Common questions

Is Merle Norman Eye Shadow Base healthy?

Merle Norman Eye Shadow Base scores 15/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

What is in Merle Norman Eye Shadow Base?

Merle Norman Eye Shadow Base lists 21 ingredients, starting with Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil, Titanium Dioxide (Ci 77891), Candelilla Cera (Euphorbia Cerifera Wax) and Kaolin. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does Merle Norman Eye Shadow Base contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in Merle Norman Eye Shadow Base’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".

How processed is Merle Norman Eye Shadow Base?

Merle Norman Eye Shadow Base has no NOVA group. Tallow works NOVA out from the ingredient list, and it does not apply to supplements or non-food products; a food whose ingredients are not all classified yet stays unknown instead of being guessed. Either way the processing axis scores it neutrally.

How does Merle Norman Eye Shadow Base compare to other eyeshadow?
