Allergies to makeup

[Anonymous]

So I’m allergic to certain types of makeup, what do you recommend for sensitive/allergy skin? Any brands?

Hi, @Anonymous ! I also have very sensitive skin and allergies to certain brands of makeup. Obviously you should always check the ingredients before purchasing any product, but I do have a couple recommendations. Ilia Beauty is a really good brand because their products are free of so many allergens and they're cruelty free if that's a dealbreaker for you. Also, rms beauty is a really good brand because their ingredients are very naturally derived. For more mainstream brands (all of these are available at Sephora, though), tarte is an amazing option! A lot of their products are mineral derived, so it's way more adaptable for sensitive skin. Weirdly, a lot of eyebrow products break my eyebrows out (ik weird), but the Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Powder Duo is my holy grail! It's so good, and basically takes the place of eyebrow pencil in my routine.

I hope this helps!!
