Australian Mineral Makeup and Cosmetics Company, Alexami, Defies Product Shrinkage Trend

January 22, 2011 · Posted in Cheap Makeup Brushes · Comment 


Alexami Mineral Makeup Comparison Chart


Gold Coast, Australia (PRWEB) June 26, 2010

‘Product Shrinkage’ is on the increase across the globe, but one Australian natural cosmetics company is aiming to halt the trend. Alexami Cosmetics, a professional-grade natural mineral cosmetics brand distributed across Australian beauty salons, spas, hair salons, naturopaths, skin clinics and other beauty professionals, can only be bought in larger product sizes. This is because Alexami’s founder, Alenka Dirnbek, claims that excess packaging is both bad for the environment and misleading for consumers.

So what is product shrinkage, otherwise known as ‘packaging shrink’? It’s when a product’s contents get smaller, yet the packaging size and price remains the same. It’s becoming more commonplace as things like commodity prices, freight and production costs have climbed. Rather than pass on another price hike to customers, some companies opt to reduce product volume, yet this can be misleading for consumers because the actual size of the packaging may look the same, yet the content’s weight has been reduced.

In Australia, widespread customer backlash has occurred when popular brands of chocolate and beer have gone under the ‘grocery shrink ray’. But price per volume comparison is becoming easier in supermarkets thanks to the recent introduction of mandatory unit pricing, which is the display of product cost according to weight or other measurements, such as cost per sheet of toilet paper, to enable customers to more easily compare different sizes of the same product type.

Yet for goods not sold in supermarkets, no such mandatory laws yet exist. This makes it increasingly hard for consumers, and also poses challenges for environmentally and socially conscious brands like Alexami Cosmetics that strive to offer a larger quantity of quality product at what may outwardly seem like a higher price.

For example, Alexami’s signature product, a professional grade natural mineral foundation powder, bronzer and setting powder is 20g Net Wt, more than double the standard size of 8g and an astounding five times bigger that the increasingly common 4g product size. When Alexami Cosmetics initially began approaching its core target market of beauty salons and professional makeup artists to distribute the product, some expressed concerned about product pricing. Comparable products from other manufacturers seem cheaper when the packaging is compared side by side, when in reality the Alexami product is up to 60% lower in price when the price per unit volume ratio is evaluated.

As cosmetics sold outside supermarkets are not subject to mandatory unit pricing, it is up to consumers to do their homework. “It’s becoming more common for people to check labels to avoid toxic ingredients, so we’d also like to urge consumers to compare product sizing while they are shopping too,” said Dirnbek.

Alexami’s efforts to reduce packaging are just one factor that the brand has considered to become an environmentally sound choice. “All our packaging and marketing materials are printed with soy ink on recycled paper using 100% waterless print technology, we also offer product refills and larger product volume sizes to cut back on unnecessary packaging waste, and we use renewable bamboo and synthetic hair for our cosmetic brushes which makes our products cruelty-free and eco-friendly. Our aim is to give customers better value for money and help the environment by cutting back on things like extra jars, boxes, and labels,” said Dirnbek. It’s a practice she would like to see more companies adopt. “These measures also save on labour cost, and by offering refills and great value products, you will attract loyal customers as well.”

This forward thinking way of doing business is also backed up by research. Recognizing the relationship between consumer confidence and purchase behavior, a Nielsen Panel Views study in America conducted an analysis of 47,000 people across 36 product categories. The study established that decisions by manufacturers to shrink product sizes in order to prevent price hikes have overwhelmingly disappointed consumers, who instead seek larger package sizes with lower cost per unit weight.

The study also discovered product shrinkage shaved as much as 15-20% off product size, like 12 ounce bags (about 340 grams) of potato chips that had been scaled back to 10 ounces (about 280 grams), without a subsequent drop in retail price. Chocolate, breakfast cereal and personal products were the other main categories undergoing widespread product shrinkage.

