Organic Mineral Makeup

As you may have heard there is a lot of dialogue occurring around what exactly is ‘organic’ and if a brand slaps the name ‘organic’ on it, does it truly mean that their products are organically produced?  And then add in to the mix the word ‘natural’.  If you want to begin the foray in to organic mineral makeup, you may want to read these articles.  Click here or here.  Does your brain hurt as yet?  The truth is that there is little governance over organic mineral makeup right now, making your search incredibly hard.  Mineral makeup is for the most part ‘natural’ however not ‘organic’ since minerals cannot technically be grown or farmed, and are technically ‘inorganic pigments’.

As a last note – if you are searching for organic makeup, you want to search for one that is produced organically from plants and has no relationship to GMO’s.  Organic makeup should be “free of harsh chemicals, synthetic preservatives parabens, synthetic colors, and fragrances” (Source: vivawomen.net).
