what it is and why it's wonderful for your skin

Mineral makeup is one of the hottest trends in makeup today. Women everywhere are discovering the unique benefits of mineral makeup: it feels wonderfully smooth and light as though you're not wearing makeup at all, it conceals blemishes and imperfections almost magically, and it's gentle on sensitive or acne-prone skin 
But what exactly IS mineral makeup? Simply put, the term "mineral makeup" refers to cosmetics made from pure, finely-ground minerals such as mica, titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, and iron oxides.

However, it is important to choose the right brand of mineral makeup. The main appeal of mineral makeup is that it is all-natural, made from pure minerals, free of the chemicals, preservatives, or dyes found in traditional makeup. But some companies put out lines of so-called "mineral makeup" that DO contains chemicals and preservatives such as bismuth oxychloride, propylparaben, and methylparaben. These cosmetics technically can be called "mineral makeup" because they are made from minerals, but all the chemical additives can irritate the skin or cause breakouts, which defeats the entire point of mineral makeup: to provide a smooth, light cosmetic that is all-natural and gentle on the skin.

One of the best brands of mineral makeup is Mineral Hygienics. Unlike so many others, Mineral Hygienics does NOT use any harmful additives, chemicals, or preservatives. If you look at the ingredients of Mineral Hygienics cosmetics, you will see titanium dioxide, iron oxides, zinc oxide, and mica...and nothing else! No harsh chemicals or additives, just pure, natural minerals that are safe and gentle on the skin.

This makes Mineral Hygienics especially beneficial for people with sensitive skin or skin that is prone to acne breakouts. Mineral Hygienics feels soft, smooth and light on the skin and conceals imperfections and acne, and it's all-natural ingredients will not exacerbate acne or cause any irritation or itchiness. It's the most comfortable, gentle, and safe mineral makeup ever...and it will make you look fantastic!
