Introducing the game-changing mineral makeup designed for both normal and post-procedure skin.



Why Should You Make The Change to Glo-Minerals Makeup?

Glo-minerals is a medical-grade makeup and skincare range, designed by dermatologists for skin care professionals and their clients. The clinically-advanced make up combines pharmaceutical grade ingredients, highly pigmented, natural minerals with antioxidants to create a range that covers, corrects and protects your skin. Furthermore, the groundbreaking skincare collection is embraced by dermatologists, plastic surgeons and skin care professionals in 40 countries around the world.

Glo-minerals makeup is comprised of only the finest ingredients and micronized minerals, through a triple milled process, to ensure that every application provides even coverage, that lasts. It includes Titanium and Zinc Oxide so as to offer complete broad spectrum UVA/UVB protection. In addition, the powerful antioxidant blend of vitamins A, C, E and Green Tea Extract provide nutrients that are vital for maintaining the health of your skin, while also assisting in combatting free radical damage. glo minerals products are also paraben, dye and perfume free, suited to the most sensitive of skin types and ages. Consequently, due to its unique formulations, these products can be used for major and minor skin complaints and conditions as well as on post-procedure treated skin.

Glo-minerals believe that makeup should be an extension of your patient's skin care regimen. It shouldn’t damage or clog the skin, but cover, correct and protect it. So it’s important to use a makeup range that makes their skin look and feel good from the inside, out. Skin health professionals love using mineral makeup because of its antioxidant benefits and broad spectrum UV protection. However, it is beneficial not just because of the ingredients it does have but those it doesn’t have too. 

Talc in Traditional Makeup

Talc is a bulking agent used in traditional makeup. It provides more product for the pigment put in, making it cost-effective for cosmetic companies. However, the inclusion of talc results in makeup users needing to apply more product for a good level of coverage. What’s more, talc particles are heavy which is why traditional makeup can often feel ‘cakey’ on the skin and coverage can be uneven. In contrast, mineral makeup does not have talc in its formulation but uses its own mineral pigments. This makes it lighter on the skin and less product is needed for good coverage.

Mineral makeup stands apart from traditional cosmetics because it doesn’t include harsh ingredients like talc. It also doesn’t have any artificial dyes or fragrances which can inflame and irritate the skin. So makeup users can avoid exacerbating existing skin conditions like acne, rosacea or dry skin. Plus, mineral makeup doesn’t settle into pores and facial lines, leaving a natural, flawless finish.

Mineral Makeup and Sun Protection

Glo-minerals makeup includes properties of titanium dioxide and zinc dioxide. These two minerals are used in physical sunscreen to provide broad spectrum UV protection and help defend skin against free radical damage. The Skin Cancer Foundation says that mineral makeup can help supplement sun protection since it includes properties of these minerals.

However, optimal coverage relies on how liberally your patient applies a product as well as the method of application. So, it is recommended to apply mineral sunscreen, SPF 30 or higher, and then follow with a layer of pressed or loose powder to get the best protection.

It’s Suitable for All Skin Conditions

Whether your patients suffer from rosacea, acne or the most sensitive of skin, they can use glo-minerals makeup. This is because it’s free of skin-irritating ingredients like talc and chemical dyes. In addition to having non-comedogenic formulas which won’t clog pores and cause further breakouts. What's more, as a non-occlusive makeup range, it allows skin to breathe and function normally so can act as protection for sensitive skin.
