Cream Mineral Eyeshadow/Eyeliner
So for the first recipe which I am going to post I wanted to show you how to make a cream mineral cosmetic that does not have all the multiple toxins of the ones that you would find in the drugstore. This cream is light and silky, just be aware that because it does not have alcohol in it, it will not dry as fast as others do. The best way to apply it is with a wedge shaped bristle brush. I also like to use my "sable cream eyeliner" for my eyebrows for a little natural color.
Cream Mineral Eyeshadow/Eyeliner
4 Tb Organic Jojobba oil
1 tsp emulsifying wax (find a non toxic vegetable one)
1 tsp Beeswax or Candeilla Wax
1 tsp Carnauba Wax
1/2 tsp Grapeseed oil
9 tsp chosen mineral makeup color blend
1/4 tsp Vitamin E oil.
1/4 tsp Rosemary Extract
1/4 tsp Grapefruit Extract
1/4 tsp essential oil blend of your choice
Directions: Sterilize all equipment and use gloves and goggles when making an cosmetic preparation.
In a double boiler over medium heat melt your waxes and stir with a whisk until they are liquid and smooth. Add Jojobba oil and grapeseed oil.Whisk about 5 minutes until slightly frothy but well combined. Take off the heat and set aside 5-10 minutes to cool. Add chosen mineral makeup blend vitamin E. oil, extracts, and essential oils of your choice for scent.
While pourable fill a disposable platstic pipette (small size) with your product and fill 5 gram mineral makeup pots about 1/2 way full. Do not put the cover on until they have hardened and cooled.
To use: Using a small wedge-shaped bristle cosmetic brush, lightly dip into your cream and apply as an eyeliner, as a cream eyeshadow, or as an eyebrow color that looks completely natural! Enjoy

A Site For Natural Cosmetic Making!!! And since I love to cook....that as well!!
Howdy! my name is Jenny Bingham. I am the founder of Jenuine Beauty Inc. After 9 years of experience formulating my own 100% non-toxic cosmetics, perfumes, aromatherapy, and healthy extracts. I have decided to share my recipes, and my ups and downs in everyday formulating and if it is something that you want to do yourself...awesome! I also love to cook and am a Julia Child at heart! So my favorite recipes will be here as well. Enjoy!
My philosophy is that health comes naturally and beauty should come the same way...and if you can't read the ingredients label then likely there is a whole lot of things in there that you should not be putting on your skin!
On my website I have over 100 products which I have formulated out of concern for the toxicity of the mainstream beauty industry and the severe toll that is has taken upon our health. Everything I make has to have a purpose more than just enhancing your beauty; it must also address an area of health concern...whether that be acne, arthritus, pain, ect...Enjoy!
