Star Make-up: Why wearing mineral makeup is make-up at it's best.

At Mary Kay cosmetics quality and performance are key in selecting the types of products formulated and selected for Independent Beauty Consultants, like myself to offer to clients. Mineral makeup which is very popular for a number of reasons has been added to the line of make-up offered from Mary Kay, and it's one of my favorites. The company has also discontinued many of the alternative forms such as chemically based make up. I myself was wondering why the change instead of the variety. I searched the World Wide Web for an answer, not only for the purpose of being a Mary Kay Consultant but also being a consumer of beauty products as many of you are as well. I found an article that not only explained the difference between chemically based makeup and mineral but also the benefits and why so many product companies Mary Kay included decided to switch over. Here is a snippet of the article:

     In the past couple of years mineral makeup has become extremely popular, with estimated sales growing by sixty percent in 2005 alone. So what are the reasons for this incredible and unprecedented popularity with today�s women? 

Mineral makeup is manufactured with minerals which are sterilized and pulverized into a very fine powder which is then mixed with a variety of natural inorganic colorings to produce a variety of colors. Applying a mineral makeup instead of a chemical-based makeup provides a number of benefits.
