10 Ways To Make Your Own Non-Toxic Makeup
As more people become aware of the harmful chemicals contained in many mainstream cosmetics, DIY alternatives are becoming increasingly popular. Making your own non-toxic makeup is a great way to ensure that you know exactly what is going onto your skin. Here are 10 ways to make your own non-toxic makeup.
1. Lipstick: To create a simple, natural lipstick, you need just two ingredients: beeswax and oil. Melt one tablespoon of beeswax in a double boiler with two tablespoons of oil (such as coconut oil or olive oil). Once melted, stir in any desired pigments (such as beetroot powder or cocoa powder) and pour the mixture into a lip balm container.
2. Foundation: To create a liquid foundation, mix a tablespoon of aloe vera gel with a tablespoon of your favorite face oil (such as argan oil). Add cocoa powder or mica powder until you achieve your desired shade. Adjust the ratios until you find the perfect mix for you.
3. Mascara: Combine a tablespoon of beeswax, a tablespoon of activated charcoal, and a tablespoon of coconut oil in a double boiler. Pour the mixture into a cleaned up mascara tube and you have your own homemade mascara.
4. Eyeliner: Combine activated charcoal and coconut oil (in a ratio of 1:1) and add a pinch of bentonite clay. Mix well and transfer to a small jar using a spatula or brush. Store in a cool, dry place.
5. Blush: Mix a 1/2 teaspoon of beetroot powder and a 1/4 teaspoon of arrowroot powder together in a small container. Adjust the ratio to achieve your desired shade.
6. Bronzer: Mix a tablespoon of cocoa powder, a tablespoon of arrowroot powder, and a teaspoon of cinnamon powder together for a DIY bronzer that can be applied with a brush.
7. Highlighter: Add a teaspoon each of mica powder, arrowroot powder, and finely ground Shimmer Dust to a mixing bowl. Mix well, transfer to a small container, and use it as a highlighter for your cheeks and other facial features.
8. Eyeshadow: For a simple, natural eyeshadow, mix cocoa powder and arrowroot powder in a ratio of 1:1.
9. Setting powder: To set your makeup without using silicone or talc, mix a tablespoon of arrowroot powder with a tablespoon of cornstarch. You can also add a teaspoon of cinnamon powder to add color.
10. Nail polish: Combine a clear nail polish base with pigments like hibiscus or beetroot powder, pour into a small bottle and mix well. Apply and have a colorful mani-pedi in no time.
Making your own non-toxic makeup is easy, cost-effective and better for your health. Try these natural, non-toxic alternatives and see the difference it makes for your skin.
