Real Life with Jenny

is Everyday Minerals! I had recently realized that all of my makeup was expiring or recently expired. So, I decided to start looking around for new makeup. Actually, I hadn’t been wearing hardly any makeup for awhile, but it’s a great thing to look and feel like a girl. Anyhow, I started checking out mineral makeups as they are more pure and natural and often organic!

I know a lot of makeups have minerals in them, but the key to getting a good makeup is that it is free of chemicals, preservatives, parabens, fragrance, talc (it stretches and clogs pores), cornstarch, and bismuth oxychloride. Another great thing would be for the brand to be a signer of the campaign for safe cosmetics. Check out cosmeticdatabase.com to find out what is in your makeup and whether or they are a signer!

Well, I found my new favorite! It’s everyday minerals. I have to say that my skin actually has never felt this good, ever. I have always had ridiculously dry skin, but after only a few days of wearing this, it feels smooth and silky soft. Oh, and the samples are free, plus shipping. If you want a sample kit, pay $3.95 shipping for 3 foundations, 1 concealer and 1 blush sample. The samples are good for a little over a week. I bought an “I Can’t Believe It” Kit about a week ago, and it arrived yesterday. Now I have all sorts of fun things to play with. Check out their makeup. It’s amazingly wonderful. Here’s what I got:
