Smashbox Makeup Brand Purchased by Estee Lauder
Smashbox Makeup Brand Purchased by Estee Lauder
It's about time that Estee Lauder got it's hands on the failing Smashbox cosmetics line. When makeup or cosmetic brands seem to fail, Estee Lauder has purchased them at low pricing and brought them back to their livelyhood.
Reuter's announced earlier today that the Smashbox and Estee Lauder deal would close in July of this year, with many makeup artists, and users citing that they are excited to have Smashbox back to a real makeup company again with products the last, not fall apart during shipping or after one use.
MAC Cosmetics is just one of the well known makeup brands owned by Estee Lauder and now worth over $1 Billion. It's hopeful that Smashbox will be worth Estee's time in the cosmetic industry, but only time will tell.
Makeup Artist Rae Kat Switzer owner of Raesin Images Colour ID Mineral Makeup brand offered, "It's a great buy for Estee Lauder, and we definately hope the Smashbox brand makeups a turnaround. We've purchased a few of the Smashbox cosmetics products from QVC and they had fallen apart prior to even arriving for use. After we tried the Smashbox brand QVC offered a refund, but not on shipping, so that was sad, we contacted Smashbox and they were of no help either. What can we say, it's not like Smashbox was worth paying for, the products were terrible and we're really looking forward to a turnaround in the next few years. Mr. Max Factor the Celebrity Makeup Artist guru deserves that much, and it's too bad his great-grandsons ruined their chances by purchasing poorly manufactured makeup in the past few years."

Estee Lauder to buy Smashbox makeup brand -
It's nice to read about "NO MAKEUP" on celebrities, but let's get real, there are not many celebrities that do their own makeup and most of us do apply our own, and this is makeup news for the normal consumer like yourself.

Global Cosmetic Network website helps consumers
The new Global Cosmetics Network website helps consumers locate global cosmetics companies, including skin care companies, makeup brands, mineral makeup brands in private label, manufacturing, distribution and other B2B avenues.
Since the launch of the great world wide web, those interesting in operating a legal small business can do so with just the click of the mouse and locate the exact makeup, cosmetics, mineral makeup, or natural cosmetics manufacturing company that will suit their individual needs.
Directories are hard to locate for specific items such as cosmetics unless one wants to pay to advertise or use affiliate link programs. Global Cosmetics Network offers a free service to aide consumers.
If you are a cosmetic company, makeup company, mineral makeup company or other cosmetic company small business owner please help others by contacting Global Cosmetics Network Organization and add your company or service to the list. They can also be located with daily updates at Twitter http://twitter.com/CosmeticNetwork

Mineral Makeup Foundations Can Help Prevent Skin Cancer
Mineral Makeup Foundations Can Help Prevent Skin Cancer
The most important thing to remember when using any mineral foundation or chemical foundation with an SPF is you should still apply 1 other sunscreen product designed for your skin type prior to applying foundation makeup. This process offers the skin an extra layer of necessary sunscreen protection against lines, wrinkles, and skin cancer.
Most small mineral makeup companies can not afford to have their products certified so please make note of this when purchasing mineral foundation from the thousands of internet based companies. The above list of mineral foundation brands should guide you to certified makeup products.

Makeup Websites Brings Mineral Makeup Brands Together
Makeup Websites Brings Mineral Makeup Brands Together
If the best mineral makeup brand were easy to find, or if consumers all thought one makeup brand was the best, than there wouldn’t be a need for so many makeup or mineral makeup brands, right? Um… no. It’s just not that simple, so we’re here to help you find the best mineral makeup information and resources websites.
First is the new Mineral Makeup News website and makeup brands reviews blog. We’re not sure where their original blog was, but we know their new one is updated often, and makeup companies, mineral makeup companies etc that email them add their information and sales, so this is a handy website.
Makeup News is a relatively new website but their Makeup and Cosmetics News Twitter posts are up to the minute with makeup and cosmetics brands news from around the globe. Some companies I’d never heard of but they have it all.
Mineral Makeup Reviews Organization is one of the few makeup and mineral makeup reviews websites that we have seen that it’s full of affiliate pictures trying to get you to buy other brands on other sites to make a buck like the rest of the makeup and mineral makeup blogs and review sites we’ve been to.
The Mineral Makeup Resource website is another makeup blog site that seems to be getting going, but is sure to be a place for anyone needing quick facts on ingredients, products, brands, reviews, etc.
The Mineral Makeup Company website also has a blog set up, but their main site sells several different brands of mineral makeup, makeup, skin care, and other cosmetics. They do have off site affiliates to shop, but when offering site only discounts a sign up is worth it.
Rouge is the Proctor and Gamble makeup, skin care, and beauty magazine, it comes free, all you have to do is sign up for mail or newsletter service. We get it monthly and love it, free makeup coupons too.
The Global Cosmetics Network website just opened their blog. This site is still in the works, under our ownership as several others are, but we have had a nice buy-out offer, so just might be selling it soon. But do check it out as we try to keep the blog updated as well as the links for makeup brands around the globe.
Didn’t see alot in the way of Google makeup news, and never mineral makeup news since they stopped using news websites and started using cosmetic blog sites for news. No offense google, but um? Blogs news is just women talking, how about in-cosmetics for real cosmetics news 
and we do miss the Examiner Mineral Makeup News in the google news.
Whether you want to know what’s going on with MAC Cosmetics, Loreal, Estee Lauder, Boots in the UK, or Covergirl in the US, the above makeup resource websites will have the beauty brand information you need with maybe just a little Celebrity makeup looks and hoards of makeup application advice.

Best Discount Makeup Brushes Located
Best Discount Makeup Brushes Located
I just received my first order from KabukiBrushes.com and have to say that these are the best makeup brushes that I have ever found, and most of the makeup brushes I purchased were at leat 1/4 of the price of other discount makeup brush web sites.
Let me give you a run down of the discount makeup brushes I purchased....
When we first started manufacturing mineral makeup we needed our own line of mineral makeup brushes and brush sets, and didn't want to purchase from China or anywhere other than US companies.
KabukiBrushes.com is a great resource for all discount makeup brushes.
