Launches We Love!
As more and more makeup lines are launching with healthy ingredients and beautiful color palettes, there is simply no good reason not to choose natural makeup!
La Bella Figura More than Makeup
La Bella Figura is smart about skincare, and its new makeup line, with skincare properties, is thoughtful, as well. The Golden Corrective Highlighter is infused with vitamin C-rich kakadu plum, the lovely Hydrating Lip Colours are loaded with cupuacu butter, and the silky eyeshadows contain camellia seed oil.
