As legend knows that it was the mid 1970s when a quiet, little cosmetic revolution took birth. Then it was called mineral make up, products which were made of natural, finely ground minerals without any of the chemicals, dyes and preservatives found in their traditional make up. After some 30 years, it will virtually explode the beauty market and right now, it has been creating a revolution in the cosmetics industry.

As with any product, there are those who can't stop telling others how wonderful it is, and then there are others who won't stop in criticizing it. The ones who do love mineral make up will tell you how wonderful it is, how light, natural ,and how long lasting the glow lasts, a glow that just isn't offered by other makeup. However, there are those who complain that it's drying, irritating, and emphasizes wrinkles, adding years to your appearance. They also say the colors have an pasty undertone that can be problem for exotic skin tones.
