Products / Beauty

Chemical contaminants are everywhere and makeup, with its daily application to the skin, is a key concern for many people. The makeup industry has come a long way from its early days. The early 20th century brought ingredients like lead, mercury and arsenic to your common makeup pallet, so things are a little better these days. However, in today’s world the kinds of chemicals used are also much more sophisticated. There are long lists of ingredients to avoid. Sodium laurel sulfate, parabens, BHA, triclosan and triclocarban are just a few names to avoid. These chemicals can disrupt your hormonal balance and wreak havoc on your health. This is why finding natural makeup options is important.

RMS Beauty is committed not only to avoiding dangerous chemicals completely, but to creating makeup that exceeds the quality of other brands that claim to be all natural. Even if a product is made with safe ingredients, the process through which those ingredients went to become makeup can involve bleaching, heating and refining, which can impair the quality of an otherwise safe brand. RMS strives to not only avoid harming skin, but to improve it. They use organic products in their line which work with skin to provide nutrients while also doing the work of makeup to improve color. RMS perfected this system to include products for face, lips and eyes, as well as skin care like its raw coconut cream that removes makeup with ease. This company makes investing in makeup a long-term enterprise for your health.
