Santana Row is my go-to place when I need to do some window shopping and browsing all the wonderful stores. 100% Pure is always a brand that has caught my eye, I walked in there a couple of times only to swatch a few things on my hand here and there. But it was only when I was invited to a blogger party at the store itself, where I learned a little more about the brand.
100% Pure cosmetics is an all natural, cruelty free, vegan makeup store local to San Jose — but is sold all over. I only know this because I searched a few hashtags on Instagram and found out that Canadians are lovin’ it too. And rightfully so, considering their makeup is on par with a lot of brands I am familar with. As someone who doesn’t stray too far off my regular skincare regime, I’m excited to hear that 100% pure products aim to give your skin its maximum benefits, without irritating any skin type.
Plus. Free shipping. Always. No minimum. Uh, bonus. So, I’m show-casing a couple of my favourite products from them today, introducing you to them in case you too are new to the brand like I was.
This is their new line of fruit pigmented lip colours. Yep, you read that right. Kind of unbelieveable to think about. But look how moisturizing they look like they’d feel on your lips! Those swatches though.Â
Here’s their creamsticks. Yes it’s a cream product and it’ll glide onto your forearm easily. But it did require a bit of work (especially with naked glimmer) to build up some colour onto the lid. Easy fix for that is apply a primer over top to make them more vibrant on the lid.Â
6 shimmery eye creamsticks. Which colour is your favourite? I love naked glimmer, and egg plant. But forest is a beauty colour too.
After wearing three of the 6 shades of eye creamsticks I am pleasantly surprised to tell you that they do not crease on the eyes! Stay tuned for Tuesday’s blog post where I do a complete makeup look using all the products shown below.
Shop 100% Pure makeup, skin + body care, hair, baby products and nail products, and get free shipping with no minimum purchase.

I have to admit I don’t wear any makeup or lip stick, but all my friends do! I like keeping up with new products like these to discuss with them when we get together! I like the dragon fruit color and I like how you put it on your skin to show what each one looked like!
@Joanne T Ferguson: Thanks! I try and swatch them on my arms so others know how they look onto the skin instead of just in the tube.

I am obsessed with lipsticks especially if they’re the moisturizing kind because they not only provide a rich color to the lips but also a healthy glow. The swatches of the shimmery eye creamsticks also looked wonderful. I don’t know which one to choose!
I don’t wear lipstick at all but these are some nice products. I know they have an instagram challenge going on for makeup and I am starting to get interested in them just a little. Lip gloss though….I love them

@Kita: Well good thing these are more like lip glosses than lipsticks! You should give ’em a try :)

I’m not a makeup girl, but I’m trying to start wearing more lipsticks. I love lipgloss and have way too many! But as I get older, I start to think that I need to start experimenting more with lipstick. Thanks for the review!

Loving all of the colors. My favorite for the lips is cake and light for the eyes. They look like they give off a lot of color, which is always a bonus! I might have to pick some of these up.

I love the colors! I am not a makeup girl, but I love lipsticks. These are fabulous colors and I would love to try them. The eye creamsticks look awesome, too. My daughter would love these colors.
I have never seen eye cream sticks like this before!! I love how sleek the containers look for putting in your purse. Excited to see your full make up put together looks as a final product.

Those eye shades are gorgeous. My favorite eye colors to wear are the more natural variety because I feel like they are the most versatile. You can make them deep or light and they adjust to all skintones and situations.

I am not familiar with 100% Pure cosmetics, I will have to check out their website, I like that dragon fruit color for the lips! Where is Santana Row by the way?
Tracy @ Ascending Butterfly recently posted..So how awesome was getting a sneak peek of @Grandfathered and meeting @PortableShua during #BlogHer15, this awesome!
I love those colors! I have really sensitive skin so I have to be careful with what I use. Especially with foundation, since I can easily breakout. This brand looks like it would be a great option so I’ll definitely have to check it out. Thanks so much for sharing your opinion!
I must say, I am not familiar with the 100% Pure Cosmetics brand, I like the concept that stands behind it. Hello there cute lipsticks! Did I just read right – fruit pigmented lip colours? Now, that is something that the lipstick addict inside me would absolutely looove to try. I love those colors! How long do they last?
P.S.: Is that the Sonia Kashuk bronzer that you’ve mentioned on my blog? Now I am curious to see it “in action”.
Hugs,
Rally

SUPER interested in the Vino lip color and the ecru glimmer and naked glimmer eye colors! How did you like those ones?
Sheena recently posted..Saying goodbye to the Brooks Fanatics program
@Sheena: Honestly, the naked glimmer is my favourite out of them all (I prefer little to no eye makeup, and this adds a touch of goldish tones to the lids, which is nice). Vino lip colour … well, they’re all lipbalmy-feeling on the lips, and go on with subtle colour. So they’re nice to apply because you can cart’em around & apply them without a mirror. You can see a makeup look I did here with it: http://www.spiffykerms.com/2015/08/makeup-of-the-day-100-pure/
Nancy recently posted..Go ahead, let them think you were Born This Way
@Nancy: Awesome! I’m all about subtle eyes as well, as I don’t like to wear a ton of make-up. I might have to check these out!
