One of my favorite beauty blog friends sent me an email telling me about a new ethnic makeup brand called B.l.a.c. Minerals.
B.l.a.c. Minerals was created in an effort to produce pure and natural cosmetics for women of color. Many ethnic women complain about not being able to find high quality makeup that works well with our skin type and complexions, and allow us to create a variety of looks.
B.l.a.c. Mineral’s mission is to provide natural, organic, and holistic skin care and cosmetics to the ethnic marketplace while promoting individualistic beauty across race and place. Their brand seeks to enhance the natural beauty of women and encourage self love and confidence through the images and face of b.l.a.c. minerals.
The products which are all 100% all natural minerals include:
Organic Skin Care
Mineral Foundation
Mineral Eyeshadow
Mineral Satin Finish Blush
Mineral Setting Powder
All Natural Lip care
