Mica has been used since prehistoric times throughout the world. Ancient Egyptian, Indian, Greek, Roman, Aztec, and Chinese civilizations have used mica.
Mica can be naturally found throughout the world. However, some sources of mica may be controversial. In 2016, mica mined in the Jharkhand state in India was found to be using child labor.

Really nice! I've only been using it for a few days, but it totally calms down the redness in my cheeks.
I have very sensitive, rosacea-prone skin. My redness issues have almost disappeared since discovering Clinique’s Redness Solutions cream. I include it in my AM routine, and what a difference it makes! It absorbs quickly, and my skin feels fantastic throughout the day. Redness and sensitivity are gone! 😍
