Organic Cosmetics

Have you ever wanted to make your own organic cosmetics but didn't know how? The art of making your own organic cosmetics is a fine art but one essentially anyone can do with the right organic ingredients and recipe.

Mineral Blush

Mineral blush with liven and brighten up those gorgeous cheeks and is designed for lighter cheeks and skin tones.


This recipe will give you about 3/4 of a teaspoon of blush which should last you a number of months and should take you around 15 minutes, at the most, and will last 10+ years in your organic makeup kit.

NB: 1 measurement is = to 1/8 of a universal teaspoon

  • 2 measurements of Organic Bordeaux Mica
  • 1 measurement of Organic Oriental Beige Mica
  • 1/2 measurement of Organic Splendid Blue Mica
Method
  • Mix all ingredients in a bowl with a spoon and mix well. If you are left with any chunks, keep mixing until they have blended into mixture. Crush and grind with pestle and mortar
  • Put all ingredients into a suitable container for use
  • If you would like a more earthy and deeper colour, replace Organic Bordeaux Mica with Organic Sienna Mica - this will give you a warmer look
If you are looking for a certified organic skin rouge, by Lavera, check this out.
