Natural Mascara is colored with mineral colorants, not FD&C dyes. They are also fragrance-free, and paraben-free. Although NOT water-proof, our natural mascara has GREAT wear-ability and resists smudging, but washes off easily with regular skin cleanser and water. Instead of using synthetic chemicals, such as PVP (polyvinyl pyrolidone), as the binder as in commercial mascara, this mascara uses sugar-based biopolymer. A much better choice for sensitive eyes! To avoid flaking, please shake the Mascara bottle well to distribute the ingredients with the clays. Contains: water, sugar-based biopolymers (polysaccharide), kaolin clay, lecithin, grapefruit seed extract, citric acid. May contain iron oxide. Caution: Do not allow Mascara to freeze - Keep out of the car if the weather is cold. If you are unsatisfied with any of our Natural Cosmetics products, mail us the unused portion (within 15 days) and receive a full refund.
