Concealing Skin Flaws with Mineral Makeup

Part 2 (Read Part 1 ” Correcting Skin Flaws: Tips – What to Watch For in Products“)

Makeup is intended to camouflage skin flaws and imperfections. It is also used to bring out and enhance your beauty and personal traits. Be cautious though, as some make-ups will make your skin flaws even worse!

In addition to attempting to cover up skin flaws, many ingredients most cosmetics have, can actually trigger additional skin problems. Cosmetic ingredients such as dyes, fragrances and certain moisturizes can actually increase the predisposition towards additional skin problems like acne, break-outs, or inflamed rosacea and may actually result in skin that looks worse than before!

Look for mineral cosmetics that are designed to repair and improve skin flaws and imperfections. Mineral make-ups like Jane Iredale will not have the harmful ingredients – it is a premium natural makeup.
