Mary Kay


"Enriching Women's Lives" is the slogan Mary Kay uses to draw it's users in. Mary Kay is a consistent make up brand and tends to be directed toward older women and some younger adults. I, personally, do not know many teenagers who use Mary Kay as their main brand for make up.

Like many other companies Mary Kay does not do animal testing and even had many animal rights groups that she pushed in 1989. Mary Kay's ingredients were difficult to find and narrow down. The bulk of them though, Talc , Zea Mays (Corn) Starch, Zinc Stearate, Dimethicone, Boron Nitride, Zeolite, Methylparaben, Sorbic Acid, Ethylene/Methacrylate Copolymer, Propylparaben, Tetrasodium EDTA, Isopropyl Titanium Triisostearate, BHT, Iron Oxides, Mica, did not seem like they would hurt the environment. Mary Kay has a few foundations and seems to be doing her part with the environement!
She is open to Q&A on her website if you're interested in knowing more.

  2. Yeah, I agree, It's great that they don't test on animals! Also, yeah, I don't know of really anyone our age that uses MaryKay, it does seem like it's more for older women.
