In steps Mineral Basics. They create their makeup for people who have skin issues like acne, rosacea, large pores, fine lines, wrinkles, uneven texture and tone, dark under-eye circles and more. I'm guessing I would fal in there with slight acne (from time to time), and uneveness. I have freckles, so yeah, it's uneven. :)
A little from Mineral Basics:
We use only natural, healthy ingredients in our products…never synthetic dyes, fragrances, chemicals, surfactants, mineral oil, preservatives or other such unnecessary ingredients. We believe in taking care of our bodies and the environment. We began our mineral makeup company in hopes to spread natural, clean products to others. In a world where most companies are just out to make a profit,at the expense of your health and well being, we choose to offer high-quality products, commitment to excellent service, and honesty in all we do.
Somthing that will make you look pretty, is 'green', AND good for you? Wow! That's really nice!
I was sent 15 samples. Everything from multi-use colors to illuminating concealer to concealers to blush to finishing dust. I was amazed. The colors were wonderful! There was something 'out there' like
"Secret-Potion"
And something very subtle, like
"Mer-Tresses"
I used a little bit of everything. I couldn't complain. I didn't feel like I was wearing a lot of makeup, and it never bothered my skin. They all went on really easy too. My favorite was the Illuminating Concealer. It evened out my eyes and gave them a really pretty glow. Since I only got a 'sample' of that, I think I will probably order some more! I started reading about it, and it's made using real crushed pearls! I've never heard of anything like that! Read HERE to learn more about it and the other benefits it offers!
According to the Mineral Basics website, some mineral makeup companies actually include a nasty little non-essential ingredient called bismuth oxychloride, which irritates bare skin and causes many people to break out. Uh-huh, I told you all makeups weren't created equal! Go HERE to learn some more differences.
I am so overly-impressed with Mineral Basics. Who knew that makeup was so complex, and that it could be so good for your skin!?

wow, I thought I did the mandatory entry first... guess it didn't go through :( well, what I liked best about the company is that it caters to those of us with sensitive skin. Makeup is a big issue to me because of that, and while I've been tempted to try mineral makeups before, I didn't see where any company (until now) specifically stated that their formulas were designed for different skin types.
I learned that they never use synthetic ingredients in their products.

I love that Mineral Basics won't irritate my sensitive skin or make me break out! That's major important to me, since I can't use a lot of brands of makeup (especially foundations) out there.

I once asked a friend “What are the actual benefits of mineral makeup?” This savvy beauty babe, who knows much in the ways of fashion and makeup, advised me on its benefits, and now I’m a convert. What can I tell you? Mineral makeup is made with organic materials that are non-comedogenic, which means they do not clog pores! Nice! They are also lighter in application and feel weightless on your skin, as opposed to chemical makeups that feel heavy and globby on your skin. Mineral makeup is less damaging on your skin and allows for a healthy glow despite covering up some unsightly skin aspects, like wrinkles or pimples.If you haven’t tried mineral makeup, check it out: it’s worth the hype! Look for minerals and organic products that are going to go a long way, instead of many micro-products that add up to a big spending budget! Definitely go for mineral foundations and mineral moisturizers: they will add the most to your complexion in the long run. Enjoy the beautiful effects and longlasting appeal for your skin! It is totally worth the investment.
