The Clean-Makeup Challenge: The Results Are In! (And We Have a Winner)
Bunch of stunners, no? Thanks to all of you who submitted pictures. We see lots of red lips, pretty eyes and great liner—among other things—and most of all, we have the proof we were looking for that naturals can be JUST as glam as conventionals, without any of the tradeoffs. Here, your many lovely mugs. And the winner is……. Rebekah Meyer, from Caldwell, Idaho!!!!! Big congrats Rebekah, we will email you with details.

WOW!! Such amazing, glamorous, clean, green beauties! I’m so proud this moment has arrived. I spent my life dreaming of better, more natural, non-toxic, ethical beauty products that WORKED. Clearly my dream has come true. Love you all! xo Spirit
Yay, I won! Thanks ladies! And everyone looks so beautiful in their pictures, just as pretty as regular makeup! Thanks for this challenge, it was so fun!
Amen, Spirit. I’m a cornball anyway, but these pictures got me so excited. Love the enthusiasm, love the faces, love the movement! You all are beauties.
Awww beautiful ladies and I’m so proud to have been one of them! Congratulations to the winner:-)
Congrats Beka! And I’m with Spirit and Siobhan—it’s so cool to see all of you ladies in your natch makeup. We’re at the start of something special!
