Review: Manic Panic Supernatural Pressed Powder

UPDATE: This line has been discontinued.

There are many different niche groups of vegans, one of which being the stereotypical punk rock/tattooed type. While I have no tattoos and prefer classical music to rock, there are still many vegans who want fun and colorful makeup choices. Manic Panic is a fun company that has a rock star style and is 100% vegan and cruelty-free. Below is a review for their pressed powder; I tried Anemic.

Pros:

• Smooth application
• Cuts shine and absorbs oil
• Stylish packaging
• Anemic color was a good match for my fair skin
• Comes in a nice compact
• Affordable
  

Cons:

• Contains parabens

Summary:
I am always happy to see vegan companies, especially those like Manic Panic who offer fun colors that are hard to find in many natural brands. However, I was disappointed to see that they use some ingredients, such as parabens, that give them a fairly high rating of 5 on EWG's Skin Deep database. I turned to eco-friendly and vegan makeup for multiple reasons, including to find makeup that is both cruelty-free and safer for myself and my clients. While I enjoyed the performance of this product and affordable prices, I would love to see the line improved to make it even safer. Regardless, if you are looking to switch to vegan makeup and are in search of a certain niche product, Manic Panic could be a good line to check.

Also available on Amazon.com.
