Make up with make-up

Over the years I have started to slowly convert all my everyday products to being all natural/organic/cruelty free etc. the hardest one for me was find a good make-up. One that looked good, felt good, didn't clog my pores and didn't cost too much. Through my many try's I have come up with my top three, and they all cost about the same. In order of my favorite to third favorite:
1. 100% Pure Cosmetics
This brand is amazing! They have three actual stores two up near San Francisco and one in West Hollywood but I buy online because even West Hollywood is a bit of a drive for me. Everything they make is printed with how natural it is and everything is either vegetarian or vegan friendly! It looks really natural on and lasts all day. I can even wear the primer and I don't brake out (a huge accomplishment). 
2. Bare Minerals 
The thing I love about this brand is its everywhere! Easy to find and buy. Great for consumers who don't want to change up their routine of buying everything at the mall! It's all natural and doesn't clog your pores, like they say "you can even sleep in it". And really does cover well. 
3. Mineral Fusion
This one is sold usually at health food stores like Clark's Nutrition so you know it's all natural. It's a great product but you don't get as much for your money in terms of actual quantity. I blew through the stuff way quicker then any other make-up. Other than that it's got good coverage and average staying power. 

I know finding good natural make-up is kind hard so hopefully this helped. On a side note other all natural make-up brands worthy of mention that just didn't make the top three list:
Lush
Boots Organic
Physicians Formula 

In that order! I love lush but I have to order online and half of their stuff is so natural that it would melt or spoil if mailed during hot months which is most of the year in Southern California :/ but if there is a store near you definitely check it out!
