13 Natural Eyeshadows for Looks That Pop

Natural eyeshadow ensures that you can play with makeup without feeling concerned about the ingredients. It’s a perfect choice for sensitive skin, or any skin really. After all, out of every type of natural makeup, eyeshadow is one of the cosmetics that you apply closest to your eyes.  So we want to be sure there’s no toxins around. Purchasing a natural eyeshadow palette doesn’t mean you need to skimp on color choices or quality, either. In fact, product quality only rises when brands show interest in ethical, eco-friendly ingredients and processes. So whether you’re going for a bold, colorful effect or looking for a natural brown eyeshadow, there are plenty of perfect choices within the world of clean beauty.

Talc-Free Eyeshadow

Talc is one of the most important ingredients to avoid in all-natural eyeshadow formulas. Talc has a high contamination rate with asbestos fibers, which causes it to be toxic when inhaled. And, asbestos is a mineral you usually find in close proximity to talc. Even without this contamination, though, talc is still a toxic risk on its own. The eyeshadows featured here are all talc-free and vetted for non-toxicity, so you can be sure you’re avoiding the right ingredients.

Refillable Eyeshadow Palettes

Some of the best natural eyeshadow palettes are refillable. This allows them to offer a unique, low-waste approach to beauty. Ere Perez’s non-toxic eyeshadow palette features a magnetic case so you can easily slip new pans into the compact when you need to replace one. The Organic Skin Co. offers single eyeshadows so you can mix colors and refill by popping out the single cakes when you’re finished. Similarly, Kjaer Weis’ eyeshadow features single organic eyeshadows, but in different packaging options so you can choose how to limit waste. We’ve featured their striking red packaging that doesn’t sacrifice form for function – or sustainability. It’s one hundred percent recyclable and compostable at the end of it’s long lifespan.
