Mineral makeup works best!
Wondering what all the craze about mineral makeup is? Many people find out about mineral makeup when they want to go “green” with their cosmetics. With the current interest in safe, natural and organic products, the mineral makeup approach is very popular, and the category appears to be continuing to grow.
Minerals such as iron oxides, talc, zinc oxide, and titanium dioxide are micronized, or ground and milled, into tiny particles to create mineral makeup. Mineral makeup micronized up to six times leave minerals larger so they can go on the skin with light to medium coverage. Products micronized 12 times create fine sized particles that sit closer together and offer more coverage.
If you suffer from skin sensitivity, mineral makeup may be a good option for you. However, you will need to be a savvy consumer and look at the list of ingredients to make sure you are getting 100% mineral makeup. The general rule of thumb is the less ingredients the better. Mineral makeup is no magic bullet and won’t solve all your skin issues. For many women, traditional makeup works well and often gives you more of a flawless face then mineral makeup. The powder in mineral makeup absorbs oil in your skin causing the color to appear slightly darker and clumpy.

Chicago MIgraine Botox Treatments
When you think of Botox, the first thing that you think of is wrinkles but did you know that Botox is also a great way to treat migraines.
Botox treatments for migraines are typically given once every 3-6 months. The doctor will inject multiple doses of the medicine in specific points along the bridge of the nose, temples, forehead, back of the head, neck, and upper back. The injections are almost painless and you might experience a very small sting at each injection. The process is very quick, each session lasts about 10 to 15 minutes. The goal of the injections is to reduce the symptoms caused by a migraine headache.
It may take up to 14 days for you to feel relief. Some people may not experience complete relief with their first set of injections. Additional treatments are sometimes more successful.
Botox is one of many treatment options available for people with chronic migraines. Before beginning any kind of treatments always consult with your physician.
