Ah fall… Crisp, cool air, changing leaves, and the perfect time to go shopping! I am generally a spring/summer person, but one of the things I look forward to the most when fall starts coming around is being able to give myself the excuse to spruce up my wardrobe and my makeup. Back to school shopping of sorts… It is a great time to buy a little something for myself, before all the holiday shopping begins and I have to start thinking about what I will buy for others. One of the things that I like to buy the most to give me an instant pick-me-up is a new lipstick. It can change your entire look for the day, is relatively inexpensive, and it’s fun to try on all of the different colors before picking your favorite one. I love makeup in general, but I especially like a fresh new lipstick. I do, however, want it to be a lipstick without lead or any other toxic ingredients. Below are my top picks for the best nontoxic lipstick for fall.

Best Nontoxic Lipstick Brands and Colors for Fall
All of these nontoxic lipsticks below come from clean beauty companies that strive for products without toxic chemicals. They all have low ratings on the Environmental Working Group’s Skin Deep Cosmetics Database as well.
Clean Red Lipstick
Red lipstick is a classic, especially for fall and going into winter. When wearing red, try to go with the undertones of your skin. If you have a warmer complexion, go with a shade of red that has more golden or orange undertones. If you lean towards the cool skin tones, go with a more blue based red.
Clean Sandy Mauve Pink Lipstick
Pink, but toned down and dusty with a little more purple for fall. This is a perfect everyday shade that can work well for the office, or for date night. Look for shades that stay away from being bright or extra glossy for fall.
Clean Plum Lipstick
There is not a lipstick shade out there that says fall more than a deep plum color. It is a dramatic look that is usually a very sophisticated show stopper. Finding this shade in a nontoxic or organic lipstick is a big bonus.
Clean Rose Lipstick
Rose is an all-around universal color for most people. Lean towards the brownish rose hues and you are right on trend for fall.
Clean Berry Lipstick
Berry colored lipstick is synonymous with fall. Look for a medium purple with a hint of red or that reads more neutral.
By choosing a “safe lipstick”, it can make you feel like you are limiting your choices or can’t stay up with the trends. With all of the clean beauty brands out there now, you don’t have to choose between your health and beauty. By choosing a nontoxic lipstick, you can up your lip game, while also keeping the chemicals at bay.
