It’s completely paraben-free. It’s not made from petroleum or other unnatural chemicals. When you choose organic lipstick, you get nothing but natural ingredients, including beneficially healing herbs and lotions.

You shouldn’t have to sacrifice the health of your lips for beauty. With lipstick made from natural ingredients, you enjoy that same healthy gleam of other lipsticks, but with the ingredients to protect and heal your skin as well as make it beautiful. We all need to be concerned with what we put on our bodies, especially our lips. With organic lipstick, you don’t compromise your health for beauty. In fact, you heal and protect your skin with naturally healing agents, making your lips supple and young for years to come.

Healthy skin is beautiful skin. As we treat our lips with natural products, our skin doesn’t age or dry out as fast. In fact, natural products enhance our lips, making them look younger and suppler through the healing benefits of natural herbs.

Don’t compromise the health of your lips for beauty. When we use lipstick that’s natural, we not only make them look more beautiful, but also protect them against the ravaging effects of aging and the sun. It’s like wearing lip balm that’s also a beautiful cosmetic, the best of both worlds for the healthy, beautiful lips.

Curiosity killed the cat. When I first heard of the collaboration between Mac Cosmetics and Hello Kitty, I just had to give it a try.

Combining the stylish youthfulness of the Hello Kitty world with the colorful sophistication of Mac makeup, the Hello Kitty Collection is a high-end line of brightly colored cosmetics that’s more fun to collect than a girl’s night out.

Really, this is a cosmetics line that gets a girl noticed. The Hello Kitty Collection introduces a new blend of youth to the cosmetics world, a fun-seeking spirit that’s carefree and open to possibilities.

This line of Mac Cosmetics features two collections, Hello Kitty Colour Collection and the higher end Hello Kitty Couture. Both bring a hip element of youthful style to the world of makeup, imaginative yet adventurous and creative at the same time.

The Hello Kitty Mild collection features eye shadows, eye liner and lipstick in a more subdued color line that subtly suggests innocence with an openness to fun. It’s a purrfect line for that innocent look that’s so good at being bad.

Every good girl needs her thrill, a dance with temptation that’s innocent and wild at the same time. The subtle colors don’t speak too loudly, but their message is clear. For a mild style that still not afraid to get what it wants, the Hello Kitty Mild collection brings out your subtle side while still maintaining that sense of stylish fun.

Of course, there are nights when subtlety goes right out the window. Sometimes you want to hit the club scene boldly and turn heads. If you like being the burning center of a party, it might be a night that calls for a dash of the Hello Kitty Wild collection, which features brighter colors for when you want to reach out of your skin.

Adored by women throughout the world for its wild sense of style, the Hello Kitty Wild line breaks boldly out of the mold, sleek, luring with a dash of unpredictability.

Just released for this past Valentine’s Day, the Hello Kitty makeup line is so fresh, it’s all the cosmetics world can talk about. Since announcing the partnership last November, Mac has created a stir in the cosmetics industry.

Finally the sophistication of Mac makeup and the stylish fashions of the Hello Kitty world have merged, and the results are rather surprising.

I’ve found the colors enticingly subtle, the sort of tender boldness that’s not too over the top. There’s enough variety in the blends to fit any type of mood, whether calm and subdued or more daring and dashing. It’s a youthful cosmetics line that’s creative and fun, perfect for when you want to get out on the town and just be free.

When we choose to use natural, organic makeup, we choose to care for the health of our bodies. Natural cosmetics and skin care go hand in hand. Makeup should not only make us look beautiful, it should enhance the health of our skin, keeping it soft and supple, protected against age and parching.

Not all makeup brands are the same. Many contain harsh synthetics and petroleum that are unnatural for our skin. Though they may make us look good for an evening on the town, they are silently and secretly poisoning our flesh, making us old before our time. Some contain harsh dyes. Others contain common allergens that may make our faces break out into a constellation of pimples.

But we have a choice. Choose natural cosmetics, and skin care will be a beneficial side effect. Mineral cosmetics contain natural minerals from the earth which work to heal our skin and protect it against the natural ravaging effects of age. Cosmetics heavy in minerals are ideal for sensitive skin, as well as for concealing redness and blemishes. Deep Sea Cosmetics even contain the minerals of the Dead Sea, known for thousands of years for its healing benefits.

Natural cosmetics penetrate deep within our skin with healing properties. They work to not only firm the body, but safeguard against age, wrinkles and stretch marks. When we care for our skin at the same time we are making ourselves beautiful, we are preserving beauty and protecting our health in the process.

Makeup can be naturally enhanced with herbs that work to cleanse and heal the essence of your skin. Lavander helps to normalize skin type and improve cell regeneration and healing. Patchouli is a natural at reducing redness. Cedarwood is ideal at easing skin eruptions and itchiness. Green tea extract is ideal at reducing eye puffiness, and is a great natural additive to eyeliner.

Above all, choose a makeup that is free of parabens, perfumes, dyes, and synthetic oils. Research the brand and make sure it has never been tested on animals. If you are a practicing vegan, you might want to research which brands are not made from animal products so that your makeup doesn’t conflict with your beliefs.

