Help! I’m allergic to make-up

**I am writing to you in sheer desperation, hoping you can help me in my search for make-up that does not contain Titanium Dioxide which appears to be either a major or minor ingredient in every foundation, eye-shadow, eye pencil, concealer and powder on the market, not to mention sun screens!

Unfortunately for me, I suddenly developed an allergy to Titanium Dioxide about 18 months ago after using a foundation that contained a very high concentration of it and now cannot use even those products I was previously able to use. I develop severe allergic conjunctivitis within 24 hours of using any products with Titanium Dioxide in them. It’s very painful and gets worse with each exposure so I can no longer afford the luxury of “try it and see what happens”.
