Studio Direct's Custom Blended Mineral Foundations are manufactured with the highest quality ingredients and when applied offer a silky smooth finish. They do not contain any Bismuth Oxychoride, which has caused adverse reactions in many users. We also do not use any preservatives, fillers, dyes, oils or talc. We also do NOT use Methylparaben or Trisodium in our Bare Mineral Makeup! Our high quality minerals protect, nourish and enhance your complexion. Our Custom Blended Bare Mineral Foundations contain Titanium Dioxide, Zinc Oxide, Iron Oxides, Mica and Ultramarine Blue. This is the complete ingredients list for our Bare Mineral Makeup Foundations. The Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide are anti-inflamatories and help sooth irritated skin in addition to providing sunscreen properties. The Zinc Oxide has antimicrobial properties. The Ultramarine Blue, which is a non-irratating and non-sensitizing mineral has excellent heat stability, light fastness and solvent resistance. It is also a necessary component in a balanced palette of warm and cool colors. Ultramarine Blue is famous for having been the most expensive pigment in the 14th and 15th centuries and today it still reigns supreme. We use Micas that are specially coated with Titanium Dioxide (which adds even more sunscreen protection), as opposed to the inferior less expensive uncoated micas, which are known as Serecite Mica. This also gives our foundations a more beautiful finish. Please be sure to check the ingredients as you shop for mineral makeup. You will find our mineral foundations to have the highest quality, superior consistency and long lasting semi permanent qualities due to our exclusive formulations.

Here is an unsolicited comment from Grace: JOYCE! :) Can I just tell you that you have a customer for life?! I told you I used to use B.E. and I always thought that it was just my oily skin that was the problem. My entire family is very "shiny", so after I would use that, I would have to put on something like Cornsilk (Mineral Veil didn't cut it, even when I put it on twice like the instructions said to..) to matte my skin down. Needless to say, an hour later I was "shiny" again. It was a never ending cycle and then of course my face got all "cakey" by the end of the day. I got your product yesterday and not only was the coverage better using the same amount as B.E., but I'm sitting at work an hour later and my skin is still fairly matte. NOT SHINY! Woo Hoo!!! I'm completely sold and now I have to go tell all my friends who I got started on mineral foundation. :) -Grace PS- Sometimes, 3 months of research pays off in a positive way for once! :) Here is an unsolicited comment from Colleen: This is a great mineral foundation at a great price! Gives a soft, matte finish Very generous "try me" size. Foundation gives excellent coverage :-).
