your makeup look natural and 100 percent organic. With this routine you will be sure to look as fresh-faced as Mother Nature herself! In the rest of your daily routine, be sure to recycle as well as use a reusable water bottle instead of plastic, and be sure to give back to the Earth in some way!
