Making your own decisions or falling for the hype? We are bombarded everyday by the hype and fluff of big budget advertising and marketing campaigns for just about every product we buy…including mineral makeup.
There is so much of it that it’s hard to tell what we should really pay attention to…which is actually just what the hype is designed to do. The Affordable Mineral Makeup Company doesn’t have big budget advertising and marketing campaigns, but it wouldn’t matter if they did…they just say it like it is: they recommend using personal care and makeup products with no unnecessary, harmful or toxic ingredients…only healthy, pure ingredients and none that you don’t need…and that’s exactly what you get with pure mineral makeup from Affordable Mineral Makeup.
It’s easy at any age to be lulled into a trance by the promises of sexy, glamorous, Hollywood looks by using the ‘purest’ or ‘most refined’ makeup products…but read the labels…make sure you know exactly what you are getting for the extra money you are paying for all that marketing and advertising hype.
Now are you making your decisions to buy pure minerals based on the hype of international companies, or are you doing your research and making your own decisions? Makeup!! Your Mind!

I read the most disturbing news report recently on CNN.com. In a new study conducted in Europe, the findings indicate a link between mental health problems and teens with problem acne. Nearly everyone has had some type of complexion or skin problem at some point in their life, but did you know that severe problems can be devastating psychologically…and peer pressure in our world can make it ten times worse….particularly as teens when you are really forming your self-image and self-esteem.
Now, I am naturally concerned about this for two reasons…obviously one of them is that my company specializes in irritant-free, chemical free mineral makeup without harmful ingredients like Bismuth Oxychloride…all of which helps reduce and prevent acne and other skin problems.
The other reason…if you’ve been reading our blog, you know that we are on a mission to inform everyone about using safer cosmetics and personal care products like ours. Many other personal care product manufacturers use ingredients that have already been banned for use in personal care products in the European Union. Many of those ingredients are in products you use on your face every day which can contribute to increased skin problems including acne. And since the category is unregulated and ingredients often untested, there could be harmful ingredients in those products that do even worse things than exacerbate acne.
Please go watch the Story of Cosmetics video and find out more about this very important issue.

I am confused…we makeup after a fight, right? This is a good thing…
If we get rained out we do a makeup game, right? This is a good thing…
If we’re absent we have a makeup test, right? This could be a good thing…
Don’t we makeup our bed? This might be a good thing…
Don’t we make up stories? Uhhh…maybe a good thing…
And don’t we apply makeup?
None of these things are bad for us…right? Wait a second…makeup? How really weird that this word can have so many implications. I love it! Many cosmetic companies just keep putting chemicals in their products…so there is bad makeup and good makeup. I want to make (it) up to the whole world by letting you know there are good places to buy good, healthy and safe makeup. For real. Honest. Truly, and I am not making this up! Check out Affordable Mineral Makeup. The company that cares about you. Really.
