The Highlight

Unlike many highlighters, Living Luminizer is sheer without glitter, making it wearable for day or night. Living Luminizer is perfect for achieving a dewy complexion. Apply to cheekbones, brow bone, eyelids, cupid’s bow, and center of the lips or anywhere you want the light to reflect.

Eyeshadow

Swift Shadows are pressed, not heated, and therefore retain minerals that are good for the skin. Formulated without talc, typically the first ingredient found in eyeshadow, and the appearance is never chalky. Buriti oil and jojoba oil keep lids form drying out.

Baby Wipes

A lot of baby wipes smell fresh and seem gentle, but with continued use, irritation and diaper rashes occur. This could be due to irritating and/or toxic ingredients found in the wipes.

Body Butter

Oy-l Body Butter is a super hydrating, rich body lotion that is perfect for legs and body post shower.

 Oy-l avoids commonly used harmful ingredients and sticks to a purposeful formula.

All Purpose Spray

Non-toxic and fragrance free, Branch Basics All Purpose is an effective cleaner that is safe to use on all surfaces, even marble. While many household cleaners require open doors and windows for ventilation, Branch Basics is free of harmful volatile organic compounds and harsh fumes. Branch Basics All Purpose does not contain antibacterial agents such as triclosan, triclocarban, benzalkonium chloride, benzethonium chloride, and choloryxlenol.

Brow Gel

W3ll People Expressionist Brow Gel is made w/ non-toxic ingredients & enhances brows seamlessly for a natural look. Small spooled applicator allows you to brush, fill in gaps, & add color in one quick step. Gel-like formula does not stiffen or flake off. Smudge proof. 3 shades: blonde, brown, dark brown w/ good pigment. Aloe leaf juice, shea butter, coconut oil & sunflower seed oil. EWG verified.

Foundation

Many natural foundations either lack coverage, appear caked on, look too flat and matte or too oily and shiny. True skin surpasses expectations for a non-toxic foundation and is more enjoyable to wear than conventional coveted foundations.

Kids' Pajamas

Under US law, kids' pajamas from 9 months to size 14 must be flame resistant or tight fitting, both subject to specific standards. Manufacturers treat fabrics with flame retardants or use synthetic fabric that is flame resistant. Flame resistant chemicals include halogenated hydrocarbons, inorganic flame retardants, and phosphate based compounds. These chemicals are dangerous and linked to nervous system damage, reproductive system damage, hormone disruption, and deficits in motor skills, attention, and IQ in children. 100% cotton snug-fitting pajamas are best for safety and comfort. The big yellow tags clearly state whether pajamas are snug fitting or chemically treated - so be sure to read those carefully.

Eyeliner

Non toxic eyeliner is high on the priority list since it often gets into your eyes. Finding a natural liquid eyeliner with enough pigment and staying power is a challenge. Many eyeliners get their deep black pigment from unsafe ingredients like carbon black or D&C Black #2. Carbon black is color made from the incomplete combustion of hydrocarbons. It is toxic, possibly carcinogenic, and the FDA has even found carbon black unsafe for cosmetics used around the eyes. Instead of using harmful dyes, Expressionist uses natural iron oxides as a colorant.

Laundry Stain Remover

Conventional stain removers often contain toxic ingredients like bleach that are irritating to eyes, skin, and the respiratory system. Branch Basics is bleach-free effectively removes stains and uses only non-toxic ingredients. Oxygen boost intensifies cleaning, and when combined with All Purpose Spray, the combination works magic on stains. Oxygen boost is also great for brightening whites.

Makeup Brush Wash

Cleaning makeup brushes is one of the most overlooked but important steps in skincare and should be done at least monthly. I know, one more thing to do, but your makeup will go on better and skin will be cleaner and clearer. It takes three minutes and is so worth it. I clean my brushes at night before bed, and they are dry and ready to use by morning.
