Savvy Minerals Makeup by Young Living!

The introduction of the Savvy Minerals by Young Living makeup line marks a pivotal point in the beauty industry. Women are demanding better products, not just for their families and homes but for themselves too. We are educating ourselves and raising our expectations for the products we use.

The average woman is exposed to 500 harsh chemicals a day and 80 of those exposures happen before breakfast. Did you know our skin absorbs 60-70% of what we apply topically? That's eye-opening and a bit frightening, guys! This exposure comes from numerous items, and beauty products and makeup are most definitely included.

Just because it's sold on the shelf doesn't make it safe.

Did you know the FDA doesn't approve the ingredients in our cosmetics? They only take action against them after they've been found to be harmful, adulterated or misbranded.

The U.S. based non-profit environmental advocacy group Environmental Defense tested 49 different cosmetic items including foundations, concealers, powders, blushes, eye liners, eye shadows, mascaras, lipstick and lip glosses and found a great deal of heavy metal contamination in nearly all of them: lead, arsenic, beryllium, thallium, and cadmium. Personally, I don't want any of that in my cosmetics, and definitely not on my skin or in my body.

So how do Savvy Minerals compare?

You will not find any of these in Savvy:

• Parabens

• Bismuth

• Talc

• Petrochemicals

• Lake dyes/lead

• Nanoparticles

• Gluten (not currently certified gluten-free, but ingredients do not contain gluten)

• Fragrance

What else do we love about Savvy Minerals besides how clean the ingredients are?

• You don't need much of the minerals at all, so they last a long time. (Tip: Instead of peeling the sticker back to reveal all of the holes, use a pin to poke a few of the holes...that way you won't shake too much product into your cap! You really don't need much!)

• It's buildable. I only do one light layer of foundation because I actually love my freckles and don't want to cover them fully. You can apply as many layers as you want to get the coverage you want though! (I use Misting Spray to apply, but if you want liquid foundation, you can mix the foundation with YL moisturizer to apply!)

• This makeup takes multi-tasking to another level. You can use the Diamond Dust Veil (designed to use all over your face after you are done with your makeup) to brighten the corners of your eyes and as a type of "fiber lash," if you will, with your mascara! You can use the multitasker (apt name!) for your brows and for eyeliner. (You can use the multitasker dry for a smoky look, or use the misting spray or water with it to create a liquid liner.) This line is so DIVERSE! Blush for eye shadow? Sure, why not?!

• It highlights your natural beauty! Look at those beauties above! No matter how they choose to do their Savvy (as natural or as glam as they want), their natural beauty shines through!

• It feels light on your face, like you aren't wearing makeup.

• Prices are comparable to other natural brands!
