Elixir Wellness: Lusciously Natural Lipsticks.

Pukka up ladies because this Wellness Wednesday we’re sharing with you our favourite NATURAL lipsticks we have in store. We are a proud stockist of Jane Iredale mineral make up, which is a beautiful cosmetic range including all the essentials as well as brightly pigmented ranges of lipsticks and eye shadows. All of Jane Iredale products are cruelty free and packed with nourishing, skin loving ingredients.

We are all about eating healthy on the inside, which is fantastic, but it is just as important to consider what we put on the outside too. The products which you are using on your skin may not be as ‘natural’ as you think. Always read the label, packaging can be extremely misleading. The upsetting thing is that most packaging bombarded with words such as ‘herbal’ and ‘natural’, but probably only contain 0.01% of a natural ingredient!

Reasons your beloved lipstick may be more harmful than you think…

• Contains heavy metals, such as lead.

• Made with Parabens, such as Propylparaben and Methylparaben which are preservatives used in many beauty products. They cause reactions, disrupt hormones and are even linked to cancer.

• Millions of women and young girls are ingesting lots of toxic and synthetic chemicals every single day.

• They could be tested on animals.

We love that we have so many health minded customers, who exercise, eat well and look after themselves. However, some of which come to us seeking new skincare as they still struggle with problematic skin. Or, they are aware of dangerous make up and come to us to seek a natural option. It is so so important to also use the purest and most natural products you can find for your skin. Your skin is extremely porous, meaning it will soak up anything like a sponge, believe you me we do not want to be soaking up any harmful chemicals! If you are a regular lipstick lover and find yourself re applying thrught out the day, remember that when you eat, drink and lick your lips you are ingesting your lipstick! We couldn't think of anything more scary than nasty chemicals going into our gut, this is why we feel it is a priority to seek a natural lipstick. Jane Iredale’s ethos is that they wouldn’t put anything on their skin that they couldn’t eat! If you saw our last Foodie Friday post, we decorated our Valentine's chocolates with a sprinkle of Jane Iredale 24-Karat rose gold dust!