As most of this product downsizing is done without public announcement, Alexami’s Dirnbek points out the only thing that consumers can do is be more wary of checking product sizing when purchasing, and support products that offer the best value to quality ratio. “When shopping I am always checking grams and ingredients. Price is not necessarily always what it seems. I want value, but I also want quality of course. Consumers need to check that only the best quality ingredients have been used too, because we’d all rather pay once than twice. If you buy something cheap and it doesn’t work, you then have to go back and buy better quality to replace it. So you pay twice and waste twice as much time. It’s better to do homework, research the content, look at weight, read descriptions and labels and make a choice based on quality and value for money.”

The entire Alexami range of professional grade natural mineral make up and cosmetics offer great value and are available exclusively through select stockists across Australia. Worldwide release dates are being scheduled for late 2010. For more information visit http://www.alexami.com

Fresher Look With Bargain Mineral Makeup

July 17, 2010 · Posted in Mineral Makeup Brushes · Comment 

Cosmetics have been there for ages. These have been utilized by both men and women for various purposes. Although these are more known to be used for vanity, some people who have serious skin conditions seek the help of makeup to conceal such dilemma. It doesn\’t matter whether you can only afford bargain mineral makeup. Its beauty lies on the application. You have to learn the techniques that will work best for you. This way, you will be able to use the material in ways that can help you achieve your desired result.

Setting Up the Right Amount of Foundation

If you are using mineral makeup, you don\’t need to put a lot f foundation on your face to achieve the desired result. But if you have a serious problem that you have to hide using the tool, then by all means, add some more until you are satisfied with the final output. Along with the makeup, you have to buy the right brush for you to be able to apply it flawlessly on your skin. For this part, you have to use a large brush with round edges. You can ask the salesperson who sold you the makeup for its applicator so that you will avoid all the hassles of finding them yourselves when you still have no idea even about how it looks like.

People with various skin types must be able to develop their own regimen on how they could make their foundation look fit for them. For example, those with oily skin must apply loose powder after the foundation to make sure that the oiliness won\’t show and you won\’t have to retouch often during the day. Those with dry skin must first apply skin moisturizer so that the foundation won\’t look cracked up once you apply it on your face. If your skin type is a combination, you must try out techniques that will work for you the best way possible. You must not tire out from the process until you find the one solution to your dilemma. Once you know how to apply the foundation correctly, the rest of the process will come as a breeze.

Putting On Makeup Blush

The blush will accentuate your cheekbone. This will also give a more defined as well as natural look on your makeup. You need a brush with more narrow edges for this part. You have to apply it in upwards motion, highlighting the prominence of your cheekbones.

Dealing with Your Eyes

This may be a hard part to put makeup on. Finding the right tones of eye shadow that will fit perfectly on your overall appearance may also take a lot of trial and error. But the idea here is to keep this in tune with the color of your other makeup. If you want your eyes to appear bigger, you can use eye shadows with darker colors and apply such near your lashes and lighten it up near your eyebrows.

Finishing Up with Lipstick

Sometimes you want to be daring and go for bolder colors of lipstick. Other times, you just want to be plain and simple and go for lighter shades. For you to be able to apply this evenly, you can use a brush intended for lipstick, the ones with very narrow edges, so that you can outline the contours of your lips. Do not overdo this part. Besides, you can always retouch this during the day if you feel like it\’s already beginning to fade.

The best tip that you must bear in mind in applying bargain mineral makeup is that people do not have to know how much your makeup actually costs. If have done it right, you will be noticed because of what you have achieved and no one would mind about its price.

