Afterglow Mineral Cosmetics are ideal for sensitive skin because we use minimal ingredients and avoid sensitizers like bismuth oxychloride, talc, dyes and mineral oil. All Afterglow products are fragrance free except for the Natural Lip Gloss which contains 'natural flavors' of organic fig and organic vanilla extracts.

Rosacea & eczema: Afterglow minerals are soft and soothing for rosacea and eczema suffers. Many mineral cosmetics actually aggravate skin conditions due to the bismuth oxychloride. Afterglow does not contain this ingredient and remains the best choice for women with skin issues.

Patch Test:  There is usually someone that is allergic to almost everything. While we formulate our products to be especially gentle and stand behind them with our 30 day money back guarantee, we recommend that you perform a patch test first. The patch test can ensure that our products will work for you. If they don't, please feel free to return the product or products for a full refund.

Refresh Cosmetics Regularly:  Throw out old cosmetics which can become spoiled, rancid or contaminated with use. Lipsticks, glosses, foundations, setting powders, blushes and bronzers should be refreshed every six months to one year. Eye make-up should be refreshed every six to eight months. Ensuring you have new, clean eye products is especially important due to the delicate nature of the eye.

Date Opened: We suggest you use a paint pen or permanent marker to mark your cosmetics with the date that you opened them. This is an easy way for you to know when you should swap out old cosmetics for new ones.

Keep it clean: Clean cosmetic brushes often. Cosmetic brushes can easily harbor bacteria, germs and dirt from falling on the floor, touching dirty counter tops, or being handled by unclean hands. We suggest you clean your cosmetic brushes and sponges at least twice a month.
