To look our best and be in the pink of health, we watch our diet and join fitness programs. And even if we do veer away from food laden with preservatives and harmful chemicals, we still do make it a point to detoxify every now and then. However, what we don’t realize is that food is not the only source of toxin that enters our body. You’d be surprised to find out that some cosmetic and skincare products you’re using now actually steep your body with harmful chemicals. Yes, they may make you look good and feel good for a couple of hours but they wreck havoc inside your body.
Fortunately, we do have a ‘healthy’ choice of cosmetics, too. Established by Miranda Bond and Jenni Williams, INIKA provides women with natural and organic makeup which are entirely synthetic chemical-free. Only ingredients that are certified organic or vegan, certified halal, and certified cruelty free are used in formulating their makeup. These are cosmetics that not only make you look good but also make you feel good inside. I tried two products from their extensive makeup range and I must say that they are wonderful!
The Certified Organic Creme Colour for Cheeks & Lips gives me that natural looking blush that’s perfect for daytime. Application is quite easy as it glides on smoothly. The crème colour lasts for hours so I didn’t have to worry about touch-ups throughout the day. Moreover, this makeup moisturizes my skin with its infusion of Jojoba Oil and Vitamin E. It’s like getting pampered by your makeup, really. The Creme Colour comes in Dusty Rose and Rosehip. I suggest that you get the Dusty Rose if you prefer a natural glow and the Rosehip if you want vibrant red lips and rosy cheeks. Then again, just get both colours so you have yourself covered from day to night.
To complete my look, I also got the Certified Organic Champagne Creme Colour for Eyes which is perfect for brightening my eyes. It gives that tinge of colour that’s barely there but highlights my eyes just right. Like the crème colour for the cheeks and lips, this one also has moisturizing properties. Formulated with Aloe Vera, Shea Butter, Jojoba Seed Oil, and Sweet Almond Oil that helps hydrate, soothe and moisturize my peepers. Plus, I can also use it to highlight my brow bones. This crème colour can be applied using your fingertips but I suggest you get yourself the INIKA Eye Shadow Brush for better application.
These two makeup products from INIKA make me look my best. Apart from having makeup on, I think there’s this glow that exudes from within knowing that my skin and my body are safe from toxins. Now, this is the secret of real beauty!
