Just when I thought Fall was heading this way, we went back into the 90's and the humidity is back!


This heat can take a toll on your makeup and some Mineral Makeups can actually make you itch in this hot humid weather.  Why? Well some people actually have a reaction to some of the Zinc in Mineral Makeup.  This can cause a slight tingling, itching or stinging feeling.  Not typically noticeable when the weather isn't hot and humid but, these reactions can happen if your skin has sensitivities like mine.

I have found a quick and easy solution to stop the itching.  During the Summer months I add two sample size jars of "Real Silk Powder" to my foundation.  This helps soothe skin during these humid months. Actually every time I open a new foundation jar I automatically add two of the sample jars.  It makes your skin feel soft and dewy. If you don't want to add it to your Foundation, then just l
ightly dust on before your Mineral Foundation application to help seal moisture into your skin. Silk is a natural moisture-adjusting product which can absorb or release moisture as the temperature and humidity change. It is also a powder which breathes.

Now, I am sure you are asking why we don't add it to our Mineral Silk Foundation Formula.  Well, unfortunately "Real Silk Powder" is slightly higher in cost than our other ingredients we add to our foundations.  So instead of adding it to the formula, we simply suggest that for those that have issues with sensitivity, they add it to there personal foundation.