The Mineral Makeup Blog Review

July 17, 2010 · Posted in Best Makeup Brushes · Comment 

Mineral Makeup Review : Cosminology Pressed Mineral Powder www.cosminology.com …rather, it’s called Cosminology You Rock My Cosmos! Mineral Complexion Compact™ ( what a long term! hahaha! ) I’ve been steering away as much as possible from pressed mineral powders, preferring the loose counterparts because loose minerals are just the purest form of mineral makeup – pressing them would mean binders and binders mean chemicals and so forth. But the thing is, I’ve been bugged endlessly by my friends for nice pressed mineral powders because they just don’t want the spillage in their bags ( loose mineral foundations can be quite messy, I have to admit ), and they want something more “compact” , travel, and purse-friendly. Dr. Dima’s Cosminology brand started from her own needs of camouflaging her skin from her scars – quite a similar problem of mine. I’ve found my answer in mineral makeup, honestly, and I can say that I would not be able to leave home without heavy coverage mineral makeup on – that is hardly noticeable as makeup – that is the main goal of mineral makeup. I was given a chance to try their line, and the first thing I’ve tried is, of course, foundation, which they have in pressed form. Let’s check it out and dissect it one by one. Ingredients – let’s check them out. Active Ingredients : Micronized Titanium Dioxide, Micronized Zinc Oxide. Ingredients : Kaolin, Magnesium Carbonate, Zinc Stearate, Jojoba Esters, Palm Oil Esters, Tocopherol ( Vitamin E ). May Contain : Mica, Iron Oxides, Ultramarines, Chromium Oxides. For the ingredients, some might be happy to see that there is no Bismuth Oxychloride which is a potential irritant for some, and talc, which is one ingredient that mineral makeup a ..well, not mineral makeup in the first place. I see Jojoba Esters there, which is a great ingredient that “concentrates” the mineral foundation – for more coverage, that is good for those who have acne and dry skin, because it won’t dry out the skin and yet it prevents the clogging of pores. Jojoba oil is noncomedogenic in the first place. I see no preservatives and chemicals here, but I don’t know if Vitamin E would be an issue – it is supposed to be a good ingredient, but for some who break out with it , it might be not . Palm Oil Esters sound a little bit foreign but they are oils used to make soap ( lengthen their shelf life ) , so these two ingredients just depend on the user if they would cause them to break out, or not. They are potentially harmless, but maybe a little bit harmful for those who are sensitive or have reactions to them. Shades Cosminology seems to have just a few shades of foundation in the website, but each shade can cover, or adapt to alot of skin shades. Some notes on my testing : AstroTara is very fair, and for the yellow-toned. This is for fair to fairly light skinned users. AstroVenus is for light to medium and for the yellow-toned. This is my shade – I thought that this would be light on me since my skin had tanned during the summertime, but it adjusted well on my skin. This can be worn by those who are yellow-toned, using light to medium shades. Their rosy-tone counterparts ( those with reddish skin ) can check out AstroDana ( light to medium ) and AstroThena ( medium, a bit tanned ). Darker shades include AstroVesta and Astrovati. Coverage and Performance Before I start on my review of how it fared on me, let me just say that it just felt weird that I have a compact with me and there’s a mirror! ( I haven’t brought mirrors with me for a long, long time already and relied on those in powder rooms ). I ditched the powder puff immediately because I’ve been too spoiled with kabukis and flat top brushes that give me great results as I use those wonderful tools. This time, I’m using a synthetic kabuki brush. To my delight, powder came off easily from the pan at a gentle swipe, as opposed to some pressed powders that need really rough-bristled makeup brushes to be able to get some product. This was easy. *wink*. After applying my usual cream eraser – finishing powder ( with silica ), I applied the mineral powder like how I usually apply my loose mineral foundation. The coverage was medium, but it is buildable as you add more layers until your skin has full coverage already. The finish is matte, but what surprised me was within a few minutes of applying this on my skin, my skin looked pinched, refreshed, and very well-rested. This was an effect that I did not expect at all. My mom commented that my skin looked good that time, so I decided to use it for the press events that I have been attending last week. Staying power’s moderately okay – lasts normally for about 5 hours, but hey, you can always retouch because you can take your compact anywhere with you! Just always remember to use an oil blotting sheet before re-applying – what I hate most is mixing dirty, oily skin with mineral powder. I just feel so icky with the thought of that. Last Words To sum up, I like Cosminology’s You Rock My Cosmos! Mineral Complexion Compact no matter how hard it is to remember the name, so I shall call it Cosminology Pressed Mineral Powder ( haha! ). For me, in all honesty, this has got to be the best pressed mineral compact that I have ever tried ( I’ve tried about five brands already and this is the sixth ) because it does not make me itch, it gives me a natural, healthy, flawless finish, and it stays just great on me. As for the sample-friendliness, the price is not that low, though, it comes at a $38 pricetag, and they don’t offer samples. Those who want to take a leap of faith might want to try this one – I really, really, really love this product and would not mind repurchasing again if it runs out – just because it’s perfect to fit in my purse, and I’d want something to bring around with me mess-free at times, that gives me great-looking skin!
