Why use Mineral Make-up without Bismuth Oxychloride?

The use of Bismuth Oxychloride in almost all of the best-selling mineral powder make-up today is unfortunate, because the vast majority of acne and roseacea sufferers will use these products, and find that they also irritate and aggrevate their condition. This leads them to be let down, once again, by advertising claims of "good for all skin types".
At the time of this article, only two mineral powder companies leave off this harmful additive. "Belle Saison", at www.4skinbeauty.com and "Mineral Secrets", at www.mineralsecrets.com.
Of the two, the better value is Belle Saison's mineral powders. Why?, you ask? Well, they both are talc-free (an important note), but the amount of mineral powder that you get from Belle Saison is


20 grams, as compared with mineral Secret's 10 gram units for twice the price! We stick to using only micronized mineral pigments, no "rice powder" anywhere. Rice powder is a food grade additive, and therefore can cause molds, yeasts and other "nasties" to grow. Belle Saison uses only inorganic products in our mineral powder make-up line.
As someone who has battled with skin problems for 20 years, it is refreshing to use Belle Saison's mineral make-up line, and to finally be seeing the last of unsightly skin maladies. The longer I use the products, the better my skin looks!
