What the deal with the new mineral make-up?

Answer by  NGoodson (3395)

Mineral makeup is a great alternative to regular makeup, especially in this day in age when "going green" is such a fad because it's composed of all natural ingredients.

Mineral make-up is better for your skin than traditional liquid make-up. It hides imperfections such as acne, rosacea and freckles, and makes your skin look natural. BareMinerals used to be the only brand of mineral make-up on the market. Now, Cover Girl, Avon, Lancome, etc., have mineral make-ups in their lines. Give it a try; your face will look amazing.

Mineral makeup offers full or medium coverage in a powder format. Instead of using concealer and powder, mineral makeup allows you to achieve the same result using only one product. In addition, the finish on mineral makeup is natural looking and long lasting.

The foundation is loose minerals (not pressed into a powder compact or made into a liquid). It offers buildable coverage. Personally, it was ineffective on my dry skin.

Mineral make up is made of finely crushed minerals. People claim this make up is less irritating on their skin due to lack of irritants like fragrance, dyes, and preservatives.
