I am so glad you stopped using that eye shadow. It probably had talc, which is an asbestos like carcinogen along with many other artificial ingredients. Regarding your idea for a post about mineral makeup, that is an excellent suggestion. I have thought the same thing about mineral makeup as you. In fact, I was just reading a blog post about a new mineral powder/liquid and it sounded so good. Then I went to the company's site and checked out the ingredient list. this is what it had in it: Cyclopentasiloxane,Butylene Glycol, Lauryl PEG-0, Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Dimethicone, HDI/Trimethylol Hexyilactone, Crosspolymer, Disteardimonium Hectorite, Polyglyceryl- 4 Isostearate, Cetyl PEG/PPG-10/1 Dimethicone, Hexyl Laurate, Dimethicone Crosspolymer, Squalane, Propylene Carbonate, Phytantriol, Tocopherol Acetate TOCOPHEROL, Tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate, Oleanolic Acid, Enantia Chlorantha Bark Extract, Panax Ginseng Root Extract, Portulaca Oleracea Extract, Centella Asiatica Extract, Sodium Hyaluronate, Polydodecanamideeaminium, Triazadiphenylethenesulfonate, Polyvinylalcohol Crosspolymer, Polysilicone-11, Pentaerythrityl Tetraisostearate, Silica Dimethyl Siliylate, Sodium Chondroitin Sulfate, Atelocollagen, Aminobuyric Acid, Barium Sulfate, Sodium Chloride, Magnesium Chloride, Potassium Chloride, Zinc Chloride, Lysine, Disodium EDTA, Sodium Dehydroacetate, Triethoxycaprylysilane, Phenoxyethanol, Caprylyl Glycol, Hexylene Glycol, Sodium Benzoate, Titanium Dioxide (Cl 77891),Iron Oxides (Cl77491,Cl77492,Cl77499) If you're still with me after reading ALL that, you can probably guess that this product does not meet my standards for a safe product. Too many ingredients (even though some of them are good ones) in one product not to mention unpronouncable chemicals. Ever saw the ingredient list for Real Purity foundation? 5 simple, understandable ingredients. So no, even if it's mineral make-up doesn't mean it's pure and good for you. Did you ever try <a href="http://www.purebodysolutions.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=RPCF&Category_Code=&affiliate=organicgirl6" rel="nofollow"><strong>Real Purity</strong></a>? Not too many people know about it, so it's the best kept secret around. Click the link to check it out. Thanks for your insightful comment. -Robin Hiya Grace,

After applying eyeshadow that I would get from Wal-Mart, the skin around my eye would get irritated, dried out, and kind of peel off, but then I switched. I switched to something more natural and I love it! I don't look like I had some kind of allergic reaction to my make-up anymore! :) I also would like to make a suggestion, I know that there's a difference between mineral make-up and organic make-up, but what exactly are the differences? I love your posts and I really think you should do a post on the differences and benefits. I don't know about other people but when I hear mineral I think organic and natural, it's easy to get them confused. I use to think that my skin was too sensitive for eyeshadow.

Minus the allergy sounding symptoms -and more on the toxins having an affect on our hormones. I have struggled with acne for about the past 10 years and have yet to see a dramatic improvement and I am fortunate enough to have a friend whom is working at a store that sells all natural products and has just introduced me to this. And I am so eager to learn all I can about it. Sincerely, Alison Lynch I really would like to know SO much more about this topic.
