ALL NATURAL MASCARAS All Natural Mascaras are Good for your Eyes and the Environment  | | Like so many divas, I love the look of long, full, healthy lashes and mascara is one of my ‘go-to’ beauty products. I wear contact lenses too, so I definitely need a formula that won’t flake off and get into my eyes. | | While many types of mascara offer various benefits, including lengthening and thickening to name a few, they may also contain chemicals that can cause eye irritation. Each time we remove our eye makeup, rub our eyes or shed a tear, chances are we are getting at least a tiny bit of our makeup in our eyes. Usually this is an issue for those with sensitive eyes, contact wearers or for folks who are looking for more natural and environmentally friendly cosmetics and natural mascaras might be just the answer you are looking for. Most of these formulas are paraben free and contain very little in the way of chemical additives that could cause your eyes to be unhappy! Let’s check them out: | Enriched with vitamins E and aloe, this non-drying and conditioning formula has mineral-based coloring and is free from polymers, talc and lacquer. Available in black, brown or blue shades, this formula contains herbal extracts and is wonderful for contact lens wearers. |  | | Volumizing, flake proof, smudge proof and clump free, this product is also alcohol free, paraben free, synthetic dye free, perfume free, mercury free, mineral oil free, tar free, petrochemical free, gluten free.
