A Makeup Story... How It Began...
First of all.. I am a one woman show trying to do it all! Working 24/7 to keep my customers happy, along with housework. laundry, cleaning, bills, cooking etc.. You get the idea!
Taking a look back.. After finally being settled almost 20 years from 1992 to Moving again in 2011. Then a sudden loss with a house fire in 2013 and having to move again. Skip to May of 2015 Devastated by Losing my dad suddenly to a heart attack and then FOREVER heartbroken by losing my 32 year old son in an accident exactly 2 weeks later on Memorial Day 2015... Flash forward to 2017 and moving again to my current location.. It has been a really rough go but I am still here!! Taking one day at a time.. Etsy has become my life and my rock. It keeps me sane and focused on other things.. Making all of my customer happy keeps me happy! ♥ Thank You all for hanging in there with me and continuing to support my small business. It means so much!
So... How did I get started with mineral makeup???
Well.. To make a long story short.. It all began one very early morning back in 1997.
I saw an infomercial on tv about Mineral Makeup. It was the first time I ever heard of "Mineral Makeup" It really caught my attention and 2 cups of coffee later, I ended up ordering the whole kit. A week later I had my first order of mineral makeup and some brushes that came with the kit. I started using it and really liked it except it seemed to make my face feel itchy. I loved the look and the concept but could not get past that itchy feeling. Sigh... Okay so back to my usual liquid makeup.. As some time went on I still wanted more info on the mineral makeup concept so I searched online and eventually found another website that sold something similar. It had very few ingredients and claimed to be healthy. I ordered that one and it was much better for my skin. All was good.. I was finally happy with my new makeup.. However, I was still curious to learn more about mineral makeup so I began to do even more research on how it was made and learned more about the ingredients. I bought several Do It Yourself mineral makeup kits, supplies and instructional books. 2 years later I turned a spare room into a makeup lab. I began mixing and blending and did more research on ingredients and what did what to make it even better.
My friends and family called me "The Mad Scientist"
Another year later after plenty more research, reading and learning, trial and error, testing on myself, family and friends.. Always people tested, never animal tested.
