For hundreds of years, women from all over the world have been using cosmetic items which contain nature”s oil absorbers: Rice Powder and Corn Starch. However, those who battle with sensitive skin and/or food allergies have not been able to enjoy the benefits of these two natural ingredients. Literally hundreds of thousands of cosmetic items contain rice and corn derivatives “” making it difficult to find products if you have skin which is intolerant of the two. If you have used traditional cosmetics in the past, and ended up with problematic skin conditions, your troubles could be the result of a food allergy to one or both of these ingredients. Foods don”t only cause problems when ingested, they can also cause irritation when applied topically to the skin.
In the newly released Mattify! Loose Powder for Sensitive Skin, two ingredients which can potentially cause irritation to those with certain food allergies (Corn Starch and Rice Powder) have been omitted. Those who suffer from sensitive skin, highly acne prone skin, and allergies to corn or rice, can experience rashes and excessive acne breakouts from these ingredients “” which are found in nearly all cosmetic items. Customers need not worry that the lack of these two oil absorbing ingredients will interfere with the effectiveness of the product. The CEO of Mattify! Cosmetics assures consumers “a finely milled blend which includes Kaolin Clay and Silica Spheres guarantee the high rate of oil and moisture absorption that you have come to expect from Mattify! Loose Powder formulas”.
Mattify! Powder for Sensitive Skin can be applied alone, as a primer underneath foundation, and/or as a setting powder over foundation. It works in the same manner as its sister products to soak up excess oil, conceal pores, and help makeup stay streak-free all day long. All products offered by Mattify! Cosmetics are already free of irritants commonly found in other mineral makeup: talc, bismuth and pearl powder. Now, people who have sensitive skin and food allergies can also enjoy a shine-free complexion, without worry of irritation from food-based ingredients. Mattify! Powder for Sensitive Skin is now available for sale at the Mattify! Cosmetics website in regular size and super-sized sifter jars. For more information visit Mattify! Cosmetics Online.

Rice powder cosmetics is one of those topics that heated up cosmetic industry and left customers puzzled: is it good for us or isnt it? Normally, we buy our cosmetics in pretty little boxes and jars, they smell nice and make us look even prettier than we are. As we get older, we spend a little more money for it, to hide wrinkles, blemishes and other unpleasant reminders that we are mortal. But, nobody that I know reads labels of their cosmetics. Now it seems like we have to.
The debate between manufacturers of rice powder cosmetics and its critics rages because rice powder cosmetics are made from organic rice, which, according to the critics, is food source for bacteria and contributes to the formation of adult acne. Defenders of rice powder cosmetics claim that there is absolutely no scientific backing for this belief.
Acnes are caused by bacteria that normally live in our skin called Propionibacterium Acnes. When our pores get blocked by poor quality cosmetics, they cannot breathe and bacteria thrive, causing inflammation called acne.
Rice powder is very old ingredient in beauty and health products. Indians used it, and still do, in ayurvedic healing, as a poultice to soothe skin inflamed with acne or skin ulcerations on the skin. Rice Powder used in rice powder cosmetics is organic, completely natural, and it actually helps heal the skin, not damage it.
Rice powder cosmetics were made famous by Japanese geishas to create the famous porcelane white complexion with ruby red lips. Modern ladies are not going to plaster their faces like geishas, and they use rice powder cosmetics because they care for the organic ingredients in their cosmetics, and do not want to overwhelm their skin with too many chemicals. After all, we are very careful about what we eat, so we should be equally careful about what we put on our skin.
Most of us do not want to know what goes in our pretty little jars of cosmetics and powders, and all those chemicals names would not mean much to us: Bismuth Oxychloride, zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, Jojoba Oil, Lemongrass, Neem, and Ylang-Ylang, Mica or Sericite.
What we do need to know is if some of those ingredients are causing nasty little pimples which are bane of our lives and which are destroying our social lives. But, rice powder cosmetics are made of only the purest, cosmetic grade rice powder, they are light and clean and at the same time soothe our skin and make it smooth and perfect.
Rice powder cosmetics are very popular among women who have particularly sensitive skin and have bad reaction from cosmetics which contain mica. It helps that they also come in a range of colors, all in order to make us more beautiful than we are. Great!
