Whether you’re looking for a lifestyle change, on a health kick or pregnant, making the switch to natural makeup has never been easier. 

Natural makeup used to pale in comparison to more traditional makeup products, they’ve seriously come a long way. More and more innovative makeup brands are creating products that are richly pigmented, apply/wear beautifully, and have an ingredients list that you can count on one hand.  

While natural makeup products have come so far, it’s worth mentioning that just because they’re ‘natural’ doesn’t automatically mean they’re better or safer for you. Sometimes it can be used purely as a marketing term so be sure to do your research first. It also doesn’t mean that you won’t have an adverse or allergic reaction to it, so it’s important to always do a test patch first. 

Ahead are six natural makeup brands leading the charge, plus some of our favourite products.
