Why mineral makeup is better for your skin

We’ve all felt the pressure to achieve perfect skin at some point in our lives. The no makeup trend of the last few seasons has been positive in the sense that in order to pull off the ‘look’, one needs the foundation of healthy skin.

Mineral makeupHowever, it can also amplify the pressure to achieve complexion perfection. The fact of the matter is, the very name of the trend is a misnomer and it sets us up for unrealistic expectations of achieving flawless skin. The truth is, makeup is required to execute the no-makeup look. So how do you maintain healthy skin without compromising it with pore-clogging makeup? It’s as simple as choosing a medical-grade mineral cosmetic base.

At Preventous Cosmetic we work with Glo Skin Beauty’s award winning mineral foundations. The purity of the formulations makes them safe enough to use on treated skin – think fractional laser resurfacing and chemical peels.

Glo Skin Beauty bases are also formulated with skin enhancing antioxidants and plant botanicals so your makeup is not just covering up, it is protecting and improving the quality of the skin.

Key Features

Some of the key features of a medical-grade mineral cosmetic that are better for your skin include:

  • provides supplementary sun protection
  • light reflecting to give the skin a luminous finish

You no longer have to choose between having clear skin and looking polished.
