"Mineral make up" is inspired by bare mineral and inorganic pigments that exist in nature. Many combinations of these colored minerals, such as mica, titanium dioxide, zinc and iron oxides, and ultramarine pigments, can be created to make every cosmetic from foundation to eye shadow to shimmer powder for the body.



Naked mineral is full of benefits. A seriously special feature is its all day coverage - you can relax knowing you look your best. Sensitive skin is not irritated, the ingredients are pure and healthy, and it feels wonderful while helping you look your most naturally beautiful.

As with any makeup product, mineral make has both fans and detractors. Those who are fans like it because it is light, natural, and long lasting. Those who don't say that it irritates and dries out the skin, as well as accelerating the development of wrinkles and skin aging. Others say that there is an undertone to the colors that is ashy, which is not good for certain ethnic skin types. Beside all of these claims, though, many are drawn to mineral make up for the first time because of all that they hear about its claims for good skin health. These claims state more specifically that the purity of the formulations is better for sensitive, and even acne or rosacea prone, skin types.

Mineral make-up is a natural, less harsh makeup for your skin. Skin naturally does not take well to chemicals or "traditional" make-up due to all the chemicals added in. Mineral makeup is the best fit for skin as a make-up because it does not contain any chemicals or preservatives, and has an added benefit not to aggravate skin, acne or other skin conditions.

The base ingredients for this makeup are Titanium and zinc oxide, which are both naturally occurring. They are not combined with any dubious ingredients which normally are found in many of the make-ups. A sun protection of SPF 15 is provided by these oxides. Zinc oxide has anti-inflammatory properties and this is ideal for conditions such as acne. The skin gets healed if worn after cosmetic surgery or abrasive facial treatments.

Mineral makeup was unveiled thirty years ago. Today, it continues to dominate the fashion, film and cosmetic businesses. It is the newest addition to a developing beauty culture designed to improve our lifestyles. The secret to flawless application is to lightly buff the makeup on the skin surface for approximately two minutes. By doing this, you can achieve a completely natural and perfect application.
