Dear Melanie,


I recently received DaLish as a Christmas gift, and I LOVE IT! A lot of my current make-up includes an SPF and I was wondering why your products don’t include them?
Thanks! - Rebecca - Toronto, Ontario

Dear Rebecca,
I have not included an SPF as part of the DaLish line because when it is mixed directly with make-up the sun-blocking effect can decrease. I strongly believe that an SPF should be used on it’s own, as a foundation, before applying your regular make-up. This assures you the optimal effects from the SPF.
Thanks and stay fabulous!
Melanie

Dear Melanie,


I am a vegetarian who is always struggling to find a product line that is suitable for my lifestyle. I know that your products are PETA approved, which is great, but are they made with any animal products or by-products? Please help! Kelly - Niagara Falls, Ontario

Dear Kelly,
All DaLish products are cruelty-free and made with no animal products or by-products. My product line was approved by PETA as Vegetarian-friendly, although my mascara and eyeliner both contain beeswax which may not be suitable for some vegans.
Thanks for living a cruelty-free lifestyle and stay fabulous!
Melanie
