Best cosmetics for sensitive skin?

I have very sensitive skin that is also very pale in color. I love the look of make-up but most make-up either makes me break out into an itchy rash or gives me pimples. I can deal with the pimples but the itchiness not so much. I have the most problems with my eye make-up and foundation but all make-up gives me trouble. What are the best inexpensive products (think Walgreens) for sensitive skin? I currently love using neutragena shimmer sheers for my eyes but I think it's discontinued.Best cosmetics for sensitive skin?
you should use bare minerals, because it is natural, and it won't clog pores. Be sure though to wash your face before you go to bed. Make up that sits on your face overnight, causes a lot of oil and acne.Best cosmetics for sensitive skin?
My picks:


1. Neutrogena


2. Almay Naturals


3. Maybelline New York Mineral makeup





Any natural or dermatologist approved makeup brand shouldn't be a problem for your skin.
Anything Neutrogena should work, since they are a good, pure name brand. They might have other eyeshadows besides your discontinued one.
almayyyyy pure blends. all natural

Any recomendations of fine cosmetic skin care lines?

I would like to start using a department store bought skin care line. (Origins, Clinique, etc) I'm wondering which is best. I have mild acne that I want to keep in check and normal skin.Any recomendations of fine cosmetic skin care lines?
i HIGHLY suggest Bare Minerals... it's the greatest make up ever made. i will never ever use anything else. it goes on silky smooth and makes your skin flawless. it actually looks like my skin is airbrushed when i put it on.





you can purchase it at Sephora.com


or go to their site - www.bareescentuals.comAny recomendations of fine cosmetic skin care lines?
Clinique is the best. Bare Minerals is the best makeup for people with mild acne and such. It covers them up without smothering them (since it's all natural) and it will help you from making your acne worse
I love the Clinique Three Step Program. It consists of a soap, in liquid or bar form, a toner, and a lotion. The can customize each step to meet the needs of your skin. It has been a while since I purchased all of them together, but think it is around $35 for the set. They also make travel sizes so you don't have to lug around 3 giant bottles anytime you go away for a weekend, and if you shop during bonus time, you get free stuff!
BARE MINERALS IS LIKE A MIRACLE IN A JAR!





YOU CAN FIND IT AT WWW.SEPHORA.COM


OR AT WWW.BAREMINERALS.COM

Are the cosmetics good for our Skin?

Just Question about cosmetics.Are the cosmetics good for our Skin?
no, our skin is a living organ, our largest one! smearing anything on it to be absorbed eventually can lead to a buildup of toxins and cause all kinds of problems, anything from dryness to wrinkles to cancer. industries are making a positive move away from carcenogens (substances known to cause cancer) but it will take a lot of time, makeup is made from everything from whale blubber to parts of afterbirth to chemicals that are toxic in larger amounts.Are the cosmetics good for our Skin?
basically no..it blocks our pores!but maybe some of it is a lil bit good to our skin like maybe they put some vit A or sumthing..but it depends on people..some people are not lazy to totally wipe off the make up from the face when they go to sleep.
I only know of one, Nicole Miller brand from Melaluca my wife uses it and cannot believe the results. It is vitamins for the skin.
No if you pile LOADS on every day, but if you have lipgloss with vitamin E it is good for your lips, same applys to lip balm and chapsticks.
Not most of the time-it really does block up u'r pores which causes zits etc. BUT there r certain kinds of makeup etc. that help stop that effect. lol
no..plugs the pores, trapping toxins inside
if u hve problem skin seek professionala advice(skin specialist) dun be spending money on items u see on eth counters...sometimes its in ur genes eat right n drink tonnes of water it does good to ur body n it beats heatiness, stay away frm the sun, dun use cosmetics if its tht bad
no because it blocks your pores but if just have to wear make-up use BARE MINERALS because it all cakey and stuff

Do you try to avoid using drugstore brand cosmetics and hair and skin care products?

Why?.Do you try to avoid using drugstore brand cosmetics and hair and skin care products?
I find other products work better for some things. I buy Bare Minerals products on my face and eyes and use a mineral facial soap, plus department store facial moisturizer, however;





I use Maybelline eye makeup remover for waterproof mascara (cheap but mostly it actually works better for waterproof mascara than either Clinique or Mary Kay). I use drugstore brands of body wash (I actually prefer Clinique, but I go through far too much body wash to buy theirs), body moisturizer (money is the big factor here). I love drugstore lipstick as a rule, usually Revlon, L'Oreal, or Milani--and the reason why is I like their colors, although I do own a couple of Clinique lipsticks.





