What is the best brand for hypoallergenic/natural eye makeup?

Hypoallergenic isn’t actually a ‘thing’ it’s a marketing term, it doesn’t really mean anything at all, (Clinique use Hypoallergenic, Dermatologist and Ophthalmologist tested as a selling point, but they don’t actually say that the doctors approved/recommended them, just tested them) Also, just because it’s natural doesn’t mean that it’s not going to cause a reaction, in fact most of the things people are allergic too are natural products or by products rather than synthetic. a brand that claim to be natural are BareMinerals/Bare Essentuals, but they use Bismuth Oxide in their foundation, and that makes my face itch like crazy!

Are you using high end or drug store eyeshadows? the first thing I would say that if you’re not using them already, switch to high end, most of the time these contain higher quality ingredients which I find generally cause less breakouts or reactions in most people, I’ll list some good brands to try.

Laura Mercier – High quality, pigmented and smooth, lovely eyeshadows and I’ve never known any client with sensitive eyes to react to them

MAC – again, similar to Laura Mercier, nice eyeshadows, good colour range, not too painful of a price either.

Clinique – even after what I said above, I do normally find them to be nice eyeshadows.

Urban Decay – Avoid the glittery shades (unless you want glitter all over your face, each to their own) these are nice too, and have some vegan colours.

Mineral Make Up (various companies) hit and miss, but often more ‘natural’

Boots No.7 (Boots in the UK, Target in the USA) make a mascara specifically for sensitive eyes.

With most of these companies, you can go to their counter, as for them to try some on you and see if you react, if you do you know to avoid, or try a different combination (try a base or without a base, eyeliner or without)

Another tip would be stick to neutrals, this sounds a bit weird but a lot of pigments/colourings can irritate skin, it’s different for different people, red or pink is the most common irritant, so stay away from those.

Also avoid glitter! the glitter partials could be irritating you.

If you do find you have a reaction, remove with a make up remover like Bioderma (harder to get hold of in the USA) Lancome Bi Facial (takes most make up off super easy, wet the pad, place it on your closed eye for 15 seconds and wipe it all away) you could then spray your face (eyes closed!) with a Spray like Avene Thermal Water, which is really soothing for skin, my sister in law has such sensitive skin sometimes water can irritate it, but this works well for her, and old school but good trick as well, is slices of cucumber which cools and soothes, so after removing, place these on your eyes for 5-10 minutes and let them soothe skin.

If none of this helps, go see your doctors, you could have an allergy or a problem with your eyes.

Good Luck! and let me know if anything helps!

Hypoallergenic Makeup

I’m not sure what the very best brand for hypoallergenic eye makeup or any other makeup is since we all have our own preferences but here are some of the best makeup items from various brands: http://www.amazon.com/s?rh=n%3A11058281%2Cp_n_them…

When you have sensitive skin, lots of makeup products can cause bad reactions. I’ve never had it as bad as you with the headaches but blood shot eyes, yes.

It’s hard to say what the best brand is since we react to different things but give a few of the products on that Amazon page a try. There are many eye makeup products on there that are gentle on the eyes. They’re all hypoallergenic and should work in prevent any bad reactions but of course, that really depends on what you’re allergic to.

For most people, the makeup products on this page won’t cause any bad reactions..

“You should not always trust a label’s “hypoallergenic” stamp. This term is not well-regulated and can be used by companies, even if their products are not actually safe for use on sensitive skin. Truly hypoallergenic makeup products will have no added fragrance, no parabens, and are never tested on animals. Some may even contain skin soothing ingredients like aloe vera.”

I personally love the brand MAC and I have pretty sensitive skin, but I don’t know how this pertains to you. I’m sorry I can’t name any specifics, but I can promise that drugstore makeups will not do the trick. I think a more natural is most likely going to be more expensive. I know dior is a good brand of all cosmetics. Laura mercier can be nice sometimes. Bobby Brown has good shadows, but I don’t really know much about them. I know that clinique bothers me sometimes. I think loreal can only sometimes have decent things (non-drugstore). you might try some of those brands. I think that some stores like whole foods sells natural cosmetics. i don’t know how good of quality it is though. Hopw this helped ?

I had the same problem so I went to a permanent makeup eyeliner tattoo. It never rubs off, line is always Straightt which was another reason I had it done. I had mine done when I was in my late forties and have had a touch up twice since and I am now sixty. You can pick out your style, your color and when you step out you don’t even have to put mascara on though sometimes I do. As for pain, they numb your eye and there is no down time. Follow instructions and you will be fine. Your eyes may be puffy and ice will take care of that. It cost me $350. Worth it! At least check it out.

My little boy had eczema on his cheeks. I was not sure what method to use but I didn’t want to make my boy go through any surgery treatments at this young age. Some suggested a plastic surgeon since it was in a very visible location but our family doctor recommend this natural guide.
