5 Reasons to Make the Switch to Mineral Makeup

If you have been into the spa lately you have seen our newest beauty addition, Osmosis beauty Mineral makeup. We get asked a lot about the importance of makeup for the skin so to make sure our guests have the BEST option we have brought on the entire line.

Now, mineral makeup has been on the rise in popularity for some time now. But, how important is it really? Is it worth a total overhaul of your makeup bag?

With the help of our partners at Osmosis beauty we are unveiling the not-so-hidden benefits of choosing minerals and their role in your beauty routine to encourage you to make the switch.

1. YOUR MAKEUP SHOULD BE AN EXTENSION OF YOUR SKINCARE.

Here at the Refinery, we believe that true radiance should not stop with your skincare products. Enhancing your authentic beauty goes as far as lifestyle choices, supplements to boost internal balance and health, and even the makeup you wear every day!

Mineral makeup supports your skincare efforts by sitting on the skin without settling into pores or fine lines which makes it excellent for the acneic, sensitive, and rosacea skin types that could otherwise have a reaction or breakout to other makeup. It also delivers a seamless, “air-brushed” finish while promoting healthy, nourished skin.

2. INGREDIENTS THAT WORK AS HARD AS YOU DO.

We preach this to all our guests, but I will say it again… INGREDIENTS MATTER! Your skin will absorb anything and everything you put on it. Minerals are sourced from the earth and are free of harmful, man-made chemicals that can cause irritation. Instead, they feature powerful natural ingredients that work to nourish, soothe, and protect all while delivering flawless coverage and richly pigmented shades.

Tip: Look for ingredients such as zinc oxide, mica, jojoba seed oil, and green tea leaf extract on the label of your favorite mineral makeup products.

3. CRUELTY-FREE IS THE WAY TO BE.

Mineral makeup is often cruelty-free which is a bonus! We are proud that Osmosis offers cruelty-free makeup options so you can feel good about the products you’re putting on your skin. We take every chance we can to support the movement of protecting animals from harm in the beauty industry, and now you can too!

4. OUTLASTING PERFORMANCE

Aside from all the incredible benefits of skin-nourishing ingredients that minerals boast, the quality of the makeup itself is unmatched. The minerals promote such a smooth, seamless complexion that will last all day, while the finely milled minerals deliver richly pigmented shades to add that extra pop of pretty to your makeup look! 

PRO TIP: Moisture is a mineral’s best friend. To further enhance the performance of your makeup, spritz with Mineral Hydration Mist and watch as the makeup appears like its one with the skin.

5. GOING GREEN

Mineral makeup is an eco-friendly alternative to most drugstore cosmetics. Because of the naturally sourced ingredients, you can minimize your carbon footprint by using minerals. Now that is a win-win in our book!
