MEGA BeautyCon 2024: Acing the Clean Beauty Trend with barenbliss

By

Brands are throwing around the term clean beauty, but what does it truly mean? Clean makeup MVP barenbliss answered this question and more at this year’s MEGA BeautyCon

Makeup is a powerful tool in shaping up one’s identity. However, with the amount of products available in the market, young and impressionable beauty enthusiasts tend to have trouble filtering out the good from the bad. So where do they begin? At the MEGA BeautyCon 2024, clean makeup brand barenbliss broke down a simple beauty principle: perfecting your makeup starts with healthy skin. Here’s how.

Defining Clean Beauty

“Teenagers or young people in general, they usually use makeup to cover up their blemishes and acne,” barenbliss brand manager Zot Brillo stated during the brand’s segment during the program. 

Beauty content creator Joselle Alandy joined him on stage, sharing that despite makeup’s ability to enhance your uniqueness, looking and feeling good about your skin is still the secret to unlocking confidence. Afterall, your makeup base is only as good as your skin.

This is where clean beauty comes into the equation. While its definition is constantly changing, barenbliss believes that being clean means adopting a vegan, cruelty-free, and non-toxic formula for all their products. Whereas most makeup in the market are heavy and tend to be comedogenic, barenbliss remains gentle on sensitive skin–leading to less breakouts. 

“We at barenbliss, we’re a brand that is not only looking at covering imperfections to enhance your beauty, we are also here to nurture the skin,” Brillo added.

There’s also the Lily Makes Luminous Glow Tint, an alcohol-free lip tint that repairs the skin.

Those who were unable to secure a prize still had fun testing the rest of barenbliss’ hero products like the 6-in-1 Foundation Stick–a lightweight non-comedogenic base–and the Moist Mochi Paste Powder Blush, which has a buttery soft consistency and melts into the skin. Attendees were pleasantly surprised at how easy the products were to use.
