I recently got an e-mail from somebody who also has a PG allergy. She was wondering what I use for makeup and is still trying to get her skin to clear up, poor thing! She said it feels and looks like her skin is burnt all the time.
I directed her to the chart I use to decide which body / hair / etc. products I can use: http://scheman.com/images/Brochures/acag.pdf
And here are the makeup products I use on a daily basis…. Looking at it like this, it looks like a lot, but I swear it doesn’t look like a lot when it’s on my face!
From the lop left and going clockwise:
powder to set the foundation: Covergirl Trublend Minerals
eyebrow definer: Covergirl – it’s the black/brown color. Sorry, I don’t know much bc it’s so worn down!
eyeshadow: Revlon ColorStay Mineral Eye Shadow, Maybelline Eyestudio
eyeliner: L’Oreal – color: 920 Lush Raven (I apply it with the angled brush after applying my eyeshadow)
foundation: Covergirl & Olay Simply Ageless with SPF 22
blush: Neutrogena Healthy Skin Blends
mascara: Almay One Coat – Thickening
Together, these products even out any uneven skin tone on my face and make my eyes look like this:
I Just recently added a “Propylene Glycol Free” board on my Pinterest page, which I’ll be adding many more items to: pinterest.com/allergista

Check out 100% Pure online. Their store fronts are in CA. I am allergic to many things including anything with the word Poly, in it. (plastic). 100 % Pure is the only make up and lotion I can use now.

Some other great lines are Everyday Minerals and Aubrey Organics (found online). Those are also paraben free.
