Portland, Ore. based cosmetics company Alima Pure lives up to it’s namesake. Their products – which range from luminous eyeshadows to foundations to skin correcting primers -are 100% mineral-based, and free from any and all nasty stuff you wouldn’t want to see in a concrete mixer, let alone on your face. The line is kind to the environment, to animals, and to you.
Another thing that makes Alima Pure our exclusive go-to when it comes to makeup is the way that their entire line of products enhances your natural beauty, rather than ‘fakeifying’ you. Their Luminous Shimmer Eyeshadow in Leone, for example – which is a pale, neutral gold, if you were wondering – coats the eyelids in a super-subtle wash of colour (so subtle in fact, that at first you might think it’s not working hard enough) that makes your eyes brighter, your skin more luminous, and your face more sculpted. Really, it’s like getting Gisele’s angles in a pot. The foundations are just as good, typically melting seamlessly into the skin while covering everything that you want it to, and even improving your natural skin condition, even for problem types. We can tell this is going to be a hit.
