UNE Natural Beauty

I've noticed UNE Natural Beauty products in pharmacies on more than one occasion when in France and Italy.  I took the plunge and purchased a tube of Lip-Toned lip color while recently in Avignon, France. I have to say I'm quite amoureuse with this lipstick. It glides on beautifully, feels great on the lips (not too sticky, but just moist enough) and lasts about 3-4 hours if you're not eating/drinking. The color L09 is fab. It’s a very neutral red. It's a great every day color that would suit lots of different skin tones. I now carry it around in my handbag and reapply regularly throughout the day

In terms of green beauty cred, the package boasts an ECOCERT, 21.82% of ingredients from organic farming (good but not great), and 100% of ingredients from natural origin (ok what the devil does that mean?!)   I couldn’t find any ingredient lists on the website, or even any info on the lipsticks so it’s a bit of a mystère as to the contents of this product.

It's always a difficult balance finding a high performing product that has equally high eco quotient.  Since I can’t comment on the latter and already told you about the former, then I’ll leave you with this quote from the UNE website:

“I am natural.  I don’t hide behind a thick layer of make-up that absorbs my personality.  I want a make-up which enhances my natural beauty without concealing it.”

I can really dig it since I don’t wear a lot of makeup.  When I actually do, I want a natural look.
