[QUOTE=Smurfette]What's mineral makeup? any examples?[/QUOTE]

Mineral makeup is made from minerals & doesn't contain all the additives found in *regular* makeup. It doesn't clog pores (although different mineral makeups have different ingredients, so you might find that some don't work well with your skin, while others do), looks very natural, & is actually good for your skin.

Some mineral makeups contain bismuth oxychloride, which can be irritating & cause itching - it is also what gives the *shiny* look that some people dislike - I am one of those who dislikes that look. Bare Escentuals/Bare Minerals contains bismuth, so does Jane Iredale, Jerome Alexander, Youngblood, Sheer Cover, Naturelle, & La Bella Donna.

I know Aromaleigh, Monave, Botany 101, Illuminaire, & GeoGrafx do NOT contain bismuth.
