The world of makeup is about re-inventing yourself.

And Salmon Arm makeup artist Missy MacKintosh is a master of that.

From make up sales rep to travel agent to full-time make up artist, MacKintosh has now moved into another realm 香蕉视频直播� CEO and creative director of her own beauty product company, MisMacK Clean Cosmetics.

香蕉视频直播淚香蕉视频直播檝e been in makeup for a while and the cosmetics industry is not regulated, so often you have no idea what you are putting on your face. I started researching ingredients and out of that came my desire for more natural products, things that are clean, ethically sourced and aren香蕉视频直播檛 going to do damage to your face or the Earth,香蕉视频直播� says MacKintosh.

Appropriately on Sunday, April 22, Earth Day, MacKintosh opened online pre-sales for the first two products in her exclusive makeup line: GlitterEnvi, a plant-based, biodegradable glitter eye shadow and Gaia Gloss, a dual -purpose product which can be a lip conditioner and also the base for the glitter.

The uniqueness of the product lies in that unlike other glitter products, it is biodegradable, with two of the glitters being made from wood pulp and the others being cornstarch-based. But there香蕉视频直播檚 no fear of the glitter breaking down while wearing it, as it is not water soluble. But when composted, the glitter breaks down in nine months.

香蕉视频直播淭here are people who said, you can香蕉视频直播檛 have a clean glitter. In fact some countries in Europe are banning glitter, because, like microbeads, it doesn香蕉视频直播檛 break down and it is getting into waters and oceans. That was the key, to find a formula that could offer a pro-quality makeup look, but that also is plant-based and won香蕉视频直播檛 harm the environment,香蕉视频直播� says MacKintosh.

The MisMacK glitter is the first of what MacKintosh plans to be a full line of green, clean cosmetics. She is starting with the glitter because the look is currently in high demand in the fashion world.
