Believe it or not, but a light makeup makes a lot of difference for any face shape and skin texture! There are 'n' number of skin care and makeup products in the market these days, and to search the one for ourselves is a task in itself! So, what we generally do is experiment, experiment after experiment, perhaps just to get some good results. Now, there are not many people who can get acquainted with the variety of cosmetic products available. Most of us have a dry or oily skin, I guess almost all of us. Then, what probable options do we have? The answer is simple enough, mineral makeup. These have proven to be extremely useful and popular these days, and when I said that they are popular, it clearly means they work! Yeah...they do work.
When we talk about the reviews, what really matters are the ingredients put into use, and of course, the effectiveness of this brand. Cosmetics of this line were launched under the brand name Bare Escentuals, and yes, they have been used over and over since then mainly as a makeup for oily skin. The very first aspect of their popularity are the Bare Minerals ingredients; Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide. Both these compounds have natural thickening properties and hence merge with any kind of skin tone. Along with this, they also protect against the UV rays with their high SPF values. Another mineral ingredient, Bismuth Oxychloride imparts a glow or glistening effect on the face after the application. Next to it is Iron Oxide which gives a specific color to this powder mineral makeup. And the last is Mica which helps reflect light and thus prevents the skin from being oily and dehydrated. Apart from these five minerals, those present in minute quantities are Kaolin, Ultramarine Blue, and Manganese Violet.
While going through the reviews, I realized they work because of their ease of application. The mineral powder is very easy to apply and gets merged with the skin very fast. The makeup is extremely light weight with the essential SPF values. Now, most of the makeup kits available in the market look gaudy and make the face oily however, it is not so with Bare Minerals. These make a woman look most natural and simple yet very presentable!
Another advantage of using Bare Minerals makeup is its long-lasting ability. All their products act as primers and stay for longer span without making you feel uncomfortable. This means that even if you are sweating, the makeup won't come off that easily and will last for a longer duration.
Having spoken of the number of pros of using Bare Minerals, it has its share of faults which should be mentioned as well. Not too many to worry about, there's just one which I could find. If you see the makeup kits, these are available in small glass jars and thus turn out to be a bit messy when it comes to application. Had the jars been wider, it would have been better; also say most of the women who have used the products.
The range of cosmetic products which you could buy are - Bare Minerals All Face Color, Bare Minerals Foundation, Bare Minerals Veil Finishing Powder, and of course the brushes. All the brushes are soft and do not irritate the skin at all. The makeup kits are available in three color tones from which you can choose the one for your skin type. All of them are pretty cheap, approx. $65, and you can buy these from their exclusive stores or purchase them online too.
Bare Minerals is certainly a brand to look up to and has gained many customers over time. It easily can be called the best mineral makeup for sure! Try it out yourself to be sure.
