Hi. I was having the same problem. After my research, I found these brands that are hypoallergenic:

Tower28

Kosas

Clinique

Bare Minerals

Tarte

Young Blood

DermaBlend

Bite Beauty

Jane Iredale 

Marcelle

ColorScience 

Veil Cosmetics 

PYT Beauty 

Thrive Cosmetics

physicians Formula 

Wander Beauty 

Glo Skin Beauty 

VMW Hypoallergenics

Neutrogena

Almay

Mineral Fusion

MOB Beauty

I had to buy all new makeup if I’m going to be wearing it all day at work because I’m older over 40 now and my skin is so sensitive to everything and gets red easily if I scrub it to hard so I don’t use makeup wipes anymore. I’ve moved over to makeup remover balm. And because I don’t feel like spending the money right now at Sephora because I consider myself a Sephora addict, I have been buying and using Almay makeup which has been great especially the eye makeup does not make my eyes irritated or their new skin tone matching makeup I alive and I don’t have anymore redness on my face. I recommend the purple mascara tube too because it doesn’t make my eyes water. I use their eyeliner, primer and makeup remover pads oil free that come in a little round container. But believe me I still have bought and loved Tower28, Tarte, Clinique, Koas, Bite Beauty etc. my favorite foundation is the NARS one that I save to use on the weekends.

@m4rimba  The drugstore brands Marcelle, Annabelle, No. 7, and Physicians Formula, are partly or completely hypoallergenic. I recommend reading the product information to confirm before purchase. Shoppers Drug Mart has a section that's sort of like a Sephora store, so they have the best range of hypoallergenic makeup (compared to London Drugs, say). This is in Canada, please note.

Interestingly, Shoppers Drug Mart has a number of bareMinerals products that are listed as hypoallergenic, but I'm not seeing that phrase listed in the Sephora information. The product name isn't identical, either. For instance, Shoppers has barePRO® Performance Wear Pressed Powder Foundation whereas Sephora has BAREPRO 16-HR Skin-Perfecting Powder Foundation. It may be that Shoppers is carrying the drugstore line of bareMinerals, and Sephora has the higher end line. Nonetheless, bareMinerals is a reputable brand, so I'd likely start there.

Sad to say, the only hypoallergenic products I found on Sephora Canada were for a Briogeo shampoo and conditioner. But if you want the Sephora experience, I'd suggest trying some of the Clean at Sephora makeup brands.

Hope this helps. Good luck!
