If you want the appearance of silky, smooth, airbrushed skin, Afterglow Cosmetics should be your makeup of choice. From the time we opened our sample packages and felt the luxurious softness of the Mini Kabuki brush, to the time we swept the gorgeous shade of blush across our cheeks, we knew we were in love!
This isn’t your typical mineral makeup, friends. Afterglow brings superb quality with organic-infused, highly pigmented color palettes made with natural and certified-organic, bio-active botanicals. Their products are free of many of the synthetic preservatives, bismuth oxychloride, petro-chemicals, synthetic dyes, and fillers found in traditional cosmetics. The packaging is streamlined and chic–a perfect accompaniment to other cosmetics you may own. However, after you try Afterglow, we dare you to return to those “other” brands.
Here are our reactions to the Afterglow Cosmetics line:
Amanda: “I just LOVE the brushes, they are so soft. I always thought a brush was a brush until I tried the brushes
from Afterglow – I was so wrong before! It covers amazingly well, almost like being airbrushed.”
Sarah: “The blush is extremely concentrated, which is a good thing, but make sure to use a light hand when applying!” “The lip moisturizer is AWESOME for the winter months–keeps lips soft and smooth.”
Gretchen: “The Organic Lip Love Lipstick (in Lovely) is the perfect shade for everyone. It’s a great everyday shade, but works beautifully in an evening look, as well.”
And Amanda loved Afterglow Cosmetic’s Organic Mineral Foundation and Pure Soul Mascara so much that she now requests these items as gifts from her husband! She swears by the even, decadent coverage of the foundation and the way the mascara provides an enhanced, natural look.
As if we couldn’t love Afterglow enough, we are pleased to note that they are signers of The Breast Cancer Fund’s “Compact for Safe Cosmetics,” sponsored by The Campaign for Safe Cosmetics. Afterglow also works with Young Survival Coalition to help support women under 40 with breast cancer.

I absolutely loves the article entitled, “Natural Stomach Soothers”. This article goes into depth on the best current natural, at-home remedies for digestive problems, such as, heartburn, acid reflux, and nausea. As someone who suffers from a number of digest aliments, I greatly appreciated this article.
