    Jane Iredale is really one of the first when it comes to the concept of clean beauty." Jane Iredale saw first-hand how the typical makeup you buy at the stores could negatively affect your skin health and set out to make a change.
    As a casting director and producer, Jane worked closely with actors and helped create a cleaner makeup knowing that they often struggled with heavy makeup and the detrimental effects of it.

    Jane started formulating a nourishing Loose Mineral Powder which was immediately loved by skin professionals. Dermatologists and plastics surgeons praised its ability to soothe, cover and protect, and consumers loved that it didn't feel like the typical makeup. Free of irritants and, perhaps more importantly, carefully crafted with skin-boosting ingredients, Jane Iredale's line is still popular today.

    Apple extract is a rich source of antioxidants that enhance skin health by scavenging free radicals that can damage skin cells [1]. Its powerful nutrient profile also helps maintain youthful skin elasticity as individuals age, while its mildly acidic properties make it a gentle exfoliator that helps the skin feel softer [1]. Coconut supports moisture retention on dry, irritated skin and it helps targets abnormal inflammatory responses that disrupt skin health [2,3]. In addition, coconut contains healthy saturated fats that nourish and moisturize the skin. It also contains lauric acid, which has been shown to target harmful invaders [4]. Royal jelly has antioxidant, hydrating, and skin pigmentation lowering properties. This helps target dark spots, dull skin, or sagging due to acne, age, or UV exposure [5]. Royal jelly also influences the production of an oily substance called sebum, which helps balance skin complexion [5]. Furthermore, it is a strong moisturizer that heightens hydration in the outer layer of the skin by helping it retain water [5]. Zinc supports skin health by promoting natural cleansing of the pores and it also reinforces healthier inflammatory responses in the skin [6]. Aloe, citrus, and tocopherol help restore and maintain a healthy skin barrier by reinforcing healthy inflammatory responses [7,8].
