Colorescience product reviews, blogs and discussion

“Colorescience Micronized Mineral Makeup is an amazing breakthrough in natural colore cosmetics. Founded by the “matriarch” of mineral makeup, Diane Richardson Ranger, Colorescience products come from the earth’s natural minerals. The mineral pigments reflect light so that the colore seems to come from within, softening features, giving the skin a youthful glow.” 

Colorescience, whose tagline is “Colores. Corrects. Protects.”, offers a full line of mineral-based makeup and skin care. Colorescience Line Tamer Skin Brightener’s yellow mousse formula claims to be a “Non-surgical Dermal Filler for Lines and Wrinkles” by infusing skin with anti-oxidants, as well as beta-carotene and vitamin E to nourish the skin. Colorescience’s natural ingredient based-formulas also tout themselves as perfectly suitable for those with sensitive skin, rosacea or acne.

Did You Know?

Trying to follow the mineral makeup maze? Here’s a primer (no pun intended): According to an article on the Orange County Business Journal site (dated 10/22/07), Diane Ranger, founder of Colorescience, also founded Bare Escentuals in the late 70’s. She ultimately brought in Leslie Blodgett in 1995 to become Bare Escentuals’ CEO, and Blodgett in turn created the BareMinerals line. Still with me? Ranger also owns Body Chemistry Manufacturing, Inc., which has also made makeup for Jane Iredale. Whew!
