Thanks again for the tip and info, Rachel … I may check out the canary
prices again. I don’t know if either or both would irritate me, but hearing
from
those who do have the experience is why we all come here. I’m so grateful for
this group of helpful and caring folks.

There's a number of forums over on Delphi Groups that discuss mineral makeup, and I don't remember anybody having problems with mica, but a lot of people have problems with bismuth. Like anything, your mileage may vary! Rachel Hi Katie,

anybody having problems with mica, but a lot of people have problems
with bismuth. Like anything, your mileage may vary!

This is what I found about Mineral Secrets ... <The minerals are pure Zinc & Titanium Dioxide. The products are free of talc, mica,  fragrance, wax,  oils & perfumes as well as chemicals. You will not &   cannot be sensitive or allergic to Mineral Secrets!!!! What a relief! Our mineral make-up is the only one on the market that does not contain the mica that is so irritating to highly sensitive skin types.  Mica is also "shiny" looking. So we left it out! > I do know that other mineral cosmetics on the market do contain bismuth and/or bismuth oxychloride, but Canary Cosmetics contains mica, also ... if I'm missing where to find accurate information on Mineral Secrets, please let me know. <!--more--> - Katie Hi Rachel …

A lot of them have bismuth and/or bismuth oxychloride. I just looked at mineral secrets website and its one of their ingredients. I have acne, and I tried a lot of different mineral makeups before I figured out it was the bismuth that was making me break out. I finally found Canary Cosmetics, www.canarycosmetics.com, which doesn't use bismuth. My skin is much better since I started using it. And, canary's a lot cheaper than other mineral makeups out there. HOpe this helps! Rachel If you’ve got acne you should be careful about which mineral makeups
