Weekly Medical Tips

Is your mineral makeup dangerous to your health?


The small particles from mineral makeup can cause harm when they are inhaled when being applied to the skin.  They can settle in the lungs causing scarring. Long term scarring can cause inflammation, irritation and lung disease in women and girls. Dr. Oz did suggest that women should stop using mineral makeup and switch to liquid foundation. Of course companies such as Bare Essentials are not pleased with this claim and are suggesting that these findings are unfounded, but logic may suggest differently. The next time you use your mineral makeup watch the small particles that circulates the perimeter of the area that is in your proximity. Do you think they are ingested and inhaled? 

If you must use mineral make up hold it away from your face when you are swirling the make-up on the brush and tapping off the excess. Wait few minutes then apply it.
  
Also here are some top foundations that rate high on Chatmemore's list:
  1. Simply Ageless (Ellen DeGeneres sponsors it)
  2. Pro Longwear Foundation by MAC (long wearing)
  3. Foundation stick by Benefit
  4. Double Wear by Estee Lauder
