I don't know anything about this brand, but I would be leary of wearing anything with this many chemicals in it. That's why I switched to mineral makeup, to get rid of all the words I couldn't pronounce & didn't know why they were there. I don't wear anything unless I understand every ingredient. I wear kt Naturals. a year or so ago I tried a mineral makeup from Walgreens & hated it. It had a strong fragrance & irritated my skin.
