Suggestions for Mineral Makeup?
by Valerie
I read all the harmful ingredients that can cause irritation towards the skin and noticed you suggested Cleure as a safe mineral makeup...yet the powder contains the harmful ingredients you listed on your site. I was wondering if you have other suggestions as to which mineral powder would be more appropriate? I am currently suffering from allergies on my face and I suspect my powder is irritating my skin. I am currently using BareMinerals which contains an active ingredient of titanium dioxide and inactive ingredients of bismuth oxychloride, titanium dioxide, mica, iron oxides. My skin is very sensitive and tends to breakout. bareMinerals makes certain parts of my face swollen, itchy, raised, red and irritated. Ive been trying to find natural powder without some of these ingredients and it seems a bit impossible. Any suggestions? Thank you. Hello Valerie, Yes, at the time you were searching the Cleure site, they had a cosmetics line that was in transition, and although their mineral makeups and powders have never contained bismuth oxychloride, which is likely the source of the skin irritation you are experiencing. For more information on the effects of bismuth oxychloride and why it can cause skin irritation, please see our Best Mineral Makeup for Sensitive Skin page. Cleure is in the process of revamping their mineral makeup and cosmetics line. Their new products are all paraben free, and all of their mineral makeup powders have always been free of bismuth oxychloride. You can see their loose mineral powders, which are the newest products, listed here on our safe skin care products page. Some of the older Cleure cosmetics may still have parabens, and are in the process of being reformulated. These are clearly marked, so check the ingredients of each products. See if the newer ">Cleure Mineral Makeup will work better for you and let me know how it goes for you! Click here to read or post comments.
