Recipe for all natural ingredients eyeshadow and makeup?

I was just curious if anyone knew of recipe(s) for eye makeup (eye shadow), and some kind of powder foundation? I've been experimenting with corn starch and some other things and found that it ';almost'; does the trick, but that I need to find something to powderize the stuff more that I mixed in with it. It was just out of curiosity. The ';mineral'; makeups got my curiosity... my daughter was making powder from rocks in the driveway and putting it on her face and I wondered if that particular substance was harmful, or if that, is in essence, what those ';minerals'; are?





It would be kind of cool to mix my own makeup at home, in any case. Just trying to figure out what I can use, that won't cause problems. Ideas? Thoughts?Recipe for all natural ingredients eyeshadow and makeup?
vaseline and baby powder creates instant white eyeshadow.








Part one:


With Mortar or bowl and spoon, thourghly mix the following together:


5.5g Corn starch (2.5 tsp)


13g Arrowroot Powder (5 tsp)


2g Magnesium Sterate (2.5 tsp)


6ml Jojoba Oil (1 1/4 tsp)


Part one is a base batch in which you will only be using a small amount for this first recipe. Put part 1 into a sterile container and


make sure it is closed tightly.





Part 2


In Mortar or with spoon and bowl mix the following very well:


1.3g Arrowroot powder (.5 tsp)


2 drops Jojoba or castor oil


NOW take 1 tsp of part 1 and mix well with part 2. Once you have


achieved a homogenous mixture add Part 3


Part 3


1g Pigment (.5 tsp)


HOW TO BLEND PIGMENTS


Using the back of a spoon and a bowl press all the ingredients as you are mixing them against the side. If you are using a sparkle or glitter pigment be sure not to crush the mix. If the shade is too dark add part 1 at small increments (and I mean pinches) till you get the


color that you like. My friend suggests developing the color you like first and them adding just plain arrowroot powder to see what the color will be (this is not exact but will give a good idea).


Hope that you enjoy making the eye shadow!
