The application of makeup is becoming more and more popular in recent years, and as a result many new makeup brands have emerged.

But do you often stop to think about what exactly you are putting on your skin and the environmental impact your makeup has?

Makeup and skincare brands often contain dangerous chemicals and have no regard for their environmental footprint. That's why I like to support companies like Elate, Inika or Dirty Hippie Cosmetics, who use all natural, vegan, cruelty free ingredients in their formulas. Not only that, but Elate and Dirty Hippie Cosmetics use re-usable packaging made from natural materials such as bamboo or glass allowing you to re-fill your make up product without having to purchase a brand new container!

So make the Earth feel a bit more beautiful next time you go makeup shopping, and choose something that has little to no impact on the environment
