(Los Angeles, CA) ??” June 20, 2003 – La Bella Donna, the original mineral makeup collection, has introduced their dynamic, fresh-off-the-beach-blanket Get Glowing Collection.

Lauded as one of the most appealing product lines for achieving a natural, sun kissed glow, La Bella Donna’s galaxy of mineral packed shadows, blushes, and bronzers have been favored among the world’s most exclusive spas, cosmetic surgeons, and dermatologists for more than a decade.

A glamorous glow starts with La Bella Donna’s delicious new Compressed Mineral Foundation ($45) in Caffe or Sophia. This oil-and fragrance-free formula contains a wealth of natural minerals. The sleek, silver compact is perfect for travel and seductively slips into an evening bag for touch ups. Use wet for maximum coverage, or dry for a luminescent glow.

Then add a glint of summer to the lids with La Bella Donna’s Mineral Eye Shadow ($19) in Brownie or Nude to add dimension and a soft, shimmering look.

Two innovative new blushes sure to add a radiant glow to your face come next. Mineral Cream-To-Blush ($30) in Bianca is a luminous, lightweight mineral based blush that adds luminosity to cheeks. Formulated with exclusive hydrating ingredients, including vitamin E, as well as the line’s signature pure mineral pigments (micro-pulverized from rock and jet-milled for incredibly smooth consistency), the gentle, silky mineral cream actually soothes the skin as its light-refracting properties reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Then on to dusting a lucious dose of La Bella Donna’s Loose Mineral Foundation ($45) in Caffe or Sophia. Formulated with pure minerals free of FD&C dyes, oils, preservatives, fragrances or talc, this signature product allows skin to breathe while blocking out the sun’s damaging rays (SPF 20).

Sun kissed lips come ala Mineral Light Lip Colour ($22.50) in Cocoa, Copper, Burnt Orange, Shell, Pink Sand or Nude to create a golden shimmer that perfectly compliments your all-over glow. Formulated with Ceramide 3 to keep lips hydrated, this mineral-based lipstick is moisturizing and keeps lips smooth.

Top off with high-shine Lip Sheer ($22) in Terra Cotta, Crystal, Mandarino, Plum or Bianca and you’re ready to go. These delicate lip glosses are designed to be worn alone, or on top of lipstick to add a gleam of sophistication. Combined with La Bella Donna’s Lip Pencil ($20) in Naturale you can create a fun, feminine pout.

La Bella Donna boasts a galaxy of celebrity devotees, including Jennifer Aniston, Sarah Jessica Parker, Courteney Cox-Arquette, Debra Messing, Britney Spears, Kim Cattrall, Christina Applegate, Rachel Blanchard, Daisy Fuentes, Stacey Dash, Bridget Fonda, Lucy Liu, Lisa Rinna, Kelly Rutherford and Brooke Shields.

La Bella Donna is a revolutionary concept in cosmetics. Harnessing the power of minerals that behave like makeup, La Bella Donna’s formulas are truly healthy for the skin. Mineral pigments create a soft, shimmering shadow, and micronized Titanium Dioxide, a naturally occuring sun block (SPF 20) provide environmental protection. Iron Oxide is the source of colour while Bismuth Oxychloride and Zinc Oxide act as anti-inflammatories. La Bella Donna products are completely free of harmful FD&C dyes, oil, talc, alcohol or fragrance.

Headquartered in Los Angeles, La Bella Donna was developed by style-conscious mother and daughter team Kathy and Nicole Tracy as a healthy alternative to traditional makeup.

The pioneer of mineral-based cosmetics in the United States, La Bella Donna was initially only available in premier destination and day spas. Dermatologists and plastic surgeons recommend it for laser post-op coverage and for women with sensitive, problem or allergy-prone skin.

Today, La Bella Donna is also available nationwide at the finest spas, resorts and specialty stores, as well as Bergdorf Goodman in New York.
