About Tracy Ariza, DDS

Content: With some colors like black, it really didn’t look too bad, and the makeup spread pretty easily. After doing some more experimentation, though, I found that adding in some bentonite clay allowed for a more opaque and less shiny makeup that more easily spread on the skin. Adding the clay helped give better coverage without needing to add as many colorants. I tried using other clays like kaolin clay when making white makeup and red clay when making a red makeup stick. Colored clays work relatively well for coloring the makeup, but I prefer the texture that bentonite clay gives the makeup. Clays can be found in various colors. You can use other clays in elaborating the makeup. I used white kaolin clay to make a bright white makeup stick. In most cases, I preferred using bentonite clay along with other pigments.

There are many “natural” colorants that can be used to add color to the main makeup base.
