Is Mineral Makeup Really Better?

Posted by admin 0 comments

More and more women – and skincare experts – are touting the virtue of using pure makeup. And mineral cosmetics are growing like crazy as a result. So is mineral makeup really all it’s cracked up to be?

According to WebMD, “Many dermatologists report that because mineral makeup frequently eliminates classic ‘irritants’ – like fragrances, binders, synthetic dyes, and preservatives — it is considered ‘purer’ and can be kinder to the skin” – score one for pure makeup .

Particularly for those with sensitive skin, “makeup sensitivity is often the result of synthetic dyes, fragrances, and preservatives, so any makeup that eliminates these is going to eliminate some of the related problems,” says Kathryn Frew, MD, a dermatologist at Juva Skin and Laser Center and MediSpa in New York City.

But that’s not all there is to the pure makeup debate. Not all mineral makeups are created equal, and it can be a challenge sorting the good from the snake oil.

As WebMD reports, “since there is no set regulation for what constitutes a ‘mineral’ makeup, any product containing minerals as a primary ingredient can be marketed as such — even if it contains a whole lot of other ‘less natural’ ingredients.” So, just as with the word “natural” in food, the word “mineral” in cosmetics does not necessarily equate to a truly pure makeup.

The Derm Blog doesn’t mince words on this fact: “there is no regulation for what constitutes a mineral makeup. Don’t be fooled by makeups labeled as ‘all natural minerals.’ A company can put artificial fillers, preservatives, or dyes in a makeup, and so long as it contains minerals, they can claim it is mineral makeup.”

Just as the FDA has very little control over the ingredients in cosmetics, “the FDA does not check to see if the product contains natural minerals… there is no requirement for a company to validate claims that its makeup is natural.” pure makeup seekers beware.

So it appears that even visiting mineral makeup shops in the mall or department store does not decidedly deliver truly pure makeup. The explosive growth of pure makeup, including mineral cosmetics, in recent years has driven many companies and retail stores to dress up their offerings in this space – and it’s left to the shopper to research, study, review, analyze, and seek out real, pure makeup. Without a doubt, it’s a confusing proposition.

But this growth, along with the wealth of information available online, has also inspired entrepreneurs to help women find the purest options.

Stores like www.repurify.com offer pure makeup products and mineral makeup products that are certified pure by objective third parties like the Environmental Working Group and Good Guide.

And so the virtues of mineral makeup appear to be legit. But like any endeavor towards healthier living, it requires equipping yourself with the knowledge to make informed decisions. The good news is, much of that information is just an online search away!

The Smart Makeup Kit: What Cosmetic Products You Should and Should Not Pay A Lot For

Posted by admin 0 comments

There are so many cosmetic products already on the market, with countless brands and prices to choose from, and more being added every day. As a result, navigating the world of makeup shopping can be overwhelming, especially if you are on a budget. Read on to find out which products you need to invest in and which ones you can get away with paying less for.

Foundation is something you absolutely should invest in. Our skin, especially around the face and neck, is the very first thing that gives away our age, so any product we use on it should be carefully selected. Cheap foundations can clog your pores, causing more bad than good in the long-run. In addition, pricier versions tend to do a much better job of masking imperfections and providing even coverage.

Don’t forget to prep your skin with a good moisturizer before applying foundation. Moisturizer is another product that you shouldn’t try to save on–your skin will thank you for it later. In addition, having a quality moisturizer and foundation can help you kill two birds with one stone. You can use the two products as a base for eye shadow, removing the need to spend money on an eye shadow primer.

Eye shadow is another splurge-worthy item. Cheaper shadows tend to fade and crease after a full day of wear, requiring frequent reapplication. At the end of the day, your lids are covered with layers and layers of shadow that are hard to properly blend. A versatile product that can dramatically enhance your eyes and also doubles as eyeliner is worth paying extra for.

We’ve all seen ‘spider’ lashes, which are covered in countless coats of mascara that hang off of the lashes in clumps. This is why you should invest in a quality mascara of which a quick application of just one or two coats creates long, sweeping lashes. Cheap mascaras–even the waterproof ones–tend to smudge and run at the slightest sign of moisture. Spend a little more so that you can avoid the “raccoon eyes” look even if you get caught in a rainstorm.

An eyeliner pencil is a product for which an inexpensive version will suffice. Because we are constantly blinking and rubbing our eyes, it is hard to keep eyeliner looking neat for long periods of time–even if using the most expensive brands, as my experience has shown. A reapplication here and there will be necessary, but you can help extend wear by fortifying the eyeliner with a layer of eye shadow. The great thing about not paying a lot for eyeliner is that you can buy several pencils in different colors, which will suit any mood and makeup look.

Eyebrow pencils and grooming tools area another area in which you can definitely save a few bucks. I own both a drugstore brand eyebrow grooming brush and one that came with an eyeliner pencil that cost about $30. Both brushes produce identical results, so I see no need to splurge on one of these. As for eyebrow pencils, what really matters is picking a shade that provides a good color match. Because you use the pencil to fill in the spaces between eyebrow hairs, the quality of individual strokes of color is hardly visible. As a result, the best quality pencil is not necessary for creating neat eyebrows.

Lip gloss is something that most women own many types of. Different colors, levels of opacity, textures–the choices are endless. Most drugstore have succeeded at creating affordable lip glosses that don’t sacrifice lasting power. Like eyeliner, I can’t imagine owning just one, so I recommend getting several inexpensive lip glosses that you can mix and match with your other makeup to create different looks. If you get tired of any one, you will be able to toss it without having to feel guilty over how much you paid for it.
