Mineral Makeup and Dry Skin
Posted on August 7, 2008 | Filed Under Serious Skin Care | Leave a Comment
I know many ladies with dry skin have been very frustrated in their mineral makeup adventures. For some users with dry skin their minerals dry out and they feel they are just caked on - even after using lots of moisturizer before applying. It looks like help has arrived in the form of Serious SKin Care’s Olive Oil primer for dry skin. I noticed this over on HSN and found both the primer and primer and Prominerals have received so many positive reviews they are “customer picks”.
Serious Skin Care says that the “Olive Oil Hydrating Skin Primer was formulated specially for people with dry skin, this lotion contains olive oil leaf extract and powerful skin hydrators. It helps prep the skin for makeup and helps keep it dewy and hydrated.” So far the reviews are all glowing - many by women with dry skin who siad they were never able to wear mineral makeup before.
As an added bonus - all customer picks are $5 off with coupon number C70580 through August 18th!
If you try it, please leave a review in the comments or at Mineral Makeup Reviews - Thanks!
