Stript marine mineral make-up contains the latest innovations in plant-derived preservatives called Natural Broad Spectrum Microbial Growth Inhibitors. Gina Austin, founder and creative director of Stript Cosmetics, also identified the best ingredients that nature has to offer and incorporated them into her cutting-edge formulas. For example, Stript contains luminara digitata (marine algae), renowned for being rich in antioxidant vitamins. The fibers of gossypium herbacium (cotton) coated with specially milled mica minimizes the metallic shine associated with traditional mineral make-up. The mineral boron nitride creates a soft-focus optical effect which naturally beautifies skin. And this is just to name a few. Throughout this catalog, Gina has highlighted many of the natural ingredients that make Stript unique.
