The holidays are fast approaching, and for many acne sufferers
they're dreaded because of the cofines of friends and family.
With that many people close, it's hard to get excited when you
know they'll get a close glimpse at your acne prone skin.



The natural inclination is to smear loads o concealer and
foundation over blemishes to hide them from a close examination.
But drugstore foundations that are manufactured by big brands
such as CoverGirl, Maybelline, Loreal and others are ridden with
oils, chemicals, preservatives and other pore clogging
unmentionables.



Caking on these foundations can be more trouble than it's worth
because they cause further blemishes and most times major break
outs. That's not a scenario that most acne sufferers would
associate with "happy" holidays. So what's the average sufferer
to do to avoid this dreaded scenario?



Mineral Makeup is the most popular trend - recommended by
dermatologists the world over and used by hollywood celebrities
because of it's many benefits to acne sufferers. Mineral makeup
is an all natural makeup that is made with minerals from the
earth. The minerals are highly water proof so they help to
dehydrate and thus kill off the bacteria in your pores that
causes cystic acne.



Dermatologists are calling mineral Makeup the "skin care" makeup
because it is so gentle to the skin that you can actually sleep
in it. The mineral are ground so fine that they are too small to
clog pores. instead they "lay" on the skin as little flakes that
interlace to protect the skin from moisture getting in and
feeding acne causing bacteria. The overlying flakes still allow
the skin to "breathe" while shielding off this moisture.



The two primary ingredients in mineral makeup are Zinc Oxide and
Titanium Dioxide. If you read makeup labels then you probably
recognize these two minerals. That's because they appear in
virtually every sunblock on the market for their full range UV
sunblocking abilities. That's right, Mineral Makeup is a natural
sunblock as well, which means all that sunlight reflecting off
the snow as you build snowmen and go sleding this holiday season
is blocked by your mineral makeup. Sumblock is just as important
to your skin health in the winter as it is in the summer.



And Mineral Makeup looks fabulous when you wear it. It is
delivered to you in powder form and goes on very smoothly, it is
so light weight that many people forget they are wearing it.
This light weight quality helps it to blend seamlessly into the
skin for a beautiful natural look.



Considering the many benefits of using mineral makeup could
really help to turn your holidays into the "happy" holidays we
all dream of.
