Mineral makeup is a gentle and natural alternative to traditional cosmetics. More companies are offering mineral products on the market through mail order, drugstores and cosmetic counters. It consists of natural pigments blended with minerals, like titanium dioxide and sericite mica, to form blendable powder foundations, concealers, blushes and eye shadows. Mineral makeup is well tolerated even by sensitive skin; it is available in a wide range of colors and finishes, ranging from sheer to matte coverage.

Ribbons can add color and style to your hair, whether you have an easy-going short cut or long locks. Nearly any type or width of ribbon can be used in your hair, including grosgrain, satin, jacquard, sheer or velvet ribbons. Depending upon the ribbon you choose and the style, you can look young and fresh, cute and casual or elegant and sophisticated. Move beyond just bows with new looks for hair ribbons.

Liquid eyeliner can define your eyes, offering a longer lasting and more precise alternative to eyeliner pencils and powders. It does take a steady hand to apply liquid liner, whether you opt for a brush-style liquid or one that works more like a felt-tip pen. Practice makes perfect, and with a few tries, you’ll find that you can apply liquid eyeliner to create a dramatic cat-eye look or a classic and neutral look for day.
