buyOrganics stocks the Inkia organic mineral makeup range

(06/11/2008)

Lowering our toxic overload from personal care products must be high on everyone’s beauty agenda right now, as we aim to create a flawless finish without clogging our pores, ingesting carcinogenic ingredients and polluting the environment with manmade chemicals. What’s the point of spending all that time and effort using organic, toxin-free soaps, shampoos, deodorants and bubble baths when the moment we step out of the shower and get to the mirror, we start loading regular cosmetics onto our faces and nails?

Mineral makeup is the latest cosmetic sensation. The concept behind these flawless foundations, eyeshadows, lipsticks and even mascaras, appears to be going away from artificially produced chemicals and towards more naturally derived ingredients.

Organic mineral makeup products are made from a pure mixture of mica, iron oxide and titanium dioxide as well as a range of different organically extracted essential oils. Many high street brands are loaded with synthetic fillers and preservatives, such as talc, bismuth oxychloride, parabens and phlalates, which as well as being toxic, can irritate the skin and block pores – regardless of whether you pay budget prices in the local chemist or purse-unhappy department store prices, these products simply aren’t as pure and natural as their organically formulated counterparts.

buyOrganics have tried and tested a number of ranges before settling on organic makeup by Inika. buyOrganics stocks the entire range of Inkia makeup products, which includes twelve different shades of organic mineral foundation which will leave your complexion flawless and healthy as well as caring for the environment.

Even the most sensitive skins and those with visible facial skin complaints such as redness and rosacea not only benefit from the superior coverage of the Inika organic makeup but also the benefits of leaving pores able to breathe and the natural sun protection factor of the ingredients (iron oxide and titanium oxide are also used in organic sunscreens to provide excellent protection from both UVA and UVB rays). This means that as well as being safe internally, your foundation also has anti-ageing properties. They are so safe for use that they can even be used straight after facial cosmetic surgery.

Eyeshadows can be applied simply as powder with an eyeshadow brush or for more definition close to the lashes, or for a dramatic evening or party look, wet the brush, take off the excess water and dip into the eyeshadow powder and build up colour as you wish. You can even use the eyeshadow as an eyeliner by dampening an angled brush and using the eyeshadow wet to create perfect lines of any colour you like.

If you’re a stickler for your eyeliners though, Inika’s eyeliner pencils come in a range of shades and come with a handy sharpener on the pencil lid – again cutting down on makeup bag bulge! Say goodbye to Panda Eyes with Inika mascara – strokes on with no clogging and washes off with no need for makeup remover, and it won’t leave a speck of residue. The Inika blusher powder (four sensational shades) will complete your healthy look.

With such gorgeous products giving supermodel effects without the chemical nasties, and also vegan and organic, why would you choose anything else? The entire range of organic makeup from buyOrganics includes Inika, Miessence, and Nvey Eco and just in non-toxic nail polishes from Zoya will help you get the safest, purest beauty looks around.
