Makeup is more than a collection of cosmetics, it should be seen as a tool to enhance and highlight one’s unique qualities, rather than as a necessity to cover up flaws. By embracing natural beauty as a foundation, makeup becomes a means to accentuate and celebrate individuality. It is a tool for self-expression and enhancement, helping women embrace their unique features and boost their confidence. Women can harness the empowering effects of cosmetics through the transformative process of applying make-up, embracing their individuality and radiate a newfound self-confidence. So, whether it is a touch of tinted moisturiser, a stroke of mascara, a swipe of lipstick, or a full makeover, it’s about celebrating the beauty-enhancing journey and embrace the confidence that comes with it.
At Healing Hands Haven, we use a range of cosmetics including mineral based to promote clean beauty and natural makeup. Since mineral makeup is free of skin-irritating ingredients like talc and chemical dyes, it is an excellent choice for those with sensitive skin. Minerals are non-occlusive, allowing skin to breathe and function normally without being suffocated. Due to the lack of parabens, binders and fillers, mineral makeup is hypoallergenic, making it the best choice for sensitive skin and those with acne concerns, rosacea, psoriasis, and eczema. Although mineral makeup works for all skin types, oily, dry, or combination, not just sensitive ones. With natural looking foundation coverage available in many forms, from sheer tinted moisturisers to full-coverage that lasts up to 24 hours.
Another advantage to using mineral foundations is the fact that most have a natural sunscreen as a main ingredient suitable for all skin types, including those with sensitive skin or rosacea, these natural sunscreen ingredients (which also have anti-inflammatory properties and a calming effect on the skin). However, your skin type will determine the way you apply your foundation. It is essential for all skin types to moisturise every morning before applying makeup, so the minerals have a hydrated surface to lie on. Many traditional foundations contain talc, which feels heavy on the skin and settles into fine lines and wrinkles, which can cause creasing. Mineral makeup is like a second skin, where you can barely feel it. Natural oxides and micro minerals cover and replenish skin, without clogging pores or weighing skin down.
Makeup transcends mere cosmetics; it’s a tool for self-expression and enhancing individuality. Instead of masking flaws, it should accentuate unique features, boosting confidence. By embracing natural beauty as a foundation, makeup becomes a celebration of self.
At Healing Hands Haven, we champion clean beauty with a focus on mineral-based cosmetics. Free from skin-irritating ingredients like talc and dyes, mineral makeup is gentle on sensitive skin. Non-occlusive and hypoallergenic, it allows skin to breathe freely, making it ideal for those with acne, rosacea, psoriasis, and eczema. While suitable for all skin types, mineral makeup provides a natural, breathable coverage from sheer tints to full-coverage options that last throughout the day.
Many mineral foundations incorporate natural sunscreen ingredients with anti-inflammatory properties, offering gentle sun protection. However, proper application is key. Always moisturise before applying makeup to ensure a hydrated base for the minerals to adhere to. Unlike traditional foundations that may feel heavy and settle into lines, mineral makeup feels weightless and blends seamlessly, covering and replenishing skin without clogging pores.
