The Body Shop's new "Nature's Minerals" line comprised of mineral foundations, blushes, and eyeshadows is clinically proven to be perfect for those with sensitive skin, containing minerals only, and being free from potential irritants such as preservatives and fragrance, or waxes and binders.
All Nature's Minerals™ products include:
* Mediterranean Clay: an absorbent mineral that helps bind the make-up to the skin for long-lasting coverage.
* Mica: Adds luster and has light-diffusing properties to help disguise fine lines.
* Titanium Dioxide: Helps protect skin form the sun; provides color in cheek color and eye color. The SPF 25 in our foundation is currently the highest in the mineral make-up market.
* Red, yellow, and black Iron Oxide: Provides a rich, natural color palette.
I'll be reviewing a few products for you soon so stay tuned! These products have been generating a lot of buzz around the web so hopefully I'll like the mineral foundation more than I did Bare Escentuals' which made me itchy. You'll have to wait for my reviews to hear more about the products, but I do have to say that I love the packaging! The mesh sifters on the foundations are soooo much better than conventional sifter holes, plus I love that the products have expiration dates printed on the exterior so that I know when these need to go.

New From The Body Shop: Nature's Minerals

It was probably Bismuth in BE that made you itch. BE uses Bismuth in their formulation despite the fact that many people have reactions to it. If you read reviews online of BE, you'll see tons of them from people who've had the same reaction or worse.
These Body Shop products don't appear to have Bismuth, which is good. I know that quite a few brands of mineral makeup are Bismuth-free, but you would think BE would work on eliminating that ingredient.
Deb since BE I've avoided products with Bismuth, which has been relatively easy. It was the strangest thing though because it was fine at first--but after a week or so the itching set in and wouldn't go away so of course I stopped using it.
Everyday Minerals "EM" free form bismuth :) also their coverage is good, choose matte or intensive formula.
thanks for the recommendation girlissh! i'm a big fan of EM's blushes but their foundations ended up not working too great with my skin-type. but i'll continue to search for more great mmu options!
