Hiya Gorgeous,
Elizabeth Taylor once said, “Pour yourself a drink, put on some lipstick, and pull yourself together.” There’s something empowering and totally sexy about a really great lipstick. Although I don’t wear it everyday, I love to dress up my smoocher when I’m out on the town or on stage. And I know many of my readers are curious about which lipsticks are safest and perform the best, which is why it’s Crazy Sexy Review time!
Every product we put on our bodies matters, but lipstick is something I pay extra attention to. After a day of noshing, green juice drinking, and gabbing, I’ve probably eaten a lot of it! There are lots of statistics on how much lipstick someone eats during their lifetime. Estimates range from 3.5 – 7 pounds. Regardless, we all know that some of the ingredients end up in our bodies and that they can build up over time. When the Environmental Working Group (EWG) studied body burden (the amount of chemicals stored in our bodies) they found the average person has nearly 300 different chemicals in their system, including PCBs and DDT, which were banned over 30 YEARS AGO in the US. We just don’t know what the long term effects of the buildup of these chemicals are, and the things we do know are pretty alarming.
That’s why I did a ton of research with my team of beauty sleuths (aka my wonderful staff!) over the course of several months on the most popular natural lipstick brands out there. The lipsticks chosen are based on your votes! And once again, I teamed up with the EWG to analyze the ingredients for each product so that you have the most up-to-date safety ratings. I picked my favorite colors, checked out whether they’ve been certified by PETA or Leaping Bunny and added the price for each—just to save you some extra time. I’ve also added some notes on my experience with each product to help you pick the best one for your needs. Here are the results!

For those of you who are wellness detectives like I am and want to know more about how we vet the products I recommend, read this.
Thank for the suggest! I do! I have tubes of lip balm everywhere.
I Mostly used no 3.
Au Naturale is a great lip “stain” that I love! It’s really more of a liquid lipstick than a stain though. Feels great and smells heavenly. Lily Lolo and Nudus are two other brands with great lipsticks. I’ve heard trust fund beauty is good but never have tried. I want to try 100% pure because of this article!
Very well written and nicely explained 🙂
I Like your blog and blogging style 🙂
I have used this product & I can say its awesome 🙂
