Be good to yourself and to mother earth by adding eqo-friendly accessories to your makeup bag.   Good-quality brushes that include bamboo handles and synthetic fibers are just one way you can make a difference to our future and our world.  

Bamboo is very a durable, moisture-resistant grass that originates in China.  One of the advantages of using this plant for everyday items is its ability to grow up to two feet a day, which makes it an easily renewable resource and a good choice for us and the earth.

Not only is it important to love our skin by using healthy, natural makeup & skincare, but it is just as important – and we believe more important – to love our world and those we share this world with.

Lauren Brooke Cosmetiques is committed to helping care for both our planet and those who struggle and are in need of support.  Because of our desire to help,  we have initiated a program called Empowering our World in which we contribute 10% of our profits towards charitable work.  Charitable projects we support range from education & humanitarian aid to disaster relief & childrens’ orphanages.

Especially at this festive time of year when our hearts are drawn to greater love and peace, we are happy to be able to contribute in this way and help to uplift and better our world.

The trend nowadays is to go natural and organic. However, not all natural products can be called organic. Natural means the ingredients are obtained from natural sources such as plants. Organic, on the other hand, means that the natural sources used to make a certain product were grown chemical and pesticide free. Thus, organic means veering away from ingredients that may contain strong and irritating chemicals.

The beauty industry has tapped the use of organic products from organic soaps to organic lip moisturizers as more and more people are demanding to go natural and organic. It is the safer and healthier alternative. Going organic not only helps our body but also keeps our environment clean.

It may be difficult for women who have sensitive skin to find cosmetics suited for them. More often than not, cosmetics contain harsh chemicals that may aggravate a current skin condition or trigger an allergic reaction. This can be a bummer especially when makeup is important in camouflaging blemishes and skin discolorations.

Thanks to pure mineral makeup, women with sensitive skin may now enjoy wearing makeup without the side effects. Pure mineral makeup does not contain harmful and irritating synthetic chemicals. This kind of makeup is good for all skin types and does not irritate the skin. It can hide skin problems such as acne, blemishes and scars. And because it is 100% natural, most dermatologists recommend the use of mineral makeup, especially because they do not clog pores and do not cause allergies.