On the other hand, I use a blonde eyebrow pencil by Mary Kay because it is frankly the only one I can find light enough with the right consistency, but I have used Revlon lip liner for years for the same reason. I go with what works best as a rule. I don't think Revlon is any harsher than Clinique or Estee Lauder when it comes to lipstick. My main consideration is what works well for me and what colors work and if I can save money, so much the better.





I've used shampoo and hair products from the drugstore, like Paul Mitchell (which used to be only at salons) and John Frieda, but really prefer to get mine from the beauty supply or my hair stylist. I was formerly a hair stylist and I really do think they are better. I never found Clinique or department stores shampoos all that good since Pantene left department stores and started to sell junkier stuff at the drugstores. Pantene used to be the Cadillac of shampoos 25-30 years ago and was only sold at the better stores. My hair is thin and fine and I have to use a lot of product so I need all the help I can get.Do you try to avoid using drugstore brand cosmetics and hair and skin care products?
no some are rated higher and have better ingredients than expensive department store items.
yea i try to avoid drugstore brands... they just dont work as well for me usually......
No. You find awesome things in drugstores, like St.Ives products.
SOMETIMES.


TRY HOME REMEDIES
Dear amanda,


There is recent evidence that DEA(diethanolamine) is a potent carcinogen found in many mainstream cosmetics and toiletries. It's a potentially cancer-causing ingredient which is readily absorbed through the skin.


With this in mind, I chose to reconsider all my beauty products hopping habits. So I shop natural. The site is www.ineways.com/givestar
i compare the ingredients. often, the name brands and generic brands are exactly the same, so i buy the generic for half the cost. works just the same

Do cosmetics such as soaps and creams containing vitamin E result to skin darkening when used?

If you want to darken your skin, I recommend Jergens Natural Glow FACE daily moisturizer. It really works. They also have it for body and thats what i use. I get compliments all the time. For more advice, email me at laurenhasspoken@yahoo.comDo cosmetics such as soaps and creams containing vitamin E result to skin darkening when used?
Chima, not to my knowledge. Vitamin E is good for the skin.

  • How can i make my skin perfect with out those cosmetics?

    my skin isnt that bad just little pimples how do i get rid of them with out using stuff like proactive, nutgina....How can i make my skin perfect with out those cosmetics?
    That's the best way. I don't have bad acne (I just get a pimple here and there or some bumps on my nose), and I've found that Clean %26amp; Clear is the best. It works really well, really fast, and it's really really really cheap!!





    I hope this helps!How can i make my skin perfect with out those cosmetics?
    Make sure you wash your skin twice daily- once int he morning and once in the afternoon. Wash your pillow cases too. Keep your hair out of your face because hair builds up oil that can contribute to acne. Try a face mask suited to your skin type once a week. Exercise, use sunscreen, and keep your hands off of your face.

    but proactive is good (Y)

    Neutrogena Skin Cosmetics? Like the SkinClearing stuff.. is it any good?

    Which do you think is better? : http://neutrogena.com/CosmeticsDetails_2鈥?/a> or http://neutrogena.com/CosmeticsDetails_3鈥?/a> OR http://neutrogena.com/CosmeticsDetails_2鈥?/a>





    I want something that'll help my skin, (i think theyre all designed to do that) but i want my skin to GLOW so the second might be the best choice, but its not non-comodogenic like the other two.. but its the one that appeals to me the most.





    help! which should i get? and has anyone tried em?Neutrogena Skin Cosmetics? Like the SkinClearing stuff.. is it any good?
    Don't waste your money on that crap! Use Proactive! I swear it works really good!Neutrogena Skin Cosmetics? Like the SkinClearing stuff.. is it any good?
    Since you are trying to acheive the glow look, number 2 is your best bet doll face.
    I have really great skin, so I don't need to use any of those types of things, but I can say from experience that Neutrogena skin care is good. I started using their Fresh Foaming Face Cleanser, their Alcohol Free Toner, and Moisturizer, and I have been very satisfied. I haven't used it very long, and I just wanted something to clean my face, but I find it refreshing and fine. If you want to try, I say go for it. It's really not that expensive, as opposed to some really nice ones that I don't think are worth your money. Try it, and if it doesn't work, well then you know and you won't make the mistake again. Seriously, it's not that expensive.
