What's a good cruelty-free makeup for sensitive skin?

If the ingredients are more natural as well, all the better. The cruelty-free and safe for sensitive skin, however, are musts. I don't wear heavy makeup and am mainly looking for a subtle one to smooth out the skin tone on my face. Not really interested in eye shadow, lipstick, mascara, etc.

If skin type helps: I have very fair, sensitive skin. My main issues are inconsistencies in color on my cheeks (since I'm pale, and minor changes are more evident) and darkness under and inside my eyes. The skin on my nose has a tendency to get flaky, but I also can get excess oil sometimes. I burn instead of tan.

Update:

Should probably clarify, too..

I was looking at a couple brands like Afterglow, Urban Decay, etc. Afterglow looked good, except a lot of people complained that they actually reacted to it, and I saw a lot of issues on Urban Decay with their tones not going pale enough. Comments/input on that are welcome, as well as individual products within brands you recommend. Thanks!

    Urban Decay is my favourite makeup brand and they don't test on animals, and a lot of their products are vegan. ELF is also cruelty free and their products are very cheap too. The Body Shop is a good place to get cruelty free makeup that is natural, but while the Body Shop doesn't test on animals, it's parent company L'Oreal does...
