I was looking back through my posts and I see that I write about mineral makeup a lot. A whole lot. Ladies, there is more to eco-friendly, good-for-you-beauty, than mineral makeup. Here are a few options that I found at Sephora…
Tarte Smooth Operator SPF 20
$35
Smooth Operator is an oil-free foundation that gives a light to medium coverage. It has a light feel on your skin, “…”water-in-silicone” formula blends into your skin as easily as a moisturizer…” It’s formulated without Sulfates, Synthetic Fragrances, Synthetic Dyes, Petro-Chemicals, or Phthalates. It is made with antioxidant ingredients like Vitamin A, C, or E.

Korres Wild Rose Foundation
$28
This is a brightening foundation, so it’s a good choice for someone whose skin is beginning to show some signs of aging. The coverage is long-lasting and it has an SPF of 20. It’s made with Vitamin C and Wild Rose extract. Wild Rose extract has been proven to brighten skin tone, repair fine lines and wrinkles. It’s moisturizing, but oil-free. It’s made without Parabens, Sulfates, Mineral Oils, Petro-Chemicals, Propylene Glycols, Ethanolomines, or GMOs. This foundation is also helpful for post-acne problems.
NVEY Organic Moisturizing Fluid Foundation
$45
This foundation is both moisturizing and “aromatic.” It’s been certified organic by OFC Australia and the Australian government. It’s lightweight and the coverage is sheer. It’s breathable, so it’s a great choice for someone who has oily or acne-prone skin. Some of the ingredients include chamomile, cucumber, calendula, and rose absolute.
