Looking for the best non-toxic lipstick in your perfect shade? Packed with pigments but without the harmful ingredients, these clean lipsticks are the safest in cosmetics while moisturizing your lips.
Maybe it’s just me, but I think more about the ingredients in my lipstick than the ingredients in my other makeup. It has something to do with having it on my mouth and thinking about physically ingesting the product… am I alone with this? I feel naked even without lip product. This can lead to quite a puzzle!
Thankfully, Clean Beauty has taken a step up the non-toxic lipstick department in recent years. For a long time it was just ILIA to kill the game, but now there are so many new options that rival traditional lipsticks. As a final clean beauty 5×5, I am reviewing the best non-toxic and natural lipsticks and lip products on the market that you will not regret buying.
What should you watch out for when choosing lipstick?
While to lead is perhaps the most well-known ingredient to avoid in lipsticks, but there are actually a variety of heavy metals to avoid in lipsticks.
The beauty industry doesn’t seem to care about these heavy metals because the scope is so small, but no safe level for exposure to heavy metals has been identified, and repeated exposure can be genuinely harmful. (Source)
Other ingredients to watch out for are parabens, petroleum, dyes, and synthetic fragrances (if you’re sensitive to them).
