Why Enchated Potion's Lotions?

Enchanted Potions Lotion Vs. Many Name Brand Lotions

So what is the difference and why purchase Enchanted Potions lotion when you can buy lotion locally and get it quicker? Your body will thank you, that’s why! Many name brand lotions sold in department stores contain Mineral Oil. Mineral Oil is petroleum based (think crude oil you put in your car).  Do you really want that on your skin? The mineral oil is why your favorite lotion feels so greasy on your skin.  The greasier it is, the more mineral oil it contains. Our lotion contains Vegetable and nut oils that are friendly to your skin. They are nourishing to your skin and you won’t feel that greasy residue because your skin will absorb these oils and actually use them to help your skin, not just hide the dryness problem.

Check out all the lotions, with their ingredients and available scents here.

Handcrafted Bath & Body Products

Pamper your mind, body, and soul with 100% handmade products that are made only when you order them! Most products are available in over 120 scents.

Bismuth Oxychloride In Mineral Makeup

Several mineral makeups list Bismuth Oxychlroride as an ingredient. While Bismuth does occur naturally in the Earth (and chemically resembles Arsenic), it isn't economical to mine it. To make meet the demands for it, it is created as a by-product from refining lead and copper. The Bismuth then undergoes processes to become Bismuth Chloride. Neither the Bismuth nor the Bismuth Chloride is safe to use. It then undergoes even more processes before becoming Bismuth Oxychloride. Therefore, it is not a natural ingredient. Other reasons to stay away from this ingredient:

• It can clog your pores
• It is known to irritate your skin
• Can cause cystic acne
  

Opinions

I just wanted to state that any opinions on this blog are solely my own.

Ingredients to Avoid

When choosing a mineral makeup, there are several ingredients you should avoid, especially if you have sensitive skin. These ingredients include:

• Bismuth Oxychloride
• Talc
• Parabens
• Petrolatum Based Oils
• Cornstarch
• Ferric Ferrocyanide
• BHA
• BHT
• Triethanolamine
• Rice Powder

We will take a more detailed look at these ingredients later on.

Cleaning Makeup Brushes

When it comes to applying makeup, using clean brushes is very important. Dead skin cells and oils from your skin clinging to the bristles, along with makeup build-up, can shorten the life of your brushes. Dirty brushes can also harbor bacteria.

You can easily and inexpensively clean your brushes.

1. Dampen the bristles with warm water.
2. Add 1-2 drops of baby shampoo or a gentle facial cleanser. Work into a later.
3. Rinse the bristles thoroughly with warm water.
4. Blot with a towel and shape the bristles into their original shape.
5. Lay flat on towel and allow to air-dry.

Please remember to keep your brushes flat when cleaning them. Never point the handle down. Doing so can cause the water to loosen the glue on the handle.

Lip Care

Just like the rest of your body, your lips need TLC too. Whether you are a fan of lipsticks, tints, balms, glosses, or nothing at all, you can easily keep your lips looking and feeling great.

Exfoliating your lips removes dry cells, making your lips smoother. You can do this by gently massaging your lips with warm water and a very soft toothbrush. Or you can make a simple paste with brown sugar and a few drops of water. Gently massage the paste onto your lips, then rinse with plain water.

Keep your lips moisturized. After exfoliating, apply a thin layer of a light lip balm. I also like to use Vitamin E oil. No lip balm or Vitamin E oil? I have been known to use a light layer of olive oil when I'm out of them.

Your lips will not only look better, they will feel better.

My Basics

Some days I just don't feel like dealing with my makeup at all, but I don't want to face the world with a "naked face." On these days I use what I consider my basics...foundation, blush, mascara, and lip balm.

After applying my foundation, I apply my blush as normal. Then I use my blush to give just a hint of colors on my eyes. I follow up with a swipe of masacra on my lashes. Then end with applying lip balm.

I personally use Light Beige Foundation, Cool Kiss Blush, Chocolate Brown Mascara.

New to mineral makeup? The "basics" are a good starting point to try out mineral makeup!

Skin care

When it comes to your face, your makeup can only do so much. Proper skin care is very important.

