Your makeup should be as sophisticated, healthy and natural as you are, so why aren't you using mineral makeup yet? If you value the health of your skin and prefer a natural glow to a chemical shine, mineral makeup should be in your future!
Great for Sensitive Skin!
If your skin ever gets red or dry or itchy when you wear makeup, then it totally defeats the point. Makeup is supposed to make you feel beautiful and that's hard to do when you're dealing with acne, allergies and clogged pores! Mineral makeup will nourish and soothe sensitive skin and because it contains no perfumes, alcohol, dyes or mineral oils, it's guaranteed to be as gentle as a kitten on your sensitive skin.
Better Skin Care
The metals used in mineral makeup rejuvenate and relax your skin, firming it up and making your skin look healthy as can be. The minerals in mineral makeup include zinc, titanium, gold and magnesium, all materials traditionally used in spas to soothe your skin. The minerals not only make sure that your skin doesn't get oversensitive, but it'll also keep block the sun from damaging the delicate skin of your face. Damage from the sun is the number one thing that makes skin look old, so let your mineral makeup do its work!
Light and Soft
By the time you've left high school, you've probably had some experience with "putting your face on," also known as applying makeup. Cleaning followed by foundation, followed by blusher, by the time you're done it feels like it weighs a ton, and who wants that? Mineral makeup promises (and delivers) a touch as light as a butterfly's wing and you'll learn to adore the unique feel of it applying to your skin. Mineral makeup will make you feel positively lighter than air, and whether you're at work or on a special date, you'll find that that extra boost can be a lifesaver!
Ease of Application
With normal makeup, the makeup tips always warn against leaving it on overnight; it'll clog your pores and lead to possible breakouts of acne. With mineral makeup, however, you can apply it the night before if you're in a rush and then get up looking fabulous! With a single application, you can get a glow that will last for a full day, without needing to reapply. Also, when the mineral makeup goes on, it won't highlight wrinkles and crow's feet the way that powder and other makeup will do. Forget all the careful makeup tips you learned, it's a whole new ballgame!
Excellent on Damaged Skin
If you've recently had a chemical peel or a laser peel, you might not be too keen on the idea of using makeup over already inflamed skin, but mineral makeup is actually ideal! Even makeup that is traditionally gentle as MAC makeup can be a bit harsh, but the cooling properties of mineral makeup are wonderful for fast healing and making you look and feel better while you do it. Peels can be a stressful thing, and you shouldn't need to worry about struggling to look your best while your skin feels that tender. Mineral makeup will do all the work for you, so you can sit back and work on feeling better.
