Whether they are our cousins, sisters, daughters or friends, we all want our teenagers to have the best memories of their life when they are young.
After all, you are only young once.
And when you are young and blossoming, makeup is almost a natural consideration.
Concerns have been raised about the ingredients found in many major makeup brands.
The informative site safecosmetics.org shares a few of those concerns. “Not listed on ingredient labels, 1, 4-dioxane is a contaminant linked to cancer found in products that create suds, such as shampoo and liquid soap.
Concerns about organ-system toxicity and endocrine disruption led the European Union to prohibit the preservative butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) from cosmetics.
Heavy metals like lead, arsenic, mercury, are contaminants found in a wide variety of personal care products including lipstick, whitening toothpaste, eyeliner and nail color.”
The list goes on. It’s an article worth reading. Here is the link.

So what is an alternative that has gained popularity?
Many advocate use of Mineral Makeup.
Mineral make-up is made up of minerals such as iron oxides, talc, zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. They are ground and milled or broken into very tiny particles to create the make-up. Traditional make up uses preservatives like parabens, chemical dyes and fragrances. Mineral make-up leaves these out.
Mineral make-up has been around for decades but these days with more women looking for natural products it’s never been more popular.
Some dermatologists recommend mineral make-up because it’s free of chemicals and additives which can cause skin irritation.

Mineral Makeup For Your Teen Daughter – Keep it Natural & Her Skin Healthy
Who doesn’t remember sneaking into their mother’s makeup? She laughed at the clown face we put on, all dressed up in her clothing and high heels. For your own teenage daughter, help her to choose makeup that looks natural and helps her avoid skin problems.
Many people develop skin problems in their teen years. That is usually when the dreaded acne shows up. For a teen girl, skin problems can really be devastating. I’m sure you know teens are extremely body conscious and that begins with their faces.
Using traditional makeup can actually exacerbate skin problems. Most makeup contains fillers and chemical dyes that aren’t compatible with acne or eczema, psoriasis or. Wearing heavy makeup can clog pores and bring about whiteheads and blackheads.
When your daughter expresses an interest in makeup, discuss using mineral makeup instead of the more traditional choices on the market. In fact, help her pick out the makeup that will look best with her skin type and tone. Turn it all into a mother-daughter bonding event.
Benefits for Your Daughter
One thing to consider with mineral makeup is the health of your daughter’s skin. Skin on the face is delicate anyway and when you are a teen, hormones put the skin through a number of tough phases. Adding traditional pore clogging makeup to the mix is not a wise choice.
Many teen girls use makeup to cover up facial imperfections such as acne or dark patches. Actually, most makeup doesn’t help, but actually hurts the skin. And for the most part, teens tend wear too much and their face begins to look artificial.
With mineral makeup, the goal is to reduce the look of skin imperfections with natural ingredients. The minerals in the best mineral makeup are natural and they melt into the skin when applied for a cleaner fresher look and feel. Anyone who sees your daughter won’t even know that she is wearing makeup.
The secret is in the mineral formulation and the application. Unlike other makeup, it doesn’t take a large amount of the mineral powder to make a difference. Using a Kabuki brush, it is easy to apply the minerals to the face quickly. Your daughter won’t need to spend a lot of extra time in the morning fixing her face before school. You and your daughter will be pleasantly surprised with how the makeup looks and makes her feel.[adToAppearHere]
