These Top Foundations and Concealers Also Happen to be Completely Organic
I’m the go-to guide gal and routine queen here at Adore Beauty. I have a background in media and communications, and over 3 years experience in the beauty industry.
When I’m not answering all of your burning questions, you can find me spruiking underrated products to my co-workers and trying to figure out what our best bloody mascara is.
If you’ve been thinking about making the switch to organic makeup and skin care lately, you’re definitely not the only one.
It’s no surprise that as we’ve become more conscious about ingredient lists, we’ve turned to Clean Beauty categories when buying concealers and foundation.
But really, what makes a product organic, and why might you want to reach for an organic concealer or organic foundation over other options?
Essentially, products that have been certified as organic are made from natural or naturally derived ingredients without genetic modification or the help of synthetic chemicals, herbicides or pesticides.
Many people like to keep things organic because of the idea that the chemicals in these products might be absorbed by the skin or end up down the sink.
Some people take issue with the very nature of non-organic farming and then there are others that simply like to be mindful when it comes to knowing where and how the ingredients in their products are sourced.
People with sensitive skin, acne prone skin and eczema may also opt for organic products if their skin is sensitised to particular synthetic dyes and fragrances found in non-organic cosmetic products.
We’re here for whatever reason you’ve chosen to make the switch, so we’ve put together a list of the best natural organic concealers, organic mineral foundations, organic pressed powders and more.
Here are our favourite organic foundations and concealers at every price range:
The organic cream concealer that gives ultimate coverage
Want a concealer that glides on and smooths the skin? The INIKA Full Coverage Concealer is a creamy, full-coverage concealer that uses certified organic ingredients like Sunflower Seed Oil, Sweet Almond Oil and Shea Butter to provide hydration. This buildable formula is easily applied with fingers or a small detail brush and is vegan and cruelty free. It's a nourishing skin loving formula with full coverage results.
This organic vegan foundation gives a soft focus effect
Looking for the ultimate complexion product with a broad shade range that is still completely organic? Try the Nude By Nature Flawless Foundation. This organic liquid foundation full coverage foundation has a silky satin semi-matte finish, which blends in easily and feels weightless. It is also fragrance free so it’s ideal for sensitive skin types.
If you struggle with dark circles, pigmentation and sun spots then the organic concealer you should opt for is the Jane Iredale Enlighten Concealer #1. Using a trio of organic plant extracts, this medium coverage concealer is great at hydrating the underarea, decreasing puffiness and lightly colour correcting. It’s an easy to use pot concealer that can be applied with fingers or a small concealer brush.
For sensitive skin types try a loose mineral powder
Sensitive and acne prone skin types can react to certain clogging ingredients and fragrances in regular foundations. The Inika Loose Mineral Foundation is an excellent organic mineral option that is gentle on the skin. This 100% natural option is lightweight, blendable and offers flawless coverage walking as a foundation, concealer and powder. A little goes a long way with this water resistant powder, which can be applied using a Kabuki brush and swept all over the face.
A cheap organic concealer that outperforms the rest
An affordable option we love is the Nude by Nature Liquid Mineral Concealer. This lightweight, creamy concealer mimics the quality of many of our high end favourites, making it a re-purchasable alternative if you don’t want to break the bank. It’s fresh, natural and totally skin like, making it one of our favourite organic, vegan and cruelty free options all round. Just apply straight from the tube and blend out with a small brush or beauty sponge.
This is the best organic matte foundation we’ve found
For an all matte, medium coverage option try the Mirenesse Liquid Silk Foundation. This water based foundation keeps skin shine free and won’t clog your pores. It provides long lasting, flawless coverage with a hint of sun protection making it a perfect everyday foundation. Plus, it can be blended out quickly and easily with a buffing brush or beauty sponge. Try this formula if you want natural, seamless results.
The Youngblood Ultimate Concealer is another pot concealer that packs a punch. This easy to blend formula contains a range of light reflecting minerals that brighten the skin while still looking extremely natural. This concealer contains Vitamins A and E to smooth and hydrate the skin, making it perfectly blendable. It has a rich formula that is easily applied with your fingertips or a small blending brush for a diffused effect.
Refill your favourite organic compact foundation
We love organic products that come in reusable, eco-friendly packaging, so it’s no surprise that we love the Jane Iredale PurePressed Pressed Minerals Refill. This organic compact refill has an extremely re-purchasable micro-mineral formula that feels weightless on the skin and lightly camouflages redness. It’s gentle on sensitive skin types and provides a tonne of skin benefits when you lightly dust this formula across the skin.
