If you're trying to transition to a natural makeup routine, I highly recommend starting with a natural foundation. Here's my thought process: Foundation covers your entire face and most people wear it everyday, unlike, say mascara or lipstick.

That said, it isn't always easy to find a natural foundation that works as well as the conventional kind, so I did a ton of testing and swatching to bring you this list of the 12 best natural foundations. Each one is made without potentially questionable ingredients, like parabens, phthalates, petrolatum, or talc, and honestly works just as well as whatever foundation you're currently using.
