I wouldn't be surprised about anything I hear about Bismuth OxyCloride!  I have another idea, though.  Are you certain it was bruises?  The reason I ask is because there are lots of reasons that the wrong mineral makeup could make you LOOK like you have bruises!

I make wonderful mineral makeup with NO bismuth.  I use silk, Aloe, and wonderful ingredients that are terrific for your skin!  I am working on my website, MoreMinerals.com.  Please call me at 503 747 5543 or write AnnnieHall@aol.com!  I love to help people with skin isssues.  I can send you some free samples, too!
