Makeup You Don’t Have to Depend On

Since mineral makeups first began to appear, they’ve promised smooth, flawless skin, and some even claim to hydrate. But there are two issues that I have with most mineral makeups. First of all, while natural minerals like kaolin clay can help clarify the skin, if your skin is dry to begin with, you are inevitably going to wind up with a flaky face. And secondly, I kept finding that in photos–no matter how flawless my skin looked in person–my face looked super shiny (not just glowing, glowing is good, shiny is not), as though I was wearing zero makeup.

I did find mineral makeup more breathable than their predecessors, but it still felt heavier than I was accustomed to.

At the time that I set out to develop my Natural Anti-Aging Foundation Set, I had come to love Jane Iredales’s Amazing Base and Afterglow Cosmetics’ Organic Mineral Foundation. I had tried countless other mineral makeups, and these are in my opinion, some of the best of what’s around.  But still, keeping my skin hydrated even while wearing drying mineral powders was a bit of a challenge.

I wanted to create a makeup product that didn’t just make my skin look better while wearing it, but also acted as a skin care product, so that even when I am not wearing the foundation the quality of my skin is improved.  This Foundation Set may take some getting used to for some, as it’s quite unlike anything else on the market. Which is why I’ve just recorded a new video to show you how and why it may be worth a try.
