The Nude Lip: 8 Non-Toxic Glosses, Balms + Lipsticks To Be Grateful For

In our book, going au naturel doesn’t necessarily mean a natural look. What matters to us is that the powders, creams and colors we’re throwing on our face are natural in the sense that they’re green, non-toxic, and totally safe.
