Organic Stick Foundation

Breakdown

2 ingredients to avoid

Zao Organic Stick Foundation scores 19/100 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.

Zao Organic Stick Foundation lists 29 ingredients, starting with Octyldodecanol, Silica, Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil, Jojoba and Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 19/100 Zao Organic Stick Foundation scores worse than most foundation & concealer we have scored. A higher-scoring option in foundation & concealer is RMS Beauty UnPowder Untinted at 96/100.
