Mineral makeup is from ancient times possibly as far back as 3000 BC, minerals where taken from the earth, pulverised with a pumice stone and ground down into fine particles, they where then used for skin decoration. Back then they’d never heard of chemicals, fillers or nasty parabens. Only raw natural ingredients were available and they certainly used them.

In the 1970’s mineral makeup made its come back and now has been around for years, Mineral makeup - this decades “buzz” word is everywhere you go right now, supermarkets, big department stores, pharmacies and the like. As we move through this age we are becoming more health conscious and we are questioning what we are putting in and on our bodies. It can be very confusing as to which brand to buy and then you have to wrap your brain around the ingredient list.
Mineral makeup is available as loose powder, pressed powder in compacts and liquid. The most pure form is always loose powder.

When choosing a mineral makeup it’s not necessarily what’s in the makeup that’s important, but it’s deciphering what’s not in the makeup. You’ll want to know what nasties are included in your little pot of joy and even when you read the words are you up with the scientific lingo.
What to watch for are ingredients such as:

• -Talc, known to clog pores
• -Bismuth-Oxychloride (a known irritant that causes acne and makes skin itch)
• -Parabens used as preservatives. The trouble with parabens is there is a definite causal link to some cancers, definitely one to avoid
• -Mineral oil a petrochemical made from crude oil, dyes and artificial fragrance
