What kind of make-up do you wear? Are you sure of the safety of the ingredients?

Alright! So, I rarely ever wear makeup, and after watching a video that I discovered on youtube, I’ll probably wear make-up even less than I did…

Brief:—>

*”*Harmful ingredients to watch out for include:

Talc

Mineral Oil

Parabens

There are many others, but so far, these three have been mostly linked to health concerns.

Also, acne scarring treatment users beware of the chemical called “HYDROQUINONE.” It is also potentially carcinogenic.

What kind of makeup do you wear? What are the contents?

I use a variety of kinds of makeup. I have some mary kay eyeliners and mascara, some bella piere mineral powder foundation and blush.. Random sorts of palettes of eye shadows.etc. I think some of the makeup I have does contain possible hazardous ingredients… I don’t know what I will do with them now.

So, do you think your make-up is safe—health wise? Does anybody know for sure which makeups are safe, or which other ingredients to watch out for? Please do share!

Thanks!
