The Bare Minerals broke my face out so I had to return it.I've used Everyday Minerals (everydayminerals.com) for a month, and just love it! It's also about half the cost of the BE. The Everyday does NOT have the bismuth chloride in it. They have a free sample kit ($3.97 postage) that's fantastic. Do try the Everyday. The lighter shades run really light, BTW.

In the Faux Tan what are all the ingredients. Is the dark color from walnut oil? Please let me know.

I too am concerned about ingredients, particularly the use of paraben preservatives after the '04 Japanese study showing increased aging of the skin when exposed to sunlight after a tiny amount of paraben (a preservative in most cosmetics) was included. Bare Escentuals says they are preservative free, but a list of the ingredients in Mineral Veil says that they use both Methylparaben and Propylparaben in that. Any insights?

About a year ago when I started using mineral makeup, I did not buy Bare Minerals because of the bismuth oxychloride. I had a mild reaction to it, and I did not like the shiny, unnatural glow it gave my face. Now I use Afterglow Cosmetics (www.afterglowcosmetics.com) and silk powder makeup from Aubrey Organics (www.aubrey-organics.com, search: silk powder). They are amazing. Try them for yourself, and I think you'll feel better about what you are putting on your skin.

"Nano damage" is very real. Particulate size is very important in measuring air quality. Particles 2.5 microns and smaller are considered fine particles. Nanoparticles are smaller than this and can enter the lungs. It's not "pseudo" at all and more important than complex interactions with traces of other things.

Bare Escentuals foundation does contain Bismuth- it's listed in the BE website under the product. The mineral veil does not contain parabens- not sure where Heather found her ingredient list but this is copied from the BE site under mineral Veil spf 25: Titanium Dixoide, Zea Mays (Corn Starch), Corn Starch Modified, Zinc Stearate, Silica, Magnesium Stearate. May Contain: Titanium Dioxide, Iron Oxides Hope this helps :)

I don't know about the nano-stuff, but I use Aromaleigh and the color I use does not have Bismuth Oxychloride in it.I've been using 1P and I just ordered the Alabaster and the Metamorphosis.www.aromaleigh.com

I sometimes purchase this at Wholefoods and the supplement personnel told me that it used to contain Titanium Dioxide but no longer does. I wish Spry would make an announcement somehow to say yay or nay because this is annoying. I can say this, it is NOT on the list of ingredients.

Several website will answer your question: http://www.pureformulas.com/customers-testimonials.html#sthash.YAkAB1N4.dpbs http://www.sinussupport.com/education/sea-salt/ Hope this will help,as I understand regular table salt has ingredients that will stinging and has no more important minerals.

This is natural. I have to havwe every thing organic. I have severe allergies and do not have a problem using this product. I don't know what the nano-particle means but this is super fine micronized. Particle size is 200nm. Hope this helps.

No nano particles. From their website: Essential Depots Zinc oxide does not contain nano particles (defined as particles less than 100nm). Essential Depot particle size ranges from 108nm to 132nm. With an average particle size of 120nm. Essential Depot specifically selected its Zinc Oxide to have the ideal particle (uncoated) for sunscreen (Lowest whitening effects while still being safe).

Water is a "chemical" technically but I guess you mean "harmful chemicals" and the listed ingredients read well enough (Phenoxyethanol is controversial but any product with water has to have a preservative) The bigger problem is this brand has other products that are obviously missing certain ingredients and only list good ones so I do not trust "Pure Body Naturals" to have honest ingredients lists.

Amazingly, the ingredients are not listed on the box. Not certain how this is possible since the FDA and the environmental protection agencies require all products to list their ingredients on the label. The statement on the box reads: "Need ingredient information visit Oxiclean.comHere's what the website states: The OxiClean™ formulation is actually a combination of ingredients, the chief ingredient being hydrogen peroxide.

