Mineral makeup seems to be a trend in the beauty world of late. There are now many brands that sell mineral make up but not all mineral brands are the same. Each brand uses different ingredients, some contain non-natural ingredients and some add organic ingredients so that they can be labelled as organic, but one exciting British beauty company is going back to basics.

Mineral Makeup from BareFaced Beauty

Mineral Makeup company, BareFaced Beauty believe in keeping cosmetics as simple as possible so there is a reduced risk of skin irritation. Founder Nadine Anderson started the company back in 2005 after she had an allergic reaction to a foundation from a well-known brand. She started to look into the ingredients used, the lists are normally very daunting – we don’t encourage you to look! Nadine discovered mineral foundation, as well as it being natural it also gave great coverage. But at the time Nadine found that it was just not available in the UK and that’s when she decided to have it made herself and now it’s available to us all!

BareFaced Beauty Foundation – Charmed

BareFaced Beauty has a range of 100% pure mineral make up, including: foundations, lip glosses, eye shadows, finishing powders, shimmers, bronzers, gift and starter kits and soon new for 2013, mascaras. Hot off the press – they are also in the process of working on developing 100% pure mineral lipsticks and eye liners. You could have a complete minerals makeup beauty bag very soon. Gone are the days of skin irritation, poor coverage and a long list of ingredients you can’t pronounce.

Since launching, the BareFaced Beauty range has gone from being a specialist product to now being sold to thousands of women worldwide. Nadine came up with the name BareFaced Beauty after seeing Katie Price on “I’m a celebrity, get me out of here”.

“Normally only seen in photo shoots with lots of makeup on, she was beautiful even with no makeup on and that is when I thought of the name BareFaced Beauty.”

BareFaced Beauty Lipgloss – Passion Fruit

The newly-refreshed BareFaced Beauty website has just been launched, offering the entire range available to buy.

Mineral Makeup

The great news is, BareFaced Beauty natural mineral foundations are one of the most natural forms of foundation available. The whole formula is made from 100% natural minerals and are alcohol, chemical and dye-free. There are no parabens too, which is an increasingly important factor (LadyM knows this too well having cut them out from her life). The foundations can be applied sparingly for a natural sheer cover or a little heavier for an amazing coverage and detail, whilst still achieving a light and natural look.
