WHAT IS MINERAL FOUNDATION?

 

Mineral makeup is simply the most simple, natural product you can put on your skin. It's created from minerals and inorganic pigments that exist in nature, which are finely milled and purified, then treated or coated with other pigments to create different colors and effects. Mineral makeup contains as few ingredients as possible to provide a lightweight and natural-looking coverage- without all the other "stuff".

 

The benefits of mineral cosmetics

  • Natural look and feel - Leave your heavy, mask-like liquid foundations behind. Mineral foundation looks and feels much more natural, without sacrificing coverage. 

  • Affordability - It only takes a small amount, and on top of that- Aromaleigh is one of the most affordable mineral makeup brands there is.

  • Stays on all day long - Lightweight and very small, mineral pigment particles seem to bind to clean, moisturized skin. This stuff doesn’t slide off, wear off or sweat off! Some of our customers even swear that you can swim in it.

  • Good for sensitive skin - Sensitive girls, rejoice! Mineral cosmetics are great for sensitive skin. Traditional liquid foundations contain a plethora of complex and un-natural ingredients that can produce a state of imbalance or irritation in many skintypes. Mineral cosmetics are the simplest, most natural and non-reactive form of cosmetics in existence.

  • Anti-inflammatory - Two of our ingredients, titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, are anti-inflammatory and actually help calm the skin. Zinc oxide also has antimicrobial properties. In fact, plastic surgeons and dermatologists routinely recommend mineral makeup to patients who have had laser treatments, microdermabrasion, peels or plastic surgery.

  • Oil- and fragrance-free - None of our loose powder mineral cosmetics contain any oils or fragrances. 

  • Non-comedogenic - With no oils, fragrances, or fillers, breakouts are few. The light mineral powders also let skin breathe naturally and don’t settle into pores.

  • Natural sunscreen - Titanium dioxide and zinc oxide offer natural, broad-spectrum sun protection.

  • Flexibility! Mix and customize - If you’ve ever had trouble finding a foundation that matches your skin tone or locating that perfect eyeshadow color, you will love mineral cosmetics! Any of our cosmetics can be mixed to create the perfect shade.

  • Samples!  - You can purchase Aromaleigh mineral foundation sample baggies of various colors or formulas to try before you purchase a full size.

  • Personalized Color Matching Help - Email me a no-makeup photo of yourself taken in outdoor lighting (not direct sunlight, ideally outside but under a porch, for example) and I'll suggest a range of samples for you to try.

  • A variety of sizes - Aromaleigh mineral foundation is available in FOUR sizes. Sample baggies, Mini Jars, the Regular size Jar and the Large jar. There's a size to meet your needs, and your budget.
