Organic Fertilizers
Is there such a thing, you may ask? Yes, and you are the one to make it. You can actually perform composting on the materials found on your garden. You can use fallen leaves and twigs, animal manure, but this will depend on the type, and many more.

Organic Pesticides
This type of gardening wants, as much as possible, to stay away from pesticides. But if you can't afford to pick the insects one by one by your bare hands, then you can go to your local grocery store and ask for an organic pesticide that is available commercially.

The old way really is to be vigilant with your garden and take off every pest that you see. You should only turn to the organic pesticides when it becomes too many and uncontrollable that you can no longer handle. You can also try to bring in the animals that feed on those pests. This way, you'll have some help in picking those pests up. And that is also helping the other animals satisfy their hunger.

As a hobby, this may be time consuming. So if you cannot devote enough time into it, might as well find a partner or drop the idea until you've found the right time to carry on with the tasks.

Organic gardening really entails a lot of hard work. So you better be prepared to perspire in the process. To ease your tiredness when you are already into it too deep, just think that what you are doing is helping nature. This is your way of giving back what nature has bestowed on you since the day you were born.

Organic gardening can very well pass up as a hobby for starters. This can be true if you are the type of person who has the passion for gardening. This may not be everybody's cup of tea. So consider yourself lucky if you are among those who can grow green things out of the blue.

Gardening requires certain skills. You have to know the type of soil, what kind of plants you can place on them, how you will take care of those plants, aside from the many other considerations that you must be aware of when you are serious about it.

It may sound complicated enough for the beginners. But if you have been marked as the one with a green thumb and you've already honed you skills on this, then you might as well try the organic way of gardening. This method is particularly special as well as hard. It will require you to double your effort as compared with the regular stuff that you do with the usual gardening tricks.

The Concept
The basic rule on this type of gardening is that you will only use synthetic products in all your endeavor with regards to the task. This will include the important elements such as the fertilizers and the pesticides.

You can actually get from the earth what you will then use for your organic venture into gardening. You will use such elements to be able to grow something new, these are your plants, your vegetables or whatever greens you may want to grow. Do you get the picture? To look at it from a bird's eye view, it is like working closely with nature. Or as others may say, this is like being one with nature.

From there, you can use other mineral makeup products such as lipstick, mascara or eye shadow so that when you look in the mirror, you will look absolutely gorgeous.

One thing you should remember about using mineral makeup is to choose the right kind of brush. This is because the brush is the best tool to use to cover large areas of your face and if you decide to use a cheap one, people will notice it. So to avoid the embarrassment, buy one that is decent even if it costs a bit more that what you are used to buying.

Mineral makeup has revolutionized the cosmetics industry even if it has been around since the 1970’s. This is the first of its kind that does not use any harmful substances since it is all natural so you are sure to look good from resources that are pure from the earth.

It is also great to use if you suffer from acne, eczema or any other skin condition because it does not contain the same amount of ingredients found in traditional make-up. These even have soothing properties to heal such conditions and protect your face and your skin from the sun’s harmful rays.

So what are you waiting for? Get a few mineral makeup products and experience the change just like others have already done. You won’t regret ever buying it and if one or two of these give you an itch, try out another one that will not give you the same side effect.

How to Apply Mineral Makeup (part 1 of 2)

Is this the first time you are using mineral makeup? If it is, then you should learn how to apply this correctly.

Before you put this on your face, you first have to moisturize your face. One thing you should know about mineral makeup is that the powder adheres to the natural oil of your skin so if your face is too dry, the powder might end up looking like what is inside the bottle.

Now apply lotion and wait for ten minutes because if you have an oily face, it will melt the make up. Just how much should you put on your face? It depends so you have to find out the correct amount through trail and error to achieve the right balance.

Open the mineral makeup foundation and a small amount into the cap of the bottle. If this is too much, try putting in your finger and add more if needed. Then you apply eyeliner and use your kabuki brush to dust off any powder droppings from your cheeks.

There may be some dark spots under your eyes or around your face so dab it with enhancers. Again, use your fingertip to get a small amount then apply this over the targeted area and make it look brighter.

With your kabuki brush, swirl it in the cap then tap the brush to dust off the extra powder. Apply this to your skin in a circular motion by first working on the cheeks and then moving off to the side of your face.

When you get the look you want using the foundation, it is time to apply the setting powder. The good news is that how you apply it is the same as applying the foundation so that should not be a problem.
