    A natural, organic liquid or cream concealer for fair skin? I've been using mineral foundations but I'm tired of breathing the dust in and have read bad things about them so I want to try a liquid.

    what bad things have you read about minerals? i havent tried them but the way some have talked about them you'd swear they were the be all and end all

    i always thought using mineral oils on your face was supposed to irritate your skin so it seems strange that mineral powders are supposed to be good

    I've been doing loads of research, and it turns out that most mineral foundations have been ground down so finely that they contain nano-particles. If you breathe in the dust from these (which it's sometimes hard not to do when applying mineral foundations) it's as bad as breathing in asbestos and causes lung cancer. Your skin also absorbs these nano-particles and they can cause other kinds of cancer. Also, just because the ingredients are natural doesn't mean they're safe to use on skin. The mica and iron oxides, etc that mineral foundations are made of haven't had enough research done on them to be sure they're safe to put on your skin.

    Also, does anyone know of a totally organic moisturiser that doesn't contain any oil?

    Do you have any recommendations? I tried the Miessence concealer but it was absolute rubbish!
