WILMINGTON, NC (WECT) – Your makeup is probably toxic to
some degree, even if you buy mineral makeup.
Kristen Campbell is a small business owner with a big
dream. She says she was tired of using
makeup that wasn't good for her face.
She was also tired of buying makeup that seemed cakey and heavy.
"Everyone has their thing
in life that they're obsessed with," said Campbell. "And this is my thing."
Campbell has spent a long
time working with the right group of suppliers she says to create the makeup
line, Intuitive Color. She wanted to create a makeup that didn't
have the ingredients like zinc oxide or titanium dioxide. Although those are things found in common
items, Campbell said she didn't want to be expose herself further.
"Whether it's a natural makeup, a mineral
makeup or something you buy at the department store, they all have zinc oxide
or titanium dioxide. It's the base of
all makeup," said Campbell.
Campbell now creates makeup with three major
ingredients: mango butter, jojoba esters
and sea buckthorn oil. It is 100-percent
vegan, gluten-free, cruelty-free and no animal testing, she adds.
Celebrities like Courteney Cox and Denise
Richards have even used Intuitive Color.
She also launched an Indiegogo campaign to
help her raise money. Campbell says
there isn't anyone else who makes makeup the way she does.
"I want to revolutionize makeup," she said.
