What I Like
Built on nourishing botanical oils and butters — jojoba, meadowfoam, mango, macadamia, and shea — which help support the delicate eye area
Mineral pigment base avoids synthetic dyes and harsh film-formers
Creamy glide that allows for both precise lines and softer definition
Vitamin E adds antioxidant support for the skin around the eyes
Aligns well with a low-tox makeup routine
EWG Rating: 2 — in the low-hazard range
Things to Keep in Mind
Because it’s richer in oils and butters, it may smudge more easily on oily lids or in humid conditions — setting with shadow can help
Mineral pigments and mica may highlight texture on very dry or mature eyelids
As with all eye-area products, patch testing is helpful if you’re prone to irritation
Sensitive Skin & Pregnancy Considerations
Jojoba, meadowfoam, mango seed oil, macadamia seed oil, shea butter, candelilla wax, and carnauba wax are widely considered low risk for topical cosmetic use during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Caprylic/capric triglyceride, silica, tocopherol (vitamin E), and ascorbyl palmitate are commonly used cosmetic ingredients and generally viewed as pregnancy-compatible.
Mineral pigments (iron oxides, titanium dioxide, mica) are considered low risk when used in pressed or pencil formats, where inhalation exposure is minimal.
