Gone are the days when makeup and skin care were two separate categories. Today it’s become normal, if not the standard, for makeup to have skin-loving qualities. If you suspect your makeup to be causing you some skin issues like bumps, dry skin, or chapped lips, perhaps it’s time to change what you’re using. Here are a few best-sellers from Calyxta that don’t just keep you pretty, they’re good for the skin, too!
Can’t get enough of a matte lip? Don’t sacrifice the health of your puckers for that look. Pixi’s latest lipstick release gives you a very matte finish but moisturizes your lip thanks to the rosehip oil content. Like the rest of its line, it is not tested on animals and it does not contain paraben. Choose from an array of universally flattering shades!
Skin by John Robert Powers Moisturizing Lip Color with SPF 15
If you’re not quite the liquid lip kind of girl and you prefer to stick to bullet lipsticks, this one by Skin by John Robert Powers is moisturizing and has sun protection. It has six shades and contains jojoba oil and shea butter.
Farmstay Formula All-in-One Galactomyces CC Cream
Galacto-what? Don’t worry, it’s not from outerspace. This CC cream contains yeast extract (that’s what galactomyces is) which hydrates and brightens skin. Yes, it does quite a lot so remember the ingredient! It also contains SPF 50 PA+++, much more than the minimum daily requirement. Whether you’re just going to work inside an office or have a bit of time under the sun, try this CC cream to protect and beautify your skin.
The brand name should say it all—Physicians’ Formula was originally formulated for Dr. Frank Crandall’s wife who had lupus and wanted to wear makeup that wouldn’t worsen her sensitive skin. So he set out to make a hypoallergenic brand and conceptualized “healthy beauty.” Best-selling Murumuru Butter Bronzer and Butter Blush contains skin moisturizers murumuru, fatty acids, and pro-vitamins.
