What better way to care for your skin and hair than with products so pure they’re practically edible? When Anita suffered a harsh reaction from using a so-called ‘safe’ synthetic hair lotion, she set out on a mission to create her own line of natural hair and skin care products. Since its launch in 2005, self-proclaimed ‘ingredient junkie’ Anita Grant has created environmentally-conscious cosmetics for her eponymous brand. mineral makeup for dark skin

To all the ladies who love and miss Prescriptives, they are only selling the bestsellers online at their website http://www.prescriptives.com. I can still get my beloved Mineral makeup in Level 5 Warm, Yay!! They do not have every color available. Let’s just say that they do not have colors for the darker skinned black woman. All of the shades only go up to Level 5, not to Level 6, which is for darker skinned black women. The Virtual Matte pressed powder is the only product that goes up to Level 6. Another great alternative is Black Opal cosmetics. I have been using that too, and I love their foundation, powder, and lipstick and the lip gloss. Go to http://www.blackopalbeauty.com It’s affordable, high quality makeup without the high price tag.

A year later and i’m still missing the Prescriptives foundation stick, warm ginger, the best thing that I bought, the thing was that I would use it as a lipstick, bc it had be colour for asian skin and the matte finish of the foundation was the greastest. Want you to come back.

I do am extremely disappointed and down right angry at Estee Lauder for shutting down this perfect line. Too bad all the attention went to Clinique and Estee Lauder. Prescriptive products are so superior to any of the other Lauder brands. Estee Lauder marketing department should be ashamed of themselves for ignoring Prescriptives and letting it slip away. Estee Lauder has lost many long time customers with this decision.

Very disappointed with the Estee Lauder company. Prescriptives is the best makeup line around. Just stocked up on the Mineral foundation in Level 5 Warm, the Immediate Glow toner and the Fresh Foaming Cleanser. I do not like MAC Studiofix in NW45 because it’s too orange and heavy. Clinique sucks and Bobbi Brown is too yellow. However, I do love Fashion Fair. Prescriptives and Fashion Fair are the only two cosmetics lines that look good on my skin. I contacted the Lauder company via email, and they actually responded!! So sorry to see PX go. It was the first high end makeup I ever bought.

devastated. finding the right foundation can be a traumatic and expensive experience. Prescriptives helped me find my makeup way. Have used them for over 10 years and would have been a life long customer. Trendy products cannot beat that. Just spent over £100 stockpiling my favourites.

Heard of the withdrawal! Sad…
I’ve been using their Good to Bed moisturizer with excellent skin softening results! Where do I get a similar one now?
