Help and FAQs

All Earth offer a simple and versatile range that is enough to create a quick and convenient look for everyday women and men who would like a simple look right up to make up enthusiasts who like a more detailed look and full coverage. The products contain a perfect balance of mineral and botanical ingredients that are kind and beneficial to sensitive skin, give such great long-lasting coverage and are so comfortable to wear it doesn’t feel like you are wearing make up at all. We also care deeply about animals and the environment, so all our products are vegan friendly and cruelty free, all of our specially designed kabuki brushes are synthetic and our beautifully designed packaging is eco-friendly with our unique biodegradable refills.

All Earth minerals are pure minerals.  Every ingredient we use is for the benefit of your skin – to create high performance products that support and protect your skin whilst being light and breathable. There are no cheap fillers used such as corn-starch or talc’s, just top-quality pure minerals and botanicals are used. Please see ingredients list on each product.

All Earth use only pure ingredients which is healthy for the environment in manufacture and we use abundant, ethically sourced minerals.  we use minimal outer packaging and although our mineral pots contain some plastic for safety standards and oracticality, we offer biodegradable refills, so you can keep, refill and reuse the pot.  Our skincare is packaged in fully recyclable aluminium and glass.  For shipping we pack orders in Biodegradable and recycled bags and boxes.

All Earth Minerals are made with pure minerals – ground up rocks.  Because these are not grown, like fruit and vegetables, for example, they can not be certified organic. For a product to be certified as organic, they need to contain 70% of an ingredient like rice powder or corn-starch.  This would diminish the value of the minerals and the make-up would not feel light, give great coverage and would be irritating to the skin and lose the SPF.  When it comes to mineral powder – certified organic is not best.

All Earth Minerals are very gentle and contain natural anti inflammatory and moisturising ingredients, they can be beneficial to sensitive and problematic skin.  We have not yet had any complaints of allergic reactions to our products. If you are unsure please check our ingredients lists for any ingredient you think you may be allergic to, consult a skin therapist for advice or do a skin test.   We offer refunds if you find you are allergic from the skin test. Even if you have reacted to other mineral loose powder brands it may not mean that you are allergic to ours as they all contain different types and grades of mineral ingredients.  Our 3 in 1 natural face cream has also been created to be kind to the most sensitive of skin.

Due to the blend of mineral ingredients our foundations have exceptional coverage depending on how they are applied (please refer to our ‘how to videos’). They will cover rosacea and even out skin tone and, if applied after our 3 in 1 natural  face cream and are applied with our specially designed kabuki brush, they will even out dry and oily patches on the skin. They will cover blemishes but be mindful of scabs from spots, eczema and psoriasis, no product can cover a scab. However due to the natural antibacterial and anti-inflammatory ingredients in our foundations they can act as a treatment to problematic skin. Depending on the severity of the skin issue the products can help to clear up blemished skin when used regularly and you would find your skin is healthier and more blemish free in the long term.

We have made our foundations to be flattering on all ages including mature skin.  It will not accentuate lines and wrinkles or look dry on your skin if it is applied correctly, please see our ‘how to’ videos for guidance on this.  Our minerals have been made to be very highly pigmented so will mix with certain consistencies to create different finishes suitable for different skin types and ages.  If you are not getting an amazing look on your skin it may be down to how you are applying it, let us know and we can help.  Your All Earth Minerals will look even more beautiful 30 minutes after application as it blends with the natural oils in your skin.

For more mature skin we recommend avoiding using our illuminator on fine lines as this can accentuate them more.

Yes, our minerals have been made to be very highly pigmented so can be adapted in application to suit any skin type and create different coverages to suit, also to mix with various consistencies such as water, creams, serums etc to create different finishes suitable for different skin types and ages. Please see our ‘how to’ videos for more information on this.  There are properties that help matt oily skin and properties that help moisturise dry skin. Our 3 in 1 natural face cream has been created to work on all skin types, just adapt how much you apply – please see ‘how to’ videos for this.

Because our loose minerals contain allantoin our recommended shelf life is 18 months but can last longer than this when kept in room temperature conditions and out of direct sun light.  Our skin care is 12 months maximum shelf life as long as kept away from direct sunlight due to its natural properties. 

We use allantoin in our products as well as Kaolin, both of these ingredients are an anti inflammatory which calms the skin so the products are not only safe for sensitive skin, they are beneficial. These 2 ingredients are also known to moisturise, heal and preserve the skin after regular use and are ideal for people with sensitive and dry skin and for those prone to Acne, breakouts and Rosacre

Yes, we do use high quality mica in our products as this is a rock/mineral that offers beautiful luminous qualities.  Our mica (like all ingredients) is free of nano particles and the purest cosmetic grade mica available.  It is not coated in any artificial dyes or colourings and is sourced from countries that do not carry out child labour.

All Earth mineral products are made in Cornwall and Kent and skincare products are all made in Cornwall.
