Mineral Makeup and Oily Skin
By Erin Stinson
Many people are switching over to the use of mineral products in the
last few years. It is an easy product to apply and will last all day.
People buy the product for these benefits alone not even knowing the
skin care benefits they are going to receive as well. Let’s look at the
benefits that mineral makeup will have on oily skin.
For those of us that suffer from oily skin you know that you need to
“blot” your face through out the day, several times for some of us. This
means carrying around the beauty sheets that can soak up the oil and
moisture so you can then touch up what got ruined by the oil build up.
With mineral makeup this situation will greatly improve.
Before you apply you mineral foundation you want to be sure that you
are apply an oil free hydrator. Part of the reason people have oily skin
is because the skin is over compensating for a lake of moisture. So do
not skip the moisturizer, even though you have oily skin you still need
it. You want to allow the moisturizer plenty of time to set into your
skin. This will allow the mineral foundation to adhere to your skin and
not the moisturizer.
Now you can apply the foundation to your skin. This powder will set
into any wrinkles you may have to make your face appear smooth and
visually you will have reduced your wrinkles. If you want more then a
sheer coverage apply another coat. The mineral foundation will protect
your skin from the oily buildup by absorbing the excess oil that either
your skin is letting out or that is accumulating from the environment.
Also the makeup will help any acne issues you may be suffering from as
well. Many people have had great results when they switch to the mineral
makeup products. Mineral products will not clog your pores so your skin
can breathe while wearing the makeup, unlike other foundations.
With all these benefits your skin health will improve greatly with
mineral makeup. Give it a try and see what you think. |
