all about mineral makeup

 Mineral makeups are the rage nowadays with the benefit that comes attached with the mineral makeup which was started by the bare mineral makeup. The normal makeup creams have a lot of additives, fillers and preservatives which can be major skin irritants. That is they first which came into the market was all natural and was known as the SPF15 made by Bare Escentuals. 

After that then there are several companies that have come in which now have the only mineral makeup cosmetics including the foundations and the concealer. Initially these makeup options were available only to the people via the commercials and were made famous by people like Leeza Gibbons and people were asking about the mineral makeup as seen on TV. 

That said there have been several things that have been there for long that did not work right with the only mineral makeup because these minerals were finely grounded and hence were essentially only powders. That was a pain was there was a chance about spilling the powders. To overcome that the companies have come up the various option that liquid mineral makeup or the pressed mineral makeup as well as the cream mineral makeup. 

The way the pressed mineral makeup works is that the mineral makeup is ground into fine powder and bound by Shea butter and vitamin E. 


Pressed Mineral makeup brands

 Now there are several brands which have been out there and the very common is the Pur Minerals 4-in-1 pressed minerals makeup. This has the foundation which is made up of the concealer and the powder and the SPF15. The elements which are used are the Titanium and Zinc. They have these minerals which are the Titanium Dioxide Inactive Ingredients: Mica, Boron Nitride, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Bismuth Oxychloride, Zinc Stearate, Magnesium Silicate, Magnesium Carbonate, Silica, Shea Butter (Butyrospermum Parkii), Tocopheryl Acetate, Iron O. They also have the Pur Mineral Eye Shadows.

There are a lot of there brands in the market but you will need to check if they have the pressed mineral makeup and these are

Now you can do the pressing of the mineral makeup yourself if you know how to press the minerals yourself and as well as what kind of binding agent is needed. Now if you need the purest form of the mineral makeup then the loose powders are a must though I must say that they are messy but then you are adding an artificial agent on the pure minerals like a Shea butter or jojola oil. 

I must say that before you choose the mineral makeup you know how to choose the mineral makeup and also how to make the mineral foundation and the truth is that you can make your own miner foundation. You need the most essential thing which is the kabuki brushes.
