Question
Hi there,
In your list of ingredients for the Mineral Foundation, it says it contains sericite and mica. Aren’t those the same thing? And for your Titanium dioxide, is it micronized? I’m curious about what I’m exactly putting on my skin.
Thanks!
Answer
Hi there!
To answer your first question- There is a slight difference between sericite and mica. You are right in the fact that sericite is actually a type of mica. However, mica is listed separately due to the fact that the Mineral Foundation uses two types (sericite and another mica that is used to give the foundation its colour/tone).
Sericite, on the other hand, adds many additional benefits to the mix including: allowing the foundation to glide on smoothly, giving your skin a silky feel, helps with the “staying” power, and makes your skin look flawless all day by absorbing oils and preventing any creasing or smudging.
Second question- You can be rest assured that none of the ingredients we use are micronized.
