Mineral makeup has really taken off in the past twenty years. At first, everyone was skeptical about a makeup that claimed to provide so many benefits in one jar. This article discusses some of the health and beauty benefits of wearing mineral makeup you might not have known.
Mineral makeup comes with claims that they work for all skin tones and skin types. The mineral makeup hides is supposed to hide imperfections and help women put forth their best face possibleand with the growing popularity of mineral makeup, it seems it's doing just that.
Even though the powder looks much like other foundational makeup at first glance, a deeper look reveals that mineral makeup is quite different from the run of the mill makeup we are used to putting on. Mineral makeup is made up of just that-minerals and not filler.
The minerals that are the basis of most mineral cosmetics are:
Mica powder Iron oxides (adds color) Titanium dioxide
Natural minerals in the makeup cause fewer skin reactions than traditional makeup. The minerals in the makeup are sold as a powder for easier application and so less is used. Fillers and other added chemicals can clog the pores, but these natural minerals do not.
Furthermore, most makeup cakes after prolonged wear. Many foundations show streaks when we become overheated and begin to perspire. No one wants to have their makeup run. When it cakes, it is easier to see fine lines and wrinkles in our skin. What a mess!
With natural mineral makeup, that is not a problem. Only a small amount of the mineral powder is applied to the face for all over coverage. The use of a Kabuki brush allows for quick and complete coverage for all skin types and tones.
Mineral makeup has several benefits:
Hides lines and wrinkles Goes on easy and stays smooth in hot weather Light coverage Works for all skin tones Provides a natural glow (comes from the bismuth oxychloride)
Do you have sensitive skin? Does your makeup protect you from the rays of the sun? According to a featured article on WebMD entitled The Lowdown on Mineral Makeup, the titanium dioxide and iron oxide act as a natural sunscreen in the makeup. Both of these minerals are found in many sunscreen products.
Mineral makeup will theoretically last as long as you need it to. The minerals in it are inorganic and there is no moisture so bacterial growth is not a problem like it is in other cosmetics. As a precaution always pour powder into another container before applying and wash the Kabuki brush often. - 15275
