Does anyone know of any? Thanks in advance!

I had to throw away my Burt's Bees makeup because the traces of toxins in it make my neuropathy and ataxia start up :(

Edit: can the mods please change the title to "any brands of organic solvent-free 100% natural makeup?"? Thanks!

Burts Bees products are pretty much all scented, including the ones that say they are not. That can also be the problem.

Thank you. That would explain it.

Where did you find that out?

[Luminosity]

Experience, and reading ingredients, and their reputation, but I also ran a support group for people with allergies and chemical sensitivities

reading ingredients

But you said:

I'm confused.

There are ingredients that they don't identify as scents but I can figure it out. They just look like a plant extracts etc. I would just avoid Burt's Bees because they are not serious about truth in labeling and promote their products as scent free for babies when they are not. That seems like a serious ethical violation to me. I would look elsewhere. There are truly fragrance free cosmetics out there and some that falsely claim to be. Save receipts and return the ones that aren't. You can even open them outside the store and smell them and then take them back in and return them if you can smell the fragrances. Some can.
