November 5, 2016- Organic makeup is all the rage in the beauty world these days. People are seen gravitating towards cosmetics that claim to be organic because they’re now more conscious about what they put on their skin. Currently, no United States governmental certification exists to specifically certify cosmetics as ‘organic’ or ‘natural’. Now, any cosmetic product that carries the USDA Organic seal was certified under the only government criteria that exists for organic certifications in the U.S., the USDA certified organic food certification.
Color cosmetics by their very nature contain pigments to give the product it’s intense color and coverage. Even the most natural pigments used in cosmetics don’t come from plants, they come from the earth, they are inert, were never cultivated and therefore can never be certified organic.
Under the USDA’s certified organic standards, even color cosmetics must meet the 95%+ certified organic ingredients of the total formula threshold to become a certified organic product. Color cosmetics generally contain 15%-40% mineral pigment content to offer sufficient color and coverage. With so much required mineral pigment, even the most natural makeup can’t meet these USDA food grade certified organic standards.
Afterglow Cosmetics is a line of cosmetics designed to be “All Natural”. All natural makeup has no hint of synthetic chemicals and is purely made from naturally found and derived ingredients that are super friendly for the skin and known to nourish the skin as they beautify it.
While majority of mineral based products are still loaded with various synthetic ingredients such as dyes (FD&C and Lake), toxic synthetic fragrances, parabens, petro-chemical derivatives (PEG and petrolatum), bismuth oxychloride and dimethicone., Afterglow products are paraben-free, gluten-free, synthetic fragrance-free, bismuth oxychloride-free and cruelty-free. When it comes to delivering absolutely natural makeup, Afterglow cosmetics take a definite lead in the beauty industry.
Afterglow’s products are manufactured in the USA and formulated with the most pure pharmaceutical-grade pigments and organic botanicals. The products are perfect for any age and skin type. Certified cruelty-free by PETA and Leaping Bunny gives extra level of consciousness, care and comfort to the consumer knowing that no animals were harmed at any point in the sourcing of ingredients or during manufacturing process. In fact, 60% of the products are also vegan while all others are completely vegetarian friendly.
