Color, Protect, and Correct

We first heard of mineral makeup in the mid-1970s, when a quiet cosmetic revolution was seeing its dawn. Thirty years later, mineral makeup has dramatically taken over the beauty market, with its popularity spread widely across the globe.

We often refer to mineral makeup as beauty products made from all natural and finely ground earth minerals. They do not contain any chemical, dye, or preservative that we typically find in traditional makeup products. Mineral makeup comes in different forms and prices, but it usually comes in the form of loose powder blushes and foundations. They are most of the time light and are buffed to our skin with the use of wide and fluffy brushes.

A lot of women have raved about the light, natural, and long-lasting glow that mineral makeup gives them. Other types of makeup have a hard time duplicating this. Colorescience takes the mineral makeup revolution a little farther through blending the line between color and the science of mineral makeup. While there are women who complain about drying and irritating sensations felt after applying mineral makeup, and the ashy undertones that mineral makeup has, Colorescience guarantees women that their skin are protected with every Colorescience makeup application.

Women often experience skin irritation with the use of tradition makeup due to the dyes, preservatives, and artificial fragrances that they contain. Mineral makeup only contains natural earth ingredients or minerals that are often essential to maintaining a healthy, glowing skin. Most mineral makeup contains titanium oxide and zinc oxide which have anti-inflammatory properties. Oftentimes, mineral makeup also has calming properties that help soothe irritated skin.

Most mineral makeup in the market are also non-comedogenic so women are assured that these formulations will not clog their pores. They also do not aggravate skin conditions like acne and they have lesser chances of causing flare-ups, unlike most traditional makeup.

Not all mineral makeup are the same. There are mineral makeup formulas that do not use synthetics like paraben preservatives and fillers, and there are those that add binders, colors, fillers, preservatives, and other chemicals. It is therefore important that you check the labels before you decide to purchase and use a certain mineral makeup formulation.

Colorescience is one mineral makeup manufacturer that not only brings color to women's faces; it also protects our skin and helps hide and correct blemishes and skin discolorations. Colorescience mineral makeup also comes with sun protection formulations that protect the skin from sun damage and helps prevent premature skin aging.
