A few 8% of women that use makeup and skin care treatments care if their makeup is natural or not, according to recent global cosmetic studies.  This means 8% or less of women around the globe use natural mineral makeup loose powder or other natural makeup products.

If consumers had the option of pressed mineral makeup brands instead of all the loose powder mineral makeup brands the poll suggested consumers would use the pressed mineral makeup instead of chemical conventional makeup.

Several mineral makeup companies offer pressed mineral makeup including Pur, Purity, Jane Iredale, Colour ID, Studio Direct, Naked, Estee Lauder, and several others.

In conclusion, it’s wise to know what each makeup ingredient is, as cosmetic ingredient names may sound chemical, but are in fact made from natural ingredients.  Several websites offer full lists of cosmetic ingredients such as the Cosmetic Database, and Wikipedia (though we all know wiki is consumer response, not fact so beware).

Don’t be afraid to venture out of your chemically dependent makeup shell and try pressed powder mineral makeup, it be be the difference in keeping your skin younger looking longer.
