Is Mineral Makeup right for me?

What’s the hottest consumer trend since Tickle Me Elmo?  That one’s easy – mineral makeup! Mineral makeup is a whole new approach to an age-old problem: how to get healthy, glowing skin.

Why minerals? Natural raw minerals crushed into ultra fine powders give skin a naturally glowing, radiant look while offering extra SPF. They also add luster to the skin and absorb excess oil!

Should I change to mineral makeup?

Give mineral makeup a try if you:

• Have sensitive skin or want a high SPF (Our Nature’s Minerals foundation has the highest on the market, SPF 25)

• Don’t need or want full coverage (mineral make-up usually provides light to medium coverage)

• Love a flawless, glowing finish (if you love a matte look, you’ll want to use a liquid or a powder foundation)

If mineral makeup sounds like your idea of heaven, here’s a few tips to make your look work:

• Use brushes designed for mineral make-up. Mineral make-up needs brushes designed to pick up ultra fine powder formulations and then distribute the powder for even coverage.

• Take your time. Until you have done it a few times, allow a few extra minutes to learn how to apply mineral make-up. The techniques take practice, but the results are worth it!

• Build custom coverage with layers. Use one layer for sheer, natural coverage and more for additional coverage.
