I wear bare minerals. It's literally mineral powder. But very sheer.
That is good stuff. I don't think the rest of makeup "irreparably damages one's skin." Not directly. Most of it will clog up pores and cause acne and other stuff.
I like it a lot. Just natural and definitely doesn't look like pancake batter. I'm sure you know what I mean. So yea, if a woman wants to wear make up it should really look like she isn't wearing any but merely complimenting what she already has. IMO
My gf and I have both had acne at points. I don't wear make up, but she does, and it turned out some of hers was due to using makeup to cover it up in the first place. The bare minerals seems not to cause acne. We both use the Proctiv, which works great. So I guess we are 2/2 on as-seen-on-TV products. I think they are both fairly expensive, natch.
Mineral powder on the skin is today mostly harmless. The huge thing about Talcum powder causing lung problems comes from silly women inhaling the dust on a daily basis. Powdered mineral inhalation should always be avoided no matter the type of mineral. I am aware some women use powdered sparkly mica as a skin decoration. I think it's a non issue.
Yes I think you are correct.
