Whether you want a sheer, barely-there makeup look, a hydrated glow with light coverage, or medium to full coverage, we’ve got what you need. Our fruit pigmented natural foundations also offer a variety of different finishes: dewy, satin, or matte. Normal to oily, combination, or normal to dry skin types can all find the perfect match in one of our 8 natural foundation lines.

100% PURE® produces many different formulas for all of your natural foundation makeup needs: Tinted Moisturizers colored from Peach and Cocoa pigments, a do-it-all BB Cream formula with UVA/UVB sunblock, a full coverage liquid Healthy Foundation infused with anti-aging superfruits, and even a Powder Foundation makeup with skin purifying Eucalyptus to keep your complexion fresh all day.

One thing that all of our 100% PURE® natural foundations have in common is that each formula is healthy, good for your skin, and full of beneficial nutrients. Instead of allowing dozens of synthetic, industrial grade dyes to infiltrate your skin, we choose to use a blend of fruits, vegetables, and cocoa to nourish and deposit natural, flawless pigmentation. By using our patented fruit pigment method, we ensure that all of our natural foundation formulas are both gentle and safe for skin, with the added bonus of instilling plenty of naturally occurring vitamins and nutrients into skin.

Always free of artificial fragrances, chemical preservatives, synthetic dyes and thousands of toxins found in most other cosmetics, we proudly offer a wide range of vegan, natural foundations that not only impress with their ingredients, but their results, too. Below, we’ve laid out an easy-to-follow guide to each and every foundation line we offer, to make your switch to healthy fruit pigments a breeze.

Contains anti-aging vitamins and antioxidants, skin purifying eucalyptus, soothing calendula, chamomile, and rose, and oil absorbing rice powder. Use alone or over our tinted moisturizer.

Cream foundation glides on effortlessly, blends well, and gives medium to full coverage with a glow. Formula colored from fruit, vegetable, and seed pigments for antioxidant protection.

PRO TIP: Apply with a damp Makeup Blender for a flawless airbrushed finish. Pat the damp beauty sponge into the cream foundation and pressed onto skin in a dabbing motion, until desired coverage is achieved. We find that with this particularly creamy formula, dabbing works better than swiping across the skin.

2nd Skin Foundations Swatch

 

This foundation is aptly named “2nd Skin” because of its lightweight, barely-there feeling on skin. The formula contains olive squalane, which is similar to the skin’s own natural oils. This natural foundation’s formula helps to plump skin to diminish appearance of fine lines, and contains the skin-nourishing vitamins and antioxidants found in fruit and vegetable pigments.

PRO TIP: Olive squalane acts as a primer, so no additional primer is needed. This ultra thin formula is dispensed through a pipette: we recommend dispensing a few drops onto back of the hand, then dabbing onto face with preferred brush, Makeup Blender, or fingers. Add drops and blend as needed to achieve desired coverage.

Great for flakey or dry skin, our creamy and nourishing BB Cream will not accentuate fine lines or wrinkles. It helps to cover lines, scars, and provide SPF 15 coverage to protect skin from sun’s UVA and UVB rays. Gives you a glowing, flawless, and illuminated complexion.

This natural foundation formula is enriched with antioxidant packed super fruits, vitamins and other skin nourishing nutrients, and has a liquid to matte powder finish to make your skin velvet soft. Colored from the pigments of fruits and vegetables rather than being colored from minerals or synthetic dyes.

PRO TIP: Because it dries fast, we recommend applying this foundation in sections. Use a Cruelty Free Flat Kabuki Brush F40, Makeup Blender or your fingers to apply.

Why is Natural Foundation Better than Conventional Foundation?

When formulating our various collections of natural foundations, we took into account that whatever is applied to skin will eventually be absorbed into our body. Since foundation is one of the cosmetics that most wear all day, we made sure to avoid use of harsh chemicals, synthetic preservatives, fragrances, talc, aluminum, and the many other unhealthy toxins found in common foundations. 100% PURE uses healthy, antioxidant rich pigments of Cocoa, Peaches, Goji Berries, and other nutrient dense plant or mineral pigments, instead of the commonly used FD&C/Lake colorants like Red Dye #40, Blue Dye #6, etc.; all of which can contain unhealthy heavy metals such as lead, arsenic, cadmium, mercury and more.

In addition to a safe and toxin-free foundation, you’ll get the added benefits of receiving skin friendly nutrients to improve your complexion: all found in the healthy butters, oils, vegetables, and fruit pigments in our formulas. You should never have to sacrifice high performance for health, and that’s why 100% PURE offers you both: healthy foundations with organic ingredients to give you beautiful, flawless looking skin. Now that’s what we call high performance foundation!
