Currently, one of the most popular trends in makeup is mineral makeup. Over the past few years, it has become more sought after, even though the concept has been around for over thirty years. The makeup consists of natural minerals from the earth. The most popular items have been loose powder foundations and blushes.
As consumers, we must beware of false advertisers trying to make money off of this hot trend. Not all mineral makeup is created equal. Companies can market any makeup that contains minerals as a natural product. But if the product isnt all pure minerals, you probably wont get the best results and risk irritation to the skin.
Ive been using a loose powder foundation for over a year now and have loved the change from traditional foundation. All natural products claim that their ingredients are better for your skin than regular makeup. There are a few doctors that disagree with this statement, but for the most part, doctors back it up. I can only go by my own experience which has been fantastic. The powder has a more natural look and it doesnt cause my skin to break out ever like other foundations did.
Of course, if the ingredients arent all natural, then there may be irritation to the skin. Dont be fooled just because the product claims to all mineral. The way to be sure is to read the label for ingredients. Be on the lookout for anything that is synthetic like a dye, chemical, or some kind of preservative. Youll especially want to watch out for Bismuth Oxychloride. It is considered to be a mineral, so many try to pass off their makeup as being pure mineral, but it is not a natural one found in the earth. Doctors report that it can be a skin irritant and can cause rashes and itching.
The nice thing about the coverage is that you have control over how heavy you want it to be. It can be applied heavily, without looking thick or clumpy. This is really beneficial for women with acne or scarring. The coverage also lasts a long time so you wont have to worry about it wearing off throughout the day.
It also offers SPF protection from the suns harmful rays. When it comes to protecting your skin from the sun, you can never do too much. I use both a lotion with SPF protection and the loose powder. Together they protect my skin from getting early wrinkles and sunspots.
I've experienced such a drastic improvement from my traditional foundation by using mineral makeup. I would definitely give it a try and see what you think for yourself. You may find that you love it as much as I do! - 16036
