The philosophy of Parenzano Cosmetics is a simple one: to develop high integrity products that are pure and natural; have the elegance, feel and color selection of prestige cosmetics; and are healthy for the consumer and environment. It is with this thought in mind that Paula Parenzano offers Lip Pearls, an all-natural line of lip gloss in six shimmering shades inspired by the ocean.

Throughout her many years in the beauty industry, Paula has consistently found that prestige cosmetics offer the most trend-setting and up-to-date colors, but don't exactly have the most beneficial ingredients. And while natural cosmetics provide a healthier alternative, the colors they offer are less than contemporary. One common thread found in almost all lip gloss, whether in the natural or prestige markets, is a petroleum derived ingredient by the name of polybutene. This ingredient is widely used in lip products as a plasticizer and to create the tacky feeling associated with most gloss. A few recent studies also suggest that polybutene may be a potential formaldehyde donor. Because of this, Paula was determined to create a fabulous lip gloss without polybutene. Her philosophy being that to make truly healthy cosmetics--especially for the lips--only the most wholesome ingredients should be used. To put it in perspective, the average woman consumes approximately four to six pounds of lip products per year. So whatever you put on your lips goes in your body. With Lip Pearls you're guaranteed natural mineral derived colors, nutrient-rich moisturizing plant and vegetable oils, no artificial flavors, and never any petroleum, mineral oil, or formaldehyde derived ingredients. Finally, naturally beautiful healthy lips are yours.
