The B.o. (bismuth Oxychloride) in Mineral Makeup!

 Some cosmetic companies will use this in their cosmetics because it is a very cheap filler. Bismuth does have binding qualities, so the makeup will hold to your skin better, however there are other products that are just as good at sticking to your skin, and are better for your skin. Other than being a cheap filler, it is highly reflective, which is something companies want, because refraction will camouflage fine lines, wrinkles and discolorations. If you use a brand with B.O. you will see a shiny or shimmery, yet heavy look. That's the bismuth oxychloride.

B.O. is a thick, heavy mineral, which makes it difficult for many people to wear. It has to be packed into your pores (thus the buffing application) otherwise it can slide off the wearers' face. The heaviness can and usually does result in clogged pores or irritated skin. B.O. often feels silky and fine between the fingers. Mineral makeup companies that don't use it have a lighter feeling makeup that will blend into the skin better and with less effort (such as SMM Cosmetics).

After using Mineral Makeup, many women experience noticable itching when they sweat. Generally this is from the chemical composition in B.O. So, if you find you're experiencing some problems with your current mineral makeup and it contains B.O., the fix could be as simple as switching to a brand that doesn't use B.O. (HINT HINT...Southern Magnolia Minerals comes to mind!!)

I hope this clears the air on B.O. lol!!

Mineral Water Benefits

 

The one thing that almost no one knows about the way that mineral water benefits us is that it’s really, really good for us. Packaged drinking water contains different kinds of gases, minerals and trace elements. The mineral content gives the water a taste along with a therapeutic value.

In cases when gas is removed from the natural mineral water with the help of effervescent, the water is labeled as natural sparkling water or sparkling mineral water. Mineral water can also be artificially created after adding carbonation and minerals.

According to the researchers the mineral water benefits us because the mineral content of the water can be very easily absorbed by the body as compared with the mineral content of the food. Minerals are absolutely essential for the optimum growth and health of the body parts, especially when such minerals cannot be successfully produced by the body.

Mineral water benefits the body by helping the body to fight against fungus and bacteria along with de-oxidizing the body. Some users even report reduced pain, swelling and aching of the muscles and the joints.

Some of the researchers have also claimed that mineral water provides the body with the same kind of nutrition when compared with vitamin supplements. It not only prevents nutrition deficiencies but also helps in making the immune system more efficient, by breaking down wastes and cleansing the body of all toxins.

The easiest way to make sure that you are getting all these mineral water benefits is to invest in one of the mineral revitalization water purification systems that are now available.

Among the minerals provided by mineral water are magnesium, chloride and bicarbonates, sulfate and silica and iron aids. By using your own revitalization system you can save money and be sure that you and your family are not missing out on any of the mineral water benefits.

Regular water purifiers remove all kinds of mineral content from the water. Thus, the water is left with nothing that can be utilized by the body, leaving your water supply lacking the mineral water benefits. Mineral revitalization water purification systems artificially add minerals back into the water.

These systems give the water the same kinds of minerals that have been removed during the filtration process.

Most of the revitalization water purification systems out there in the market promise to help the body in balancing electrolytes. These electrolytes help the body in secreting substances that have antibacterial and antifungal properties.

The drawback is that mineral water revitalization purification systems are much costly the normal water purifiers because they contain certain stones to provide the water with minerals.

You need to balance your needs against your budget. Here are five beneficial minerals that can be replaced in your drinking water by using a revitalization purification system.

1. Magnesium is one of the best stress reducer found naturally. Magnesium mainly concentrates in muscles and bones strengthening and improving the immune system. It helps in controlling blood pressure and relaxing the body.

2. Sulfate and silica are natural cleansers and help strengthen bones and teeth.

3. Sodium is very important for maintaining water balance of the body. It helps in covering the cells of the body with water.

4. Bicarbonates and chloride are known to help in digestion and maintaining regulating acids in intestines and stomach.

5. Iron aids help in delivery of oxygen through out the body and are very helpful for the people suffering from anemia.

The easiest way to take care of your body is to make sure that you have plenty of water to drink. Mineral water benefits you in a multitude of ways, so give it some serious thought.
