Rich, smooth, natural eye shadow

If you're anything like me, you find something that works and stick with it. Especially in the world of cosmetics. So replacing my old fav makeup with non-toxic, green versions has been no easy task. As you can imagine, there has been a lot of trial and error. But as I find the gems, I will share them with you (of course) so you don't have to waste time with the duds!

One of the toughest things to find has been eyeshadow. My most common complaints with the brands I've tried are that pigments are weak or that they don't last. C'mon, what busy mom has time to re-apply? Fortunately a local Washington brand called Gabriel Cosmetics stands out above the rest.

Most importantly, the Gabriel Color eye shadows are free of mineral oil and talc. Though many companies claim to have green products, if you purchase online, they don't disclose their ingredients before you receive the item. Gabriel Cosmetics lists all the ingredients in their products on their website so you can feel secure about your purchase. Another benefit is that the shade you see in a jar of Gabriel Color eyeshadow is the shade you will see on your eyes. It goes on smooth and even, doesn't crease and lasts all day. An added bonus is that several of the natural foods stores in my area carry Gabriel Color so I can pick up my cosmetics while I grocery shop. Now that's something this busy mom appreciates!

Though I've been singing the praises of the Gabriel Color eye shadows, I'm equally smitten with their eyeliner. Like the shadow, the liner goes on smooth with true rich color. With results like these, I can't wait to try some of the other products from Gabriel Cosmetics!
