    Affordable Mineral Makeup: Bismuth oxychloride

    Affordable Mineral Makeup: Bismuth oxychloride

    We’ve seen the late-night commercials and read about the amazing results from a simple quick application but what exactly are you putting on your skin and how does mineral makeup differ from the rest of the cosmetics out there?

    Affordable Mineral Makeup thinks that less is definitely more when it comes to mineral makeup. There is no bismuth oxychloride in our ingredients to irritate you skin and make you itch, bismuth is actually a byproduct of lead and copper processing - now you know where that “glow” comes from. In some cases it can cause itching and rashes or worse, cystic acne. If you have skin conditions such as acne or rosacea, this may increase your likelihood of developing red, angry skin.

    How do you know if the product you’re buying has Bismuth oxychloride? Unfortunately some companies don’t list all of their ingredients so you won’t know your reaction until you buy the product. Even companies that label themselves as “natural” or “pure” can have small amounts added as fillers so if you have questions, be sure to contact the company before buying.

    Affordable Mineral Makeup is proud to be Bismuth-free and welcomes any questions as to our ingredient list. We believe that an informed consumer is our best customer.
