Lanolin: acts to repel water and moisture to
keep makeup dry in wet weather.
Titanium Dioxide: A whitening agent used in
cosmetics to whiten eye shadows, powders
and other cosmetics.
Zinc
oxide and titanium dioxide are
commonly found in sunscreen, so mineral
makeup has a built-in SPF.
Zinc oxide helps you if you suffer from facial
redness.
Most of these ingredients are found in
nature, so mineral powder tends to be
nontoxic and much better for your skin than
other cosmetics are.
Mineral
foundation is good for people with
oily skin. If you use it, it helps prevent the
oiliness of your skin.
Liquid foundation is good for people with dry
skin. It gives you a smooth finish and also
moisturizes.
Minerals
provide the color to eyes, cheeks,
lips, and nails.
Iron oxide is one of the most important color
for minerals.
Today, iron oxides give red, orange, yellow,
brown, and black tones to makeup.
Chrome oxides are used for greens.
Blue and pink coloring is made from a
mixture of kaolin, soda ash, sulfur, and
charcoal.
Even gold has historically been used as a
colorant.
