Satjya Natjaru has formulated a traditional eye paint blend from cosmetic grade malachite green mica mineral with zinc oxide to protect from the sun’s damaging rays.

It’s a decent eyegloss, but I think this formulation would work much more nicely with a cosmetics-grade ocher as a rouge for lips and cheeks.
