Our Story

Since 1989 Images by Miriam® is owned and operated by professional world renowned makeup artists, aestheticians and international industry veterans Miriam and her daughter Ingrid.  Their journeys guide the philosophy of Images by Miriam®.  They used their vast experience as business owners of two full-service beauty and makeup spas, as well as managers of top cosmetic lines in NYC to quickly learn of the many impurities, harmful chemicals, and harsh preservatives that most makeup lines contain.

Ingrid worked as a former fashion model in NYC and internationally doing fit modeling,  bridal, runway, and magazine work.  As a model in the mid to late 90's, she watched her model friends struggle with keeping their complexion clear due to the chemical makeup that would clog the pores and irritate their skin.  This issue affected many models in the fashion and entertainment industry, inspiring Ingrid to create a pure and natural makeup line that would solve these problems. 

With the experience of also having worked for world-renowned cosmetic surgeons on Park Avenue in NYC, they saw the need for a good and natural post-surgical makeup.  All the makeup available had chemical ingredients that were causing allergic reactions, dehydrated skin, clogged pores, and was heavy and unnatural looking.  The make-up did not allow the skin to breathe or heal properly over time but actually worsened it.  With no other alternatives on the market, they set out on a mission to create a professional grade mineral line for sensitive skin with the finest in beneficial natural ingredients.  This revolutionary line would be used before surgery to prep the skin with hydrating nutrients to improve elasticity for optimal results and post surgery as a treatment coverage.  These superior ingredients would calm and soothe the skin while promoting the healing process.  The coverage would be undetectable and seemingly flawless.  Their extensive knowledge as cosmetologists along with the most prestigious laboratories and scientists with the latest unrivaled advanced technology and ingredients paved the way for their personal need to offer healthy, pure, highly effective, and luxurious mineral products for their clients.  

They were determined and committed to developing the highest quality of unparalleled European anti-aging botanical skin care, including the finest organic ingredients and the most advanced mineral makeup treatments.  Immaculate Minerals and Immaculate Anti-Aging were then born.  Their mineral makeup is very long lasting, highly pigmented, multitasking, and performs as a luxurious skin care treatment.  These treatments unite the finest and highest concentrations of clinical grade ingredients.  Botanicals, Vitamins, Antioxidants, Amino acids, along with the latest proven Peptides and Stem Cells are used to stimulate collagen production and improve skin elasticity.  These superior, unique, and all natural formulations allow the skin to breathe and treats skin such as Sensitive skin, Acne, Enlarged Pores, Rosacea, Sun Damage/Sun Spots, Melasma, Eczema, Dehydrated and Dry Skin.  Immaculate Minerals and Immaculate Anti-Aging products are used after clinical treatments to help accelerate the healing process while concealing and treating the skin.  All of the ingredients work in synergy as an advanced high-end skin care in color.
