jane iredale - THE SKIN CARE MAKEUP has been a tremendous supporter of this campaign with both major funding and in-kind product donations for many of our "Green Spa" events. Their willingness to help create awareness around safer choices has been a terrific boost to our outreach efforts. We are thrilled to be in a partnership with Iredale. Jane Iredale introduced her unique skin care makeup line in May of 1994. It was the first full makeup line on the market to offer not just color enhancement but also benefits to the skin. The products are based on micronized minerals and are made without fillers and binders (such as talc and mineral oil) and without chemical dyes or preservatives.
