Review: Stript Makeup



Stript Make-Up is a vegan cosmetic brand that is "stripped" of parabens, artificial oils, dyes and fragrances. Eco chic has never been so sexy!



Stript Make-Up offers the latest in paraben-free preservatives called Natural Broad Spectrum Microbial Growth Inhibitors. They use natural alternatives to synthetic ingredients in their formulations - vanilla, almond, marine botanicals, cotton and japanese honeysuckle.



Stript crushed mineral high-intensity eyeshadows can be applied wet or dry for a range of tonal qualities and pigment pay-offs. Use alone or combine with their smooth, blendable and smear-proof mineral eye pencils.

Review: I received the Raven (grayish black) and Misty (goldish) eye shadows ($18 each). These eyeshadows exceed my eye expectations. My only complaint is that Raven doesn't stay on throughout the day. I usually balk at gold eyeshadows, but I'm favoring the Misty. I like to blend this with my other eyeshadows to spice them up.



Light diffusion and flawless coverage. Stript crushed mineral foundations create a soft focus optical effect. Coverage ranges from sheer to full camouflage. Marine botanicals rich in energizing minerals, trace elements, amino acids and vitamins A,C,E and B react with the protective surface barrier of the skin to form a natural moisturizing complex. Stimulates collagen production and increases vitality.

Review: Hardly a "stript" tease. This foundation ($36) provides full frontal...coverage. It minimizes the appearance of pores and blemishes. This is hands down the best foundation I ever tried. It is so natural looking that I can't tell that I'm wearing makeup. There is no need for me to re-apply, because it lasts throughout the day. I tried it with the kabuki brush, but it caused bit of a mess. So I just use my fingertip to apply.
This foundation is a bit pricey, but it is well worth it.



Stript crushed mineral blushes offer the same skin benefits as our marine botanical formula foundations. And Stript opaque, high-pigment mineral concealers camouflage discolorations while treating skin to antioxidants A, C and E. Convenient pencil applicator allows for flawless spot correction of the eye area and blemishes.

Review:
I received Sugar ($20) which is described as a soft peachy pink. I usually don't wear blush, but I really like this blush. It is very easy to apply over the foundation and will not make it look streaky. Plus, it lasts throughout the day like the foundation does.

Now, I can see why Jamie Lynn Spears is such a big fan of this line!