I am 52 and started using bare minerals about a year ago. It does provide a natural looking cover that doesn't look chalky or cakie. It also reduces the appearance of pores. I have large pores and have gotten compliments from my teenage daughter that they aren't noticeable now.Needless to say " I really like Bare minerals!"

I feel like I am in chemistry class again. LOL... But to answer this I am ONLY giving my opinion and this is more a direct question for the manufacturer of this product which would be Chemical Guys. There are no lists of ingredients on the bottle that I have purchased but here is my opinion. Silane is of practical interest as a precursor to elemental silicon. So I can not answer if there is silane in "Black Light". As for the second part of your question, silica the dioxide form of silicon, SiO 2, occurring especially as quartz sand, flint, and agate: used usually in the form of its prepared white powder chiefly in the manufacture of glass, water glass, ceramics, and abrasives.I have not found that there are any forms of abrasives in "Black Light" therefore it follows under the class of a wax and not a polish or any form of rubbing compound even in it's lowest class of abrasiveness. "Black Light" comes with only application instructions and "In the event of an emergency" follow these set of Poison Control guidelines. I have been using this product for little over a year now and I use it as it is intended. As a finish to all that you can do to restore your original finish and with EXCEPTIONAL results I may add. If you simply follow the directions that Chemical Guys have set forth you will have unbelievable results. I hope this has helped you in a small way but again, if you contact Chemical Guys, I think they are bound by full disclosure on answering your question. I only wish I was more helpful to you.

Tim, you may have to look elsewhere online for that info. I will say though, as a vitamin expert this is one of the finest mineral products I have ever used. Still using it. What makes it different is NOT the label, its the QUALITY which imho is superior to other brands.

The label says Made of 100% minerals. Tate's the Natural Miracle Odorless Nail Polish Remover has no dyes, no gluten, no iodine, no glycols, no sulfates, no parabens no phosphates, no pesticides, no animal testing and no fragrance. I have used this for years and my nails are fine. I am highly allergic to chemicals in most products and especially acetone. That is why i bought Tate's. I was nervous to try this but it has never caused even a hint of trouble for me.

This products list all ingredients. Unfortunately for you, this has iodine (sodium) quite a bit.When you don't see ingredients on package, I ask the maker. They may not answer all details to protect business. But, if you ask if xxx is in it or not for specific reasons, they tend to answer.

The two products have totallydifferent ingredients (BFI Powder: boric acid, magnesium carbonate, talc, bismuth formic iodide, bismuth subgallate, zinc phenolsulfonate, potassium alum, thymol, menthol, eucalyptol; Columbia Powder: zinc oxide and phenol). Having said that, and not knowing the purpose that you want it for, I can say that both my wife and I swear by Columbia Antiseptic powder for virtually all our skin problems. It seems to cure allergic reactions, heat rashes, contact dermatitis and other skin problems in just a day or so. The only problem we have with it is that it's rather expensive, and very few people carry it. Thank God, Amazon does.

I chose this brand because it was recommended by DR. OZ because I believe the ingredients are non toxic. Titanium dioxide and zinc oxide are the active ingredients. They provide a clear sunscreen due to the active ingredients as opposed to other more toxic white sunscreens that are actually just a white reflective coating for your skin. I have used this on my face for well over a year and highly recommend it.

I purchased what I thought was bare minerals on amazon trying to save money. It was fake. As soon as I put it on I noticed the coverage was not the same at all. The color was off and my face started itching like crazy. I googled it and found this helpful site to determine that mine was counterfeit: http://www.ebay.com/gds/Bare-Escentuals-vs-Bare-Minerals-/10000000176613767/g.html

It is made from plant based minerals. Lisen I recommend getting the liquid version of this product. It is the same price and has the exact same ingredients. This is the best stuff you will find for its purpose. What makes this product unique is that your body can obsorb 100 percent of it versus 30 to 70 percent for other products. The ingredients are posted on the website to I suggest you look there
