Why Savvy Minerals Makeup

resource preview

When Young Living was searching for the perfect mineral makeup formulation, they set the bar high and were not willing to compromise on any ingredient that could potentially be toxic or hazardous to the skin or compromise body systems.

Within the entire Savvy Minerals makeup line you will NOT find the following ingredients:

  • No Petrochemicals, including mineral oils made from petroleum that may cause breakouts, premature aging, and negatively affect your hormones and immune system. (Petrochemicals are found in many commonly available lotions, creams, ointments, and cosmetics.)
  • No Talc, which can cause skin irritation, organ system toxicity (lungs, ovaries), and is a known carcinogen. (Talc is found in many commonly available eyeshadow, blush, foundation, and face powder.)
  • No Parabans, which are known carcinogens (linked to skin cancer). It is another reproductive and development toxin.
  • No Phthalates (listed as DEP, DBP, & DEHP on labels), which are toxic to the reproductive system and affect development. Phthalates also disrupt your endocrine system and are known carcinogens.
  • No gluten
  • No nano-particles
  • No metals
  • No synthetic dyes
  • No synthetic fragrances
  • No bismuth - a popular filler found in makeup that causes skin irritation.

Pure ingredients that you will find in Savvy Minerals include:

  • Aspen Bark Extract has skin-softening properties and acts as a natural preservative
  • Kaolin clay, which sucks out impurities such as grime, dirt, pollution, and germs from the pores
  • Mica, completely safe and gives pure pigment color to your Savvy makeup
  • High-quality minerals
  • Non-nano ingredients

Today I challenge you to take a close look at the labels of the makeup that you are currently using and see if any of the above harsh ingredients show up in the product list.
