Monave: Mineral Makeup with Organic Ingredients + NO Animal Testing {Giveaway}

Posted by Angela V / Published on March 20, 2013

Monave Makeup

I am a minimal, natural looking makeup kind of gal. I always use mineral foundation and powder because they are natural looking and they feel like second skin. I also avoid wearing cakey makeup that would clog my pores and causes allergies on my very sensitive skin.

Mineral foundation/powder is less likely to cause reactions in women with sensitive skin. And because it doesn’t contain any oil, it won’t aggravate acne prone skin.

Enter Monavé cosmetics, one of my favourites. Monavé offers a line of mineral cosmetics, facial care and natural hair care products for women. At Monavé they use ingredients that are organic, gluten-free and 95% vegan.  They don’t believe in animal testing and their products are also free of paraben, preservatives, dyes and bismuth oxychloride.

Monavé has a wonderful product selection and they have a wide array of shades for all skin types. I received a sample of their Loose Mineral Foundation, Versatile Powder, Brown Eye Liner and Lip Glaze to try. I love how natural the foundation and powder look and how easy to apply they are.  They both stay on all day long and I don’t need to touch up or re-apply them multiple times during the day.

I also love that the eyeliner is super smooth, creamy and easy to apply. The lip glaze is super shiny and beautiful and keeps my lips looking pretty and moisturized.I am a really big fan of Monavé and their high quality products.  Be sure to check out their website if you want to try natural looking makeup that is safe and organic.

Win it: One lucky US/CAN reader will win a Monavé makeup kit including Mineral Foundation, Versatile Powder, Eye Liner and Lip Glaze (shades of their choice). Enter to win the giveaway below via Rafflecopter. Good Luck Everyone!

    I really want to try their Natural Mascara. When I wear makeup, it is usually just mascara unless it’s a special event. But I need to start using natural makeup when I do wear it! Thanks for the chance.

    I would love to try the Loose Mineral Foundation product… it is organic, gluten free, never tested on animals, plus has no oil so acne prone and sensitive skin is not irritated. I like the fact also, that no harsh synthetic ingredients such as parabens are added. This product also looks like it’s easy to apply and looks natural while making you feel and look beautiful and flawless!
