What's inside Natural Matte Longwear Foundation
Every ingredient below links to its full breakdown: safe amount, studies, and every other product that contains it.
Dimethicone
Silicone
A silicone that smooths texture and locks in long-wear formulas. Considered non-irritating, though it can feel heavy if overused.
See full ingredient pageMica
Shimmer pigment
A mineral that gives makeup its shimmer and light-reflecting finish. Low irritation risk on skin; the real concerns around mica are ethical mining practices, not health.
See full ingredient pageAlcohol Denat
Denatured Alcohol
Helps long-wear formulas dry down fast, but it's genuinely drying and can strip the skin's barrier with repeated use.
