MYKA: Organic handmade make-up


While attending St. Edward's GLBTSA Fashion show this past Tuesday, 4/08/08, I came across Myka, who helped sponsor the event. Myka is makeup, lotions, scrubs,etc. that are made by hand! The makeup is compounded with natural clays and starches instead of yuckytalcs and fillers. Myka uses concentrated colorants and pigments and binds them to their own formula, creating a makeup that applies easily, preforms well and treats your skin while you wear it. Cool, huh? It is well known that mineral makeup is better for skin because it is light weight and won't sag your skin like heavy, oil-based makeup. Mineral makeup also has natural sun protection qualities that will help keep your skin looking younger longer by either deflecting and/or absorbing damagingUVA and UVB rays. Mineral makeup is illuminating and radiant, adorning you with a youthful glow, and it is heat and humidity resistant; making it an excellent option to look fabulous and sweaty at the same time! Female sport players rejoice!! But best of all, since Myka makes the colors by hand in small batches, they have total control over them. What that means for you is if you are allergic or sensitive to a certain ingredient Myka can make it without the culprit.

Another perk for you is you can design the color anyway you want it! If your goal is to match a dress (prom, bridal...), power suit, swimsuit, or even your shoes....Myka can do it, and it all happens right in front of you while you wait, in fact you can even mix it if you want! Myka writes down the recipe in your customer profile and it is your formula forever; you can even name it! Embrace your individuality and display your creativity -- naturally!

Shop for makeup, organic hair care, professional and natural skin care, bath essentials from leading natural brands or try one of our handmade organic spa products! Enjoy a fresh outlook on buying mineral makeup that is prepared on site and custom blended just for you. Imagine, now you can have an eyeshadow made in any color you design! Come in and talk with our professionally trained staff, take a class, host a private party or fundraising event. This store is tailored to accommodate the customer. Myka is brand new to the market, and ladies this is a wonderful line of makeup, scrubs, and lotions. I already visited the location, and bought several items. The staff is wonderful, courteous, helpful, and young! If you love looking and feeling beautiful and being environmentally friendly,Myka is the place for you! There is only one location in Austin so far since it is new, but hope to branch out all over Austin. The address is 5800 W Slaughter Lane Suite 330. The phone number is 512-706-9557. They are open M-F 11am-8pm. Sat 2pm-8pm. And Sundays open only for party or appointment.

I guarantee anyone who walks in there will be 100% satisfied with the service, helpfulness, effectiveness, and consistency. I would like to help spread the word about new, afordable, organic mineral makeup and more!
