A Long history of Cruelty Free <\/strong>Makeup<\/h2>\n

For thousands of years, women and men have been using makeup either to hide imperfections, highlight our best features, to help attract a mate, promote a contemporary look, or even to help you to feel good about yourself.<\/p>\n

Initially, living organisms and natural ingredients were used but some of these were also heavy metals! Ouch. You may have heard the term \u201csuffer for beauty\u201d. Women throughout time have risked their health, their bodies, and even their lives for that perfect posture, look, or style.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ specialty_columns=”2″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_row_inner _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_margin_tablet=”100px|||” custom_margin_phone=”” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”0|0px|0|0px|true|false” box_shadow_style=”preset4″ box_shadow_horizontal=”260px” box_shadow_vertical=”-100px” box_shadow_color=”#e4edea”][et_pb_column_inner saved_specialty_column_type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/bestofcrueltyfree.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/makeyup-artist-30.jpg” align_tablet=”center” align_phone=”” align_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”3.27.4″ animation_style=”zoom” animation_intensity_zoom=”5%” border_width_all=”24px” border_color_all=”#ffffff” box_shadow_style=”preset3″ box_shadow_vertical=”70px” box_shadow_blur=”150px” box_shadow_color=”rgba(0,0,0,0.2)” locked=”off”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ specialty=”on” _builder_version=”3.27.4″ min_height=”851px” custom_padding=”||0px|||”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/bestofcrueltyfree.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/blue-eyes.jpg” _builder_version=”3.27.4″ border_width_all=”25px” border_color_all=”#ffffff” box_shadow_style=”preset1″ box_shadow_vertical=”0px” box_shadow_blur=”62px” box_shadow_spread=”39px”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ specialty_columns=”2″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_row_inner _builder_version=”3.27.4″ custom_padding=”||0px|||”][et_pb_column_inner saved_specialty_column_type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.27.4″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.27.4″ text_font=”Open Sans||||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”16px” link_font=”Open Sans||||||||” link_text_align=”left” link_text_color=”#001877″ header_2_font=”Playfair Display SC||||||||” header_2_text_color=”#e02b20″ header_3_font=”Open Sans||||||||” header_3_text_align=”left” header_3_text_color=”#000000″ header_4_font=”Open Sans||||||||” custom_margin=”||-11px|||”]

Change for the better<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Fortunately, times have changed. Without a doubt, so have our attitudes. The expression \u2018you are what you eat\u2019 rings very true. For example, if you eat unhealthy foodstuffs, would you expect to live to a ripe old age? Perhaps you may but, your complexion may suffer as a result. Your skin could turn out blotchy, pimply, blemished, or discolored. There\u2019s plenty of evidence around to support this.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, the substances we put on our skin – our largest organ, can also have an impact on our wellbeing. Toxins, chemical compounds, preservatives, heavy metals, acids, and bases can all leach into our pores, and potentially our blood streams or lymphatic systems.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.6.5″ text_font=”Open Sans||||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”16px” link_font=”Open Sans||||||||” link_text_align=”left” link_text_color=”#001877″ header_3_font=”Open Sans||||||||” header_3_text_align=”left” header_3_text_color=”#000000″ header_4_font=”Open Sans||||||||” min_height=”323px” custom_margin=”22px|||||” custom_padding=”||0px|||” hover_enabled=”0″ ul_type=”circle” ul_item_indent=”26px” sticky_enabled=”0″]

With that in mind, cruelty free makeup certainly has its advantages:<\/p>\n

  • Ethically and humanely produced<\/li>\n
  • Environmental impact reduced<\/li>\n
  • Safer ingredients<\/li>\n