We use cosmetics to look beautiful, but if we are going to continue to look gorgeous, we need to have healthy skin. Taking care of our skin begins with our cosmetics. Use natural herbal blends that not only bring out your color but heal blemishes and dryness as well.

Often, we may have suffered these breakouts for quite some time before we realized it was really an allergic reaction, instead blaming them on stress or a persisting skin tendency left over from our teenager years. If you suffer from pimple outbreaks or skin blemishes long after the normal ages of puberty, perhaps you’re experiencing an allergic reaction from your makeup.

Unfortunately, there are no government regulations regarding hypoallergenic makeup, and many brands turn it into little more than a marketing term which may sound nice but still contain harmful, allergic ingredients.

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) cautions that no federal standard or regulations exist governing the use of the term “hypoallergenic,” so cosmetics that claim to be hypoallergenic may be far from so, and still contain the irritating ingredients that cause your skin to break out like a teenager all over again.

How do you tell the real from the fake? How do you know which hypoallergenic brand is real, and which is more than an advertisement waiting to turn your face into a road sign of pimples?

Stick with known name companies that have a reputation for quality and concern for common allergens. Research the makeup brands on the Internet, reading up on consumer reviews on that product to see what experiences other people have had with the product. Learn what sort of ingredients are affecting your skin with the advice of a doctor, and then study the ingredients of the cosmetics, weeding out those brands that carry the allergic ingredients.

Or just give the brand a try, but pay attention to the makeup’s effects on your skin. And this is no rocket science..if pimples or blemishes occur, cease use of the brand immediately, and if your skin responds pleasantly,  free from irritation, use that brand regularly. Once we’ve found a good thing, ladies, we shouldn’t let it go.

Treat your skin as if it were your baby. The more we care for ourselves the more we’ll have that baby-skin touch and the younger we’ll feel. Makeup shouldn’t irritate our skin, but instead interact with it to soften it and illuminate it. With careful research into hypoallergenic brands, a girl can experience the best of both worlds: the beautiful richness of cosmetics and healthy, blemish- free skin that will feels soft , young and beautiful for years to come!

Often, those pimples and boils that we like to blame on stress are the very reactions to the synthetic makeup we use in a vain attempt to cover them up. Like a sly twist of fate, ladies, the remedy is often the very cause of what irritates our faces into all-out breakouts. But to care for your skin like your body’s largest organ deserves, use a natural mineral foundation makeup, allowing crushed, purified minerals to sooth and heal our complexion to its natural health. Purified, non-micronized minerals such as zinc oxide, titanium dioxide, mica powder, ultramarines and iron sooth and medicinally heal the skin. Since the minerals are larger than your pores, the skin doesn’t fully absorb the minerals, making them completely harmless to it’s health.

Those afflicted by troubled skin will often find surprising relief through a regular application of mineral foundation makeup. Being free from the synthetic chemicals found in more unnatural foundations, a mineral foundation provides that healing layer naturally, enriched with natural irons and zinc that enrich the body. Our skin naturally absorbs over 50 percent of what’s applied to its surface, so be careful of the harmful synthetics that may be in your makeup.

GeoFlair features a rich line of mineral cosmetics, featuring excellent cleansers and exfoliators that help to naturally heal the skin. Mineral Pure Makeup also features a natural line of 100 percent pure makeup, including natural skin care products, multi-purpose eye shadow and other natural concealors.

Not only is a natural mineral foundation better for our skin, but it feels silkier and sexier at the same time. It makes the skin feel soft, breathable, and helps to return moisture to drying and aging types. It helps the skin feel smoother, younger, more alive. Wear it once, and you’ll feel like a belle at the ball… wear it regularly, and you’ll enjoy living like an absolute queen!

That’s why makeup train cases are essential for the traveling woman. You never know what colors you are going to need until you are sitting before that cosmetics mirror and trying them on for size. Applying makeup is an art, and like any art, the muse is always changing.. a color that may be right for one moment may not fit our mood for another.   As ladies, we need to be able to think on our feet, and that includes having all options at our fingertips, no matter how far away our home makeup bureau may be.

Makeup train cases make all of your makeup options transportable. It’s like a traveling suitcase specifically suited for your cosmetics. Never again leave behind that perfect shade of lip gloss you didn’t realize you’d need until the last minute ! Keep every shade of blush, every color of lip stick on you whenever you travel because you never really know what you’ll need until you get there.

Why limit your options? As women, it’s only natural that we leave nothing behind. When you are traveling for business, there’s too much at stake, as first impressions are often key to any business deal. If your traveling for pleasure, you want to look your best, and that means keeping all of your cosmetics on hand, whether your on a cruise halfway across the Mediterranean or shopping for Venetian rugs on the other side of the world.

Ladies, we might as well admit we are all about luggage and use this to our advantage. Keep all options of beauty available. We never know what we’ll need from one moment to the next, what color, shade or blush fits our fancy of beauty at that moment. By having all of our makeup on hand no matter where we are, we’ll never have to compromise our beauty again because we left a particular cosmetic at home.
