I've loved makeup ever since I was a little girl. I used to sit on my parents bed and watch my Mom do her makeup every morning I had the chance to. The process, the colors, the beauty of it all.
Like most females, a trip to Sephora, Ulta or anywhere where makeup is sold is ALWAYS exciting for me. Whats new, what are the new colors for the season, what's trending? And I love a good tutorial!
Fast forward many years to when I was a few years into my career, when I met Jane Iredale Cosmetics. I can honestly say it was love at first application. It was around 2006 or 2007 when I started working with Jane Iredale cosmetics professionally. "Clean" makeup and skincare really hadn't taken off at that point, but Jane Iredale was ahead of its time. They market themselves as the "Skincare Makeup" and it made perfect sense. Why concentrate so much time, energy and money on you skincare and skincare treatments, to then go around and apply just any old makeup, filled with harmful ingredients that clog your pores, cause inflammation and can potentially be dangerous to your skins health and your overall health. Jane Iredale from day 1 has always been:
Paraben Free
Gluten Free (unless noted)
Natural Ingredients
Talc Free
No artificial fragrances
Cruelty Free
Phthalate Free
GMO Free
While still maintaining high preforming, long lasting products with out jepordizing the health of ones radiant complexion.
Here are my favorite go-to staple Jane Iredale products
