Shea Butter as Your MIneral Make-Up Primer



Here at Purely Shea-The Leader in Organic Shea Butter Skincare, we (the ladies anyway) have been trying some all-natural make-up alternatives and we absolutely love mineral make-up.

For those of you unfamiliar with mineral make-up, they are cosmetics that are made of only the purest ingredients, based on minerals found in the earth. Made almost entirely from pure pigments, mineral cosmetics are used very sparingly to achieve a fabulous coverage with an extremely lightweight feel.

Because the ingredients are all inert minerals, which cannot harbor bacteria, no preservative is necessary, and their shelf life is indefinite. No talc, dyes, oils, or chemicals are used which cause enlarging of pores

However, those of us with really dry skin noticed the mineral make-up left us looking overly dry and cakey. Our Solution? Purely Shea shea butter to the rescue! Apply shea butter sparingly underneath foundation and let it sink for a few minutes to avoid streaking. The result? Glowly and radiant mineral make-up without the dryness.
