Mineral Makeup is a great solution for sunscreen. Many women are very sensitive to chemical sunscreens.
Chemical sunscreen can clog pores and cause flare-ups and pimples on the face. For the body, sunscreen needs to be used when in the sun. However the face does have an alternative.
Mineral Makeup is that alternative.
When choosing, look for a Mineral powder that contains Titanium Dioxide and Zinc oxide for maximum protection. These will usually give 15+ SPF when a light covering is applied and 30 SPF or more when more than one coat of Mineral foundation is applied.
The bonus when using Mineral Makeup is you look fantastic at the same time as protecting your precious face from sun damage.
A quality Mineral Makeup:
- will not clog pores
- feels as light as air
- gives excellent coverage for pigmentation and Rosacea
- will not irritate the skin
- breathes
- looks natural
- is waterproof
- has high SPF factor
The sun is our worst enemy when it comes to lines, wrinkles and pigmentation marks. Skin needs to be well protected.
Something that does need to be considered is the body needs Vitamin D for bone strength and that is supplied by sunlight. Easy way around this is to go for an early morning walk without sunscreen before any heat is in the sun.
Lack of Vitamin D is a serious problem these days and shows no obvious symptoms. Osteoporosis is the concern with low levels of Vitamin D.
What not to have in Mineral Makeup:
No Bismuth Oxychloride
No Dimethicone
No Talc
No Nanoparticles
Look for:
Titanium Doixide: Zinc Oxide: Boron: Magnesium Myristate: Rice Powder.
These ingredients will give a beautiful silk finish powder to make you look years younger and also provide full protection from the harmful UV rays.
