Looking for a natural mascara? Are you concerned about mercury and/or other toxic ingredients that may be lurking in that little tube? With the latest revelation that mercury may reside in mascara, women are searching for safe alternatives. For a non-toxic and effective choice, consider Dr. Hauschka.
Non-Toxic Cosmetics
You can feel safe and have beautiful lashes with this natural mascara.
All of Dr. Hauschka’s skin care products are free of synthetic preservatives, colors, and scents. No "mascara aroma," no parabens, and NO mercury. Natural makeup that utilizes botanical ingredients for preservatives.
Gentle and soothing, this opthalmologically-tested product is especially helpful for those with sensitive eyes. In fact, eye irritation is what prompted me to switch to Dr. Hauschka’s mascara.
Botanical Ingredients
The vast majority of ingredients in the Dr.Hauschka natural cosmetic and skin care line are biodynamically and organically grown. There is no animal testing. This mascara includes beeswax, rose and candelilla waxes, combined with silk powder, for fullness and protection. Neem leaf extract strengthens lashes while black tea and eyebright extracts sooth and care for the delicate skin around your eyes.
A Trade Off
Don’t expect the lash lengthening ability of "wonder" mascaras (which likely contain potentially toxic ingredients) in this product. In addition, it is not waterproof. These are minor factors, in my opinion. Health and peace of mind are worth more to me than lash lengthening. (An umbrella helps when it rains!)
It may not be perfect, but I love this product. I’ve used Dr. Hauschka cosmetics for several years now. My lashes are fine and sparse, yet this works for me. It never irritates my sensitive eyes. I feel confidant knowing that Dr. Hauschka’s skin care products are "100% certified natural." No mercury added!
