There are concerns over micronized nanoparticles in mineral makeup products and
sunscreens.  SunCat Natural Mineral Makeup does not use micronized Titanium
Dioxide, Zinc Oxide or any other micronized ingredient.  SunCat Natural Mineral
Makeup products
DO NOT CONTAIN NANOPARTICLES.  Nanoparticles are
usually defined as anything less then 100 nanometers.  A nanometer is 1/1000 of 1
micron.  Concerns about the use of micronized ingredients and nanoparticles have
raised the Skin Deep rating for both titanium dioxide and zinc oxide in loose
mineral products even if the products do not contain nanoparticles.

There are several grades and qualities of Mica. SunCat Natural Mineral
Makeup uses only uncoated premium cosmetic grade micas.  
Mica does not
indicate shine
.  The micas used in SunCat products range from a soft silky matte
mica to the more shimmering micas depending on the product.

There are several grades and qualities of Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide.   
SunCat Natural Mineral Makeup uses only premium cosmetic grades of titanium
dioxide and zinc oxide giving the products a soft creamy texture.  These premium
ingredients are custom blended and are not drying to the skin and are for all skin
types.

No Animal Testing is done on any SunCat Natural Mineral Makeup product or
ingredient
used in making the products.  All products are tested by me and my
human testing panel.
