Mineral Makeup

It looks this go green phenomenon has shimmied it's way into the world of beauty. Mineral makeup is becoming the newest thing in beauty and it seems to be on everyone's lips- literally. Main ingredients such as mica, zinc oxide and titanium dioxide have been in your favorite cosmetics for over 30 years. The only difference with ‘mineral makeup’ is it doesn’t have the added fragrances, oils and binders of the others, making it a sure fit for sensitive skin. Still skeptical?
Here are some brands you know and love that are taking a walk on the mineral side:
L'Oreal Paris Bare Naturale Gentle Mineral Blush
$15.25, drugstores
N.Y.C Smooth Mineral Loose Foundation Powder with SPF 12