1. Always wash your face with a mild soap or facial wash. My favorite to use on my face is baby bath. Not only is it mild, it gets all of the dirt and makeup off.
2. Exfoliate a few times a week to remove dead skin. There are many products out there you can buy for this purpose, but I like to get mine right out of my kitchen. I mix a bit of baking soda (just a tiny bit will do) with my face cleaner, then use as I normally would.
3. Tone. Again, there are many toners available to buy, but again, I get mine right from my kitchen. I fill a small bottle with half water and half Apple Cidar Vinegar. Then apply as any other toner. I have also grated a cucumber then used the juice as a toner, and like that as well.
4. Moisturize. Although there are many, many, many choices at the store, I choose to save my money. I instead invest in many aloe vera plants. I just cut off a leaf and use that in place of moisturizer. In my opinion, it works better than pricey moisturizers. If you can't find any aloe plants anywhere, you can get a bottle of aloe from your local health food store.
5. Using a mask once or twice a week also helps. There are masks available, depending on your skin type. I have sensitive and acne prone skin. One "mask" I have found that works for me is plain honey. Yep, the kind you buy at the grocery store. I just warm it a bit, then apply to my face, then rinse off after 15-20 minutes.

It can seem like a lot, but the only things you need to do every day (morning and night) is cleanse, tone, and moisturize. Once you get into a routine of doing it, it will take all of 5 minutes to do. When doing the mask, whichever you decide on, do something relaxing for yourself for those 15 or so minutes, like read, or watch your favorite television show.

Containers are often made based on volume, not weight. For example: the 1 gram jars are sold to us as 5 gram jars because most products that are sold in them weigh more than mineral makeup. We won't tell you or insinuate that we're giving you 5 grams of mineral makeup just because it's in a 5-gram jar. Everything is based on product weight.Some minerals weigh more than others, this is why we hand-fill and weigh every jar.

Primer also helps foundation, blush, and shadow last longer. It also acts as a defense against the daily stress of the environment.

Why I wear Affordable Mineral Makeup™

I have tried various brands of mineral makeup over the last few years that I bought at the store. All of them had a couple of things in common. I never could find the right color. I either ended up with a color that was too light, or too dark, or too yellow, or too pink. The ones from the store didn't mix well to make my own shade either. So I always ended up with different containers of this mineral makeup doing nothing but taking up space. Not only that, but when I used them the foundation would give me horrible acne and horrible rashes. The eye shadows would make my eyes red and watery. I had just about given up on mineral makeup, but then I found Affordable Mineral Makeup™. With Affordable Mineral Makeup™ you are able to order sample sizes of any color to try BEFORE you order a larger size. If you don't find your right shade with Affordable Mineral Makeup™, then they colors easily mix together to make your own shade. And Affordable Mineral Makeup™ offers more shades than other mineral makeups. It also does not make my acne worse, give me rashes, or irritate my eyes.

Affordable Mineral Makeup™ only contain Titanium Dixoide, Mica, Iron Oxides, and Zinc Oxides. The blue and purple shades do also contain ultramarine blue. That's it! Only 4 ingredients more most of the products, and 5 ingredients for the blue and purple shades!

While the "mineral makeup" you find in store contains MANY ingredients. Some of these ingredients are known to clog pores or to be skin irritates. Ingredients like Bismuth Oxycholoride, which in not only a pore clogger but a skin irritant that is related to Arsenic in it's unrefined form! Another in the "mineral makeup" found in stores is Imidazolidinyl Urea, which is a Formaldehyde releasing agent. Another ingredient found in them is Dimethicone, that coats the skin, therefore trapping anything and everything under it, and not allowing the skin to breath. That's almost like putting a sheet of plastic wrap over your face! Yet another ingredient in the "mineral makeup" that you find in stores are Paraben Preservatives such as Methyl, Propyl, Ethyl, and Butyl. These preservatives are known to be toxic if swallowed or inhaled and are known to cause irritation to eyes and skin.

Affordable Mineral Makeup™ does NOT contain any of these skin irritants!
